March 2025
One of the best examples of "more than bargained for". I expected a cheesy mix of Everlasting Summer (which I despise and disgust) and Scorn (which I enjoyed, tho it's kinda bad, but not as bad as it's told to be); I got a "sapid" story with a reasonable amount of easter eggs (most of them are straightforward tho) about a world that isn't overflowed with modern audience's degeneracy. Writing, visuals, vibes are above average, solid B+.

Sept. 2024
Masterful blend of Yevgeny Zamyatin’s “We” and David Cronenberg’s cinematic vision. This game plunges players into a chilling dystopia where individuality is suppressed by a totalitarian regime. The narrative is rich with philosophical undertones. The game’s atmosphere is hauntingly immersive, with detailed environments that evoke a sense of unease and curiosity. Overall, “Athanasy” is a fantastic game that challenges players to think critically about society, technology, and the human condition. It’s a must-play for fans of dystopian fiction and psychological horror.

July 2024
Athanasy immerses you in a bleak sci-fi world where humanity survives beneath the Earth's surface. This visual novel explores mature themes and unsettling questions, depicting eternal life as a debilitating disease called athanasy. The narrative centers on characters divided between strict quarantine measures and a yearning for freedom outside the claustrophobic City. Power struggles and desperation pervade the story, highlighting the harsh realities of enforced immortality. The game features captivating storytelling with complex, morally gray characters, and presents players with tough, morally challenging choices that add depth and replayability. As a visual novel, Athanasy relies heavily on reading and dialogue, with limited interactive elements. Its unrelentingly dark tone may also be challenging for some players. Also keep in mind, to explore different story branches, you will need to reread many parts of the previously read story. If you enjoy narrative-heavy experiences that delve into mature, unsettling concepts, Athanasy could be a compelling choice. Those seeking lighthearted adventures or a focus on direct gameplay may want to look elsewhere.
