    Honestly, I was looking forward to this game after reviews. But the writing is frankly embarrassing.

    The only saving grace is the unintentional comedy from the absurdity of the dialogue when playing it with friends.
    But even that grows stale after a few episodes.    … Expand

    Inconsistent characters. Too much political correctness.
    I do not recommend with all my heart.

    Terrible "game". There is barely any gameplay at all, even less than in telltale games. The story is boring, and the characters unlikable.
    To top it off, the presentation is horrible, with a questionable graphic style consisting of slideshows.

    They forgot to finish it. it just ends, with no real conclusion and a vague cliffhanger. everything after the motel is pure padding with a garbage romance and random side stories with characters you will not care about. The motel section is really the only thing of value, but it keeps flashing forward and backwards it makes the pacing feel really strange and can really rip you out of whatThey forgot to finish it. it just ends, with no real conclusion and a vague cliffhanger. everything after the motel is pure padding with a garbage romance and random side stories with characters you will not care about.

    also the style they are going for is VERY ugly. looks like storyboards. not a big deal but i heard one dude got sick watching it.    … Expand

    I'd love to give you my thoughts on the game, but a known bug limits my resolution to 1176x664. I continue to watch for a fix so I can enjoy the game properly.

    Aburrido hasta la extenuación, no es siquiera un pelijuego, es una presentación de diapositivas donde le das a opciones, Xbox está cada vez peor

    Отличная игра на пару вечеров. Интригующий сюжет, запоминающие герои. Великолепный звук и стиль. Жду 3ю книгу

    The overall good impression of the game is somewhat spoiled by its visuals, which, thanks to an unpleasant combination of static images and moving elements, lag behind the otherwise engaging story. [Issue#321]

    Stylish presentation and a hefty dose of nonlinearity spark the initial interest, but the humdrum narrative and simplistic gameplay mechanics discourage from exploring the "what if" alternatives.

    As Dusk Falls is a gripping tale of fate, chaos, and a storm of desire from several strong characters; everyone wants something, and not everyone is going to get what they want. Fortunately, you have the ability to steer the ship, but the thing about storms and ships is that sometimes the laws of nature have more sway. That’s how life goes — a reality which is expertly communicated in this solemn story.
