![]() The thing that’s wrong with the gameplay are some illogical puzzles and forced, meaningless tasks, but we can attribute that to the whole world of Deponia, which is totally freakish (literally a huge landfill), just like its inhabitants. In the first part of the game, the whole confusion with time travel in order to solve the puzzles is great, and it requires planning of actions so as not to go around in circles. It seems that there are plenty of new elements, and some puzzles and problems that are “global” and amazingly designed, and they bring innovations and changes to the way the puzzles are solved. The gameplay is standard, just like in previous titles, and classic for P&C adventures. Even if we ignored everything else, I would be glad for the revival of the series just for this. Cynicism, irony and mutual bickering are off the charts. Then imagine the quality of it in Deponia when the Germans were able to “hit” godlike moments like this. You all know what they say about German humor – there isn’t any. ![]() However, the thing where the writing really hit the right chord was the absolutely superb witticism of Rufus and the gang –it’s rare for a game to make me laugh out loud as much as the Deponia series does. ![]() This kind of introduction left us the impression of lazy writing for the sake of a franchise reboot, but it is what it is. However, in Doomsday, Rufus wakes up to find that all of it was a dream (yes, all 3 games), and that he is still in Deponia, trying to figure out the way to come to Elysium. First of all, anyone who hasn’t played the previous games should immediately play through the first 3 titles before even thinking of playing Doomsday, because otherwise you simply won’t understand anything, even some of the details in this article.Īfter ( big spoiler!) Goodbye Deponia ended with Rufus, the biggest selfish bastard, saving others by sacrificing himself, it seemed that the saga of Rufus came to an end. Then all of a sudden, the fourth part of the game was published, called Deponia Doomsday.ĭid developers from Deadalic Entertainment miss Rufus and the gang, or they missed the greens that the series brought, we can only guess, but in any case the result is that this March we can dive into the world of Deponia for the fourth time. It seemed that the story was complete, and that the trilogy became a part of history, slated for the video game hall of fame. Deponia first appeared in early 2012, and was then followed with sequels Chaos on Deponia and Goodbye Deponia. If you’re unsure which Rufus we’re talking about, he is the main character of a point and click series of adventures called Deponia, coming to us from Deadalic Entertainment, legendary Germans who gave new life to this somewhat forgotten genre. There may have been a few of course, but none like Rufus! Rufus, you rude, selfish rascal, how I missed you! We think that in the history of video games there never was a main character that you cared so much for, but that also annoyed you with his selfishness, stupid catchphrases and moronic ideas.
