I Am Dead CD KEYS günstig kaufen ab €2.04 🎮

Annapurna Interactive is clearly a company that knows what it is doing and what it is getting into. By working together with Hollow Ponds, they prove once again that they know what horse to bet on and they do it quite well. I Am Dead exudes something pure and profound through themes rarely dealth with in the video game industry. Despite some flaws mainly linked to an iterative mechanic and a gameplay that is much too discreet, I Am Dead remains a joyful experience that needs to be tried.

Simple but enjoyable activity aided by a fun object-slicing mechanic, fantastic voice acting, and a palpable love of worldbuilding and small-town life come together to create one of the most endearing British games in recent memory. It’s a cosy afternoon’s worth of fun, with the wonderful power to make you appreciate lives well lived.

I Am Dead is a hidden object game where players can get as much or as little out of it as they wish. Those following the story will find a short but simple game, perhaps too simple for some. The secondary objectives add more to do but seem like a compromise to keep adventure veterans entertained seeing as they carry very little reward. Away from the gameplay, I Am Dead dances around the raw emotions of death but deals with its impacts in a pleasant way. All living things must come to an end but memories can live on and have an impact on the future. Whether this game will be remembered in the future remains to be seen.

Overall, I Am Dead is still the solid title it was when it was first released on the PC and Nintendo Switch. While it’s short and the gameplay loop does get repetitive, the overall narrative, aesthetics, and audio turn Shelmerston into a beautiful location. Whether it was the traditions of the island, the history of its residents, or simply the beautiful locations, Shelmerston was easily the highlight of my experience. While I Am Dead ultimately explores the afterlife, including memories of those who have passed, I could not help but place greater interest in the overall setting and its residents, both dead or alive.

I Am Dead may falter and become tiresome in places, but it has a huge heart. It’s impossible not to be affected by its stories. It’s the people of Shelmerston who stick with you, far longer than the dissecting and zooming, and there’s a heartening message at its core: when you pass, the world will be immeasurably changed.

As well as the main quest of finding each ghost, each location contains numerous mini spirits called Grenkins, which have you moving certain objects into particular positions in order to find them. It's a neat way of adding collectibles that has you using the core mechanic in a different way. There's also Mr. Whitstable's riddles, which add a little challenge to each level. He'll give you a set of clues, and they each pertain to a specific thing in that stage, and could be anywhere. Sometimes the clues are too obtuse, but with thorough exploration and a little lateral thinking, the riddles add some substance to a rather breezy game. Wonderful art and relaxing music make the cherry on top of a unique and heartfelt cake.

Morris may be dead, but there's no denying that Annapurna Interactive's knack for publishing charming video games with unique gameplay is alive and kicking. Beyond its unique flavour of puzzle, there's a vibrant world full of characters who can't wait to share their stories. If you have the patience to do so, it's well worth hearing them out.

Spending time with the citizens of Shelmerston is incredibly charming and makes I Am Dead worth a look. With an unsatisfying conclusion and gameplay, which quickly grows a bit one-note, however, this won’t be a game for everyone. Still, if you want a charming little game to spend a quiet afternoon with, you could do far worse.

It’s the narrative and world around you that will keep you playing I Am Dead. The actual gameplay – seeking out objects by manipulating your environment – can feel rather monotonous rather quickly. If anything, I Am Dead feels like a more mature, more evolved take on the hidden object genre, and so it won’t appeal to everyone. But thanks to wonderfully-told stories and a bizarre but delightful mix of fantasy and grounded reality, this is a short adventure that’s fun while it lasts.

I'm surprised by the generally positive tenor of the critical discussion around this game. As someone who's a dedicated Annapurna InteractiveI'm surprised by the generally positive tenor of the critical discussion around this game. As someone who's a dedicated Annapurna Interactive fan, I'd been really looking forward to it from the trailer... existential subject matter in a colourful, charming seaside world? Count me in.But what I didn't know is that the narrative offering is hamstrung by several uniformly tedious mechanics: namely, slowly scrubbing through the characters' anecdotal "memories" to reveal each objects you need to find, and then searching the large, teeming, busy play area from top to bottom looking for each object. It's video game 'Where's Wally?'. In a bad way.Everything that the player must do to move the story forward is, unfortunately, boring. When you're stuck, you circle each area endlessly (couldn't there be a hint mode where your dog barks when you're getting warmer, or something?). Some of the item locations are infuriating. And so, progressing the story is drained of enjoyment.This is an awful video game.

