Nov. 2024

Combine the storyline of Altered Carbon, the setting of Blade Runner, the narrative style of the Telltale Games series, and the detective mechanics from the Batman games, and you get Nobody Wants to Die - a truly captivating experience. If you enjoy the franchises mentioned above, this game is a must-play. The only drawbacks are its linear structure and a relatively short playtime of just 5 to 9 hours, depending on your playstyle.

I got this game after growing tired of the long and endless open world games with little to no story/acting and I wanted something short and sweet. I’m a big fan of the noir detective genre and Cyberpunk/Sci-Fi and I don’t think that combo has been explored enough in gaming. Nobody Wants to Die was a pleasant surprise and executed this mashup of genres extremely well. The graphics rival that of AAA games and the lighting and set pieces are just stunning. The world building was incredibly well done and the neo-1940s style was something I never knew I needed but I loved it! The soundtrack perfectly encapsulated the 1940s noir atmosphere despite being set in this futuristic nihilistic universe. But while I have nothing but praise for graphics, atmosphere and world building, which all get 10/10 from me, the gameplay gets a big fat 0. Gameplay is mostly non-existent and consists mostly of walking up to a highlighted objective and interacting with it. I’m not given the freedom to explore crime scenes and solve the case of my own accord but instead the game holds my hand every step of the way. Even though there is a separate menu to pick and use your various gadgets, I never needed to use it once because interacting with the objective would bring out whatever gadget I needed to use automatically. Sadly I felt like too much agency was taken away from the player in what could’ve been a compelling detective game. This also affected the story negatively since it’s impossible to fail solving the case since every clue has to be found at the crime scenes, and pieced together on the “evidence board” before progressing any given chapter. You cannot miss a clue and you cannot get anything wrong, causing different outcomes. Instead arbitrary dialogue lines is what can and will lock you out of getting the “good” ending. After playing through a second time, I can say both endings are extremely disappointing for what was otherwise a fantastic experience. Despite the caveats, I would highly recommend this game to anyone interested in a good story with fantastic acting, writing and world building in a beautifully crafted and unique universe. If you’re remotely interested in the genre it’s a must have but I would say get it on sale. I hope to see more from this developer in this universe because it’s unmatched!

Very interesting story, great looking graphics, and for the price this feels like a full AAA title. Very much worth the price even without a sale. 9.5/10

Nice detective story but the ending(s) could have been a lot better. A lot of questions left unanswered and the reasoning is not exactly clear. The setting is fantastic and the plot had potential to be deeper. If no DLC's or content are coming, then it's a real shame. Still worth playing for the cyberpunk incredible scenarios and interesting characters. PS: Devs please include chapters and skip dialogue/scene options for those that want to replay and get all achievements.

The game feels like a prequel to something really great. It has some great ideas , the exploration is nice , but it could be even better in the future , allowing the players to make some deductions and not just pointing you in which direction you need to investigate. I really hope that the developers will take the good from this one and will make a second game that will have the potential to become an all time classic. 8/10 game for me.
