Honestly a brilliant game that deserves a much higher review score! The studio fumbled the marketing of this game by advertising it as a Point & Click adventure game, which it absolutely isn't, so I understand that frustration that caused others to review this game badly. The game is more of a set of difficult scenarios where you need to manage your team and resources each turn in order to survive and achieve some kind of goal. The game is difficult but it becomes much easier once you pay attention to the position and body language of each character. The game has a great plot, excellent writing and really cool world-building. You should definitely try it out!!

Interesting idea, but it gets boring quickly.

Gods Will Be Watching is not pitched well. Reading the store page made me think I was getting into some kind of point-and-click adventure game. That's not what this is. God Will Be Watching is a difficult resource management puzzle game with enough RNG to keep you constantly stressed. Without giving too much away, the game's difficulty and frustrating RNG is intentional. By the end of the DLC chapter, every clicks. If you accept the game for what it is, I think it tells a great little story with some strong character work in the final chapter and with gameplay that complements the story it's trying to tell.

This is probably one of my favorite games and I feel the need to explain why it's polarizing the audience as much as it does. It's a time loop story like Groundhog Day or Tomorrow War. There were, I think, six scenes originally, with an epilogue added later. You get through each scene by surviving to the end and making tough mortal decisions. Who gets shot? Who gets to eat? Etc. There is not a happy path for everyone. The difficulty of the original game was brutal and you'd really spend a several hours figuring out something that would in theory need a couple of minutes to complete. You'd learn how actions and consequences are connected. You'd memorize the order in which things happen. You'd need to learn to navigate the probabilities of success and failure of every action, and attempt to proceed regardless. Failure is intricately woven into every part of the story. Getting through it along with the main character is truly cathartic and unforgettable. But it was listed as a Point and Click, setting an expectation that you get through challenges by combining a rubber glove with a milk bottle and using it on a taco van to get a granite toothbrush you'll need later. In reality even a step by step guide wouldn't really work because things don't quite go the same way each time. Eventually the developers released a Mercy Patch with several easier difficulties because people feel entitled to win and complain vocally if they don't. This shifted the player base into giving up early and changing difficulty to easy, inevitably failing to go through the original intended experience. Now nobody is happy.

This game is extremely difficult to the point of being frustrating, half of it also completely reliant in RNG and you might as well be pulling a slot machine whether or not you win to the point of being downright unfair, the levels can be really long and exhausting 10/10 amazing game