Since Pac-Man and Donkey Kong, the first principle of video games has been don’t die. So when you find yourself dead before a game evenSince Pac-Man and Donkey Kong, the first principle of video games has been don’t die. So when you find yourself dead before a game even starts, you know you’re in for a different, gentler experience. I Am Dead opens with a walk along the beach so languid I wondered if my controller was broken. But within minutes, its invitation to slow down and smell the roses had drawn me in. It took me five evenings to complete the game, and I didn’t need my Headspace app that whole week.More than a game, I Am Dead is a meditation on life and love. In a medium not famed for nuanced depictions of relationships, it feels genuinely novel to see such a broad exploration of what love means. Yes, there are examples of romantic love, but also of love between friends, and of parents for children. There is love for fish and foul, love of land and of sea, love of art, and love of tribe. We witness love that is difficult and reserved, and love big enough to endure pain and sacrifice, along with happy and straightforward love. And then there is a sort of fourth wall love: the love that the makers of this game clearly poured into it, which you can’t help but be conscious of every time you notice another thoughtful detail. It’s these details that make I Am Dead brim with life. One room, filled with plants, each one individually realized and fondly labelled, made me gasp with the exuberance, with the aliveness of it all. Similarly, the lovely specifics of the seaside town filled me with a childish joy. Through the lead character, Morris, we are shown the truth of his namesake William Morris’ assertion that “the true secret of happiness lies in taking a genuine interest in all the details of daily life.”With the game’s core ‘slicing’ mechanic, its creators have come up with something that is both pleasing and profound. By holding down a shoulder button, you can zoom not just into but progressively through almost any object of the game, to reveal its inner structure or hidden contents. Not only is this endlessly fun to do (a good thing too, since you’ll be doing it hundreds of times), it brings the game’s big themes alive at a tangible level. When you zoom in to reveal a radio’s transistors, or the bubbles inside a can of drink, or the toppings on a pizza inside a box, you swoon at how rich our world is, how much unnoticed daily wonder permeates our lives. It is great to see the third dimension put to more interesting gaming use than normal: not for outer realism but inner truth.This richness is heightened by the other elements of the game. The script-writing is honest and cliché-free. The voice acting is touching and evocative. The music is simply beautiful, and perfectly fits the mood: slow, thoughtful, melancholy, yet warm. I particularly liked the way the game takes a quaint seaside town packed with enough English nostalgia to be a Brexiter’s dream, but populates it like a Remainer’s utopia: a happy and diverse collection of pan-sexual and even trans-species locals, immigrants and visitors. It is almost as if the slicing device, with its stark reminder that we are all just collections of atoms, renders our factional differences ridiculous and untenable. At the same time, its insistence that all objects have an inner life gives the game an Animist vibe in which everything has a spirit and everything is worthy of respect. As a result, it feels effortlessly inclusive and equalizing of men and women, straight and gay, human and animal, modern and ancient, animate and inanimate, vegetable and mineral, living and dead. All are part of the energy of the cosmos, and all have their role to play.If you’ve ever yearned for a video game that will move you to ponder the fundamental interconnectedness of all things, I Am Dead awaits you.

Literally unplayable. I've spent the last 20 minutes trying to get past the opening stage. There is no option to advance. **** this game.

Игра очень прикольная. Геймплей очень интересный из-за своей механики, саундтрек обычный, сюжет интересный, сложности есть только в нахожденииИгра очень прикольная. Геймплей очень интересный из-за своей механики, саундтрек обычный, сюжет интересный, сложности есть только в нахождении предметов на время. Управление сначала было непривычное, но стало удобным спустя время. Длительность средняя, и игра не затянута. Геймплей - самая лучшая часть игры со своей механикой проникания в предметы. Сюжет интересный, хоть и не раскрывает все вопросы. Мне игра очень понравилась, и я надеюсь, что следующий проект Hollow Ponds будет на том же или высшем уровне.

From its heartful story that is only made better by a charming set of characters, to the soothing atmosphere of the gorgeous island-town Shelmerston, I am Dead constructs a serendipitous but accurate portrayal of the usually sorrowful emotions around death.

Clearly a lot of thought was put into this game and it is enjoyable to discover that. Unfortunately, I Am Dead’s repetitive gameplay, awkward controls, and short story that left me feeling discontent made me overall a bit disappointed.

The simplistic gameplay can be underwhelming, but I Am Dead is a beautiful, well-written adventure that approaches the subject of death with warmth and compassion in what is really a celebration of life.

Beautiful, engaging, well-acted and well-written right up until the point where an ending would have been appropriate. But there isn't anBeautiful, engaging, well-acted and well-written right up until the point where an ending would have been appropriate. But there isn't an ending. The game really spends time spinning up this idea of a bigger story, but right when the bigger story should reach some sort of conclusion, credits roll. If you make the mistake of getting invested, you'll be rewarded with a middle finger.

I Am Dead is an incredibly cute little puzzle game where you get to go around an island you once lived on in order to try and prevent a volcano from erupting and destroying your home. Of course, you’re dead, but you’ll get to do all of this alongside the ghost of your dog Sparky. It’s cute, and the puzzles in the game are simple enough to not cause frustrating while still providing a satisfying challenge overall. This is definitely one to pick up if you’re hankering for something a bit different.

