DOM RUSALOK PC Game 2021 review:
This game frustrates only one thing: you expect more. And from the gameplay, and from the storylines: it’s like a piece of something, such as a VHS cassette on which you watch a horror movie and suddenly bam
It wouldn’t be such a problem if there would be no hints for more. For example, a map with a choice of a library house. As a player, you expect to continue using it, there will be new locations and movements, but no. Excellent computers – but used to a minimum. Or even the name of the game: the heroes enter the “House of Mermaids” only once, and what kind of mermaids the boy-neighbor saw remains unknown.
The same with puzzles: the simplest combination locks turned out to be the limit, but we were worried at first where to get the passage in which case, because the game just came out, but we didn’t have to google anything. And this limitation, as if incompleteness, is so catchy! This is literally the most tantalizing game we’ve ever played. Naturally upset that the credits have begun.
This world is not enough. Visually, it’s just fine. Dialogue, flavor and lore, stories of characters that remain behind the scenes (after all, there was a pistol in a blue box, right?) And even their clothes – all this is done with love and understanding of the era.
Pros of DOM RUSALOK:
- A very tightly knocked down side-scrolling quest like Cat Lady / Downfall, just slightly inferior to these titles.
- Absolutely incredible glitch animations in the style of “damn spectrum” and “damn prefix cartridge” and in some places even “Teletext”
- This is a real balm for the soul of those born in the 80s – all the paths straight from childhood.
- And on the stage of a drunken quarrel between the parents of one of the heroes, a friend naturally broke.
