On every single part I see tentacles.Whats up with that?Also that 3 eyed shadow that shows up when you enter Loondon.There is one on the booth at the start.Also one under the priest in the church,and while the ending when the guy is walking away.One is on the sign

I can't decide what I love more -the storyline, the theme, the artwork or the music. They all come together to make a wonderful game!

What a poignant summation of the true inner qualities of the human race. I applaud you, game developers, for putting it out there in such a way that there is no mistaking it. Well done.

Lovely... "game". Well whatever it was I liked it. Would love to be able to choose multiple story paths such as 'save your friend' or 'save yourself' but still enjoyed it =)

The scene where he first sees Loondon with the apple on the tree... is it me or is it remarkably similar to Machinarium, getting into the city?

This story is truly sad. He is a person just like you and me. Someone shouldn't be judged by the color of their skin of how they look. They are just like me and you.The worst thing about this man is that he was blamed for something he didn't do. It was a great game with amazing poetry...Just completely moving.

Interesting. Let's analyze this allegory.
Carnival: Heaven (The gate says "PARADISO", Dante's name for Heaven)
Poster: Temptation (Looks fun)
Loondon: Hell (Everyone is very shallow, judgmental)
Hypnotizer: Justice (Will bring it to all... or none.)
Mechanic: Redemption (Sometimes, good people are in bad places)
Jonah: Mankind
In a way, this is an extension of Dante's Divine Comedy: Using some of the same themes, explores human nature. Very interesting, very compelling.

So sad. Poor Jonah. Such a good heart against so many cruel people. Such typical, hypocrites. Having a festival of happiness, but only for the "righteous and just." Yeah, OK, too bad the majority of society sucks and people are so fake.

wow, potent stuff, great art work, i really admire that, and a story that ofc isn't original, technically nothing is nowadays. i like it though, sometimes the simplest games are the best, and this is definitely in this group of games :D

This is a gorgeous game. I completely agree with Charybdis1618033. This is a lovely depiction of the dark society we have today; whereas if Jonah would have been 'beautiful' or 'handsome', this story would have ended at the gate. <3

This is very much like the hunchback of Notredame, except that the gypsy girl was hanged, not Quasimodo. :( This is so sad... *sniff.

A wonderful tale but please rewrite the poetry or remove it completely. It was so riddled with spelling and grammatic errors that it made the rest of the game less enjoyable. Maybe no text would've been a better choice?

I don't believe this is a game. I say this immediately as a lesson. I feel as if the author has displayed the crucification of Jesus Christ, a perfect person for imperfect people. I cried every time I play this game, knowing that I should have died for what I have done but someone gave their life for me.

Heart-stopping design, and a touchingly haunting storyline. Sadly, there is no game in this game - the player just "turns the pages".