A great concept with mostly excellent execution, really only marred by a complete lack of satisfactory ending. The tragedy of I Am Dead isA great concept with mostly excellent execution, really only marred by a complete lack of satisfactory ending. The tragedy of I Am Dead is that after so much careful and heartfelt build-up (underpinned by meticulously crafted gameplay), the game ends with less than a whimper. I'm more than a little disappointed that the game gave up on telling its story during the last few minutes. In short, a great experience tainted by a complete absence of resolution.

Although the game can feel a little underwhelming when it comes to rewarding you for collecting all of the Grenkins and got a bit glitchy towards the end, the real reward from playing I Am Dead rewards you with good storytelling and a life lesson about life, death, and knowing where you come from.

Despite having one of the most morbid titles I have ever heard, I Am Dead is the latest example of game publisher Annapurna InteractiveDespite having one of the most morbid titles I have ever heard, I Am Dead is the latest example of game publisher Annapurna Interactive emphasis on heartfelt storytelling. Our story focuses on Morris Lupton, curator of the Shelmerston Museum, a small island off the North Atlantic and like the name suggests, he is no longer with us. But that doesn’t stop him from talking and more importantly, slicing through everything, and that’s the main feature of the game, being able to pick pretty much anything and explore into its very core.Morris is reunited with his deceased dog Sparky, who has gained the ability to speak to him as well apparently all animals can talk we just can’t understand them. But Sparky comes with a warning, Shelmerston’s volcano which has remained dormant for centuries has suddenly stopped being dormant and will wipe out the town, its citizens and even worse, all the tourists and their selfie sticks.The volcano is threatening to erupt because the custodian of the volcano is slowly fading away and it is up to Morris and Sparky to find a new spirit and ask them to take over. They have several people in mind, citizens of the island who have also passed away over the last few years and to converse with their spirits they need to find mementos from when they were alive. The mementos are introduced from the memories of the people who knew them well.In the several areas we explore with Morris and Sparky, we find people with thought bubbles popping out of their heads. This gives us a little trippy slideshow of this person’s memories with the recently deceased and the memento that we need to find, thankfully you won’t have to look under every nook and cranny in the area to find it as they are in the same vicinity. After finding five of them, we play as a flying Sparky who rounds parts of their spirit like an ecto-sheep dog, rinse and repeat until the credits.There isn’t much challenge or strategy with I Am Dead and honestly, there really doesn’t need to be. It’s more about the sights and the people we meet along the way, it goes to show that even after we’ve passed on we are never truly gone, our stories, our legacies will be remembered by the people around us, sometimes even for centuries. The design of the world is incredibly basic, with a simplistic vector style that doesn’t even have any shadows, but honestly, I don’t hold that against the game. Because the main spect of the game is to slice into all kinds of objects you are going to be seeing the inside of anything from watermelon to a walkie talkie, so pretty much all the objects in the world were created with a full inside as opposed to just an object layer with a texture on top. There is an added layer to at all with hidden secrets known as Grenkins, little hand-drawn creatures that pop up when you slice a certain object in a particular wayI Am Dead will only last you a few hours, but every moment is a heartfelt affair with some very interesting personalities living on the island like a Yoga Assistant Robot, a Glove Loving Fox or a Fishperson with a fondness for toast. For a game focused primarily on death and the afterlife, I Am Dead is simply brimming with life and much like the memories in the game, I won’t soon forget it.

A charmingly offbeat exploration and object finding game which is at least as much about its characters and their stories as it is the mechanics of your search.

Like Morris Lupton himself, it feels like I Am Dead doesn’t quite know what it is. It’s simultaneously an easygoing puzzle game, a gorgeously gentle but affecting set of homespun stories, and an intricate, experimental exploration experience. The beauty of this is that it never feels the need to commit to one focus – I ended up pivoting between all three ideas organically; playing, toying and learning by turn as I sifted through Shelmerston’s array of explorable still life objects. Neither Morris nor I Am Dead are perfect – but I sort of love them anyway.

I Am Dead has a very interesting story to tell, a colorful and varied environment in which to tell it, and a very cool way of going about the telling. The use of ghostly powers to explore, but never directly interact with the world, yet still solve puzzles was quite fun and unique. The more I unraveled of the mystery, the more intrigued I was and the more I wanted to know about each of the people presented to me, their lives, their connections, and the island they lived on.

I Am Dead is a delightfully quirky game about the afterlife, presenting a unique world with a rich history inside of it, all with a tone that’s a perfect level of light-hearted. While you may be able to breeze through certain parts of it, the whole game makes for a memorable experience, filled with enjoyable puzzles to solve, colorful tidbits to uncover and interesting characters to learn about. Certain parts of the story have Morris worried if he’ll actually be remembered now that he’s gone, and ironically, his story taking place from his death onward makes for a tale you likely won’t forget.

I Am Dead does a fantastic job of forcing us to look at our lives, and reminds us that those who are gone are still alive in the memories we hold dear. The puzzles are fun, and the island of Shelmerston is beautiful.
