At A Loss - Late Game Spoilers

I don't even know what I am trying to do exactly, so it feels kinda frustrating. I'm at a portion of the game where I'm roaming around a prison My inventory has: some magazines (traded one away), an empty fire extinguisher, an empty syringe, a threaded needle, some cigarettes and one bottle of antiseptic alcohol I am not sure how any of this helps me get anywhere. Please help even if it's spoilers....

As is tradition with Postmodern Adventures, the game offers a tightly written, atmospheric mystery that draws you in quickly and never lets go. Set aside a generous amount of time, because once you start, you'll want to finish it in one sitting. What begins as a straightforward crime investigation soon escalates into something much more complex, involving witches, cosmic gods, and cults. Jack and Harvey have great chemistry, and Harvey especially stands out as a sidekick who genuinely helps when you get stuck.

The puzzles strike an excellent balance in difficulty, never too easy or too hard, making it possible to finish the game without a walkthrough. Careful exploration and conversations with your sidekick are more than enough to solve the case on your own.

Edit: Forgot to mention that the game works great on Steam Deck. All you ever need is the right trackpad to move the pointer and the R2 button to interact. I played it from start to finish on the Deck.

The Dark Rites of Arkham is coming February 3!

21 Jan

Greetings, adventurers!

We've got exciting news: The Dark Rites of Arkham is launching on February 3rd!

There are two weeks left until Postmodern Adventures’ most ambitious game sees the light of day.
Featuring more puzzles and more playable locations, this adventure game is based on the works of H. P. Lovecraft. A detective investigation will take us from the streets of Arkham to a dangerous cult and even beyond the stars, as we uncover an ancient conspiracy that could bring an end to life on this planet.

As usual, the game will be accompanied by a free DLC featuring the soundtrack. 39 tracks of jazzy, folk, and dark atmospheres composed by Matías J. Olmedo (An English Haunting), capturing the full noir essence of the game.

Don’t forget to add The Dark Rites of Arkham to your wishlist!
See you very soon!

No French translation ??

it's not serious for a point & click which turns out to be really attractive. But hey, no translation = no purchase

It's not news to anybody who's read my previous reviews that I'm a big fan of Postmodern Adventures' particular brand of gritty storytelling. But with each release by the studio come higher expectations: will he be able to keep up the high standards he's gotten us used to? Well, that's a question for the next game, because right now the answer is a resounding YES. The atmosphere, the animations, the lighting, the MUSIC! are all top tier. I can't wait to see how the rest of the story plays out, but so far this feels like a classic already.

I loved it. The setting, the pixel art so detailed and full of effects, the city is full of life and the natural sets are beautiful... The music is incredible, it masterfully accompanies every moment of the game. The main couple, Jack and Harvey, have a lot of depth and you immediately empathize with them. The secondary characters have a well-defined personality and the dialogues immerse you in the story from the first moment.

Postmodern has faithfully captured the essence of Lovecraft during the investigation, which is becoming increasingly darker. One of the best adventures I've ever played

Missing achievement help!

Trying to get all the achievements but I'm having trouble with the Down in the Park one. I know it has to do with the bugs at Frank's stand but after putting the moldy sandwich down it doesn't let me do anything else with them. Has anyone earned this one yet that can help me out on how to get it?...
