  • Summary: Caligo is the darkness everyone descends into one way or another, and to each of us it's something different. For some it's a short but exciting adventure, some will see it as a place to relax. Yet others will be reminded of their worst nightmare, while for a few, it might come as a revelation.

    First, the good part: the artwork is amazing.

    The, the bad: everything else.

    - there is extreme stuttering, independently of the graphical settings
    - the voice acting is amateurish
    - the script is very banal, and hammered into the game

    and finally, this game is not a horror as presented - not even unsettling; it's a fantasy game.

    The very basic idea of the game's story has potential, and the visual and character designs were awesome. But every single one of its otherThe very basic idea of the game's story has potential, and the visual and character designs were awesome. But every single one of its other elements result into a very poor execution of that idea.

    The "game" is, basically, a walking simultator with only one choice to make at the very end; throughout the rest you do absolutely nothing but walk. Nothing at all. Now, you're supposed to reflect on the events of the life of the protagonist as he (you) is walked by them by a Creator but, even though I understood where the developer wanted to go with their philosophical conversations, I couldn't help but be bored by it all.

    The writing is cheesy, and that, mixed with the flat voice acting (particularly the Creator's voice, which sounded just plain absurd and comical, especially at times when it tried to be intimidating or harsh) made the whole thing hard to be taken seriously.

    I would only recommend this game if you'd like a "visual novel" about very basic philosophical questions about life where you don't have to read a lot, and where you would instead be pressing the walk forward button the entire time. And if, well, you've got nothing better to do.
