What players say
Currently I enjoy playing 2.5 D puzzle platformers a lot and this is another one. Though I can recommend Black The Fall in general, there are some quite frustrating parts. I don't know through how many deaths my character had to go until I finally figured out how to solve some of the puzzles. Yet eventually it's possible (with trial and error) to find the solution. The atmosphere and graphics hit a certain tone...

I think this game would be a little better if it had violence like in limbo or inside, anyways good puzzles (it gonna make you feel stupid for searching gameplays every 5 seconds) and the story is incredible. Is way too dark sometimes to play with full bright if you can
Rather Simple mechanically, which I'd actually prefer in a game that's atmosphere and art based. Minimal at times to the point gimmick-territory, but honest about it's strenghts and leans into them. I'm not Romian personally, however, I could follow along and parse the story nonetheless. Good play and a banger soundtrack.
Steam reviews, mixed to its ratio and rotated daily. Opinions are theirs.
About the game
After decades of toil, an old machinist plots his escape from Communism, through manipulation and scheming. Along the road, he befriends the most unlikely creature, an abandoned robot. Could they solve the puzzles and flee this bleak world together?
