    Historical and political games are not always exciting. This game is one of the good ones. The documents and real videos make the story clear. Game play is fine and graphic is tolerable. Eastern music is good and the dubbing is not bad .I recommend it. It worth 15$!

    This is an interesting game for an indie developer. The game play is good and sometimes it's challenging. The story is exciting. My favorite part was long and logical game play.If this game had a better graphic it could be a complete success for this indie team.

    when i start playing this game it was hopeless but by keep playing, it gets better and better.
    at the end i had an memorable experience. it has a good story and satisfying game-play but the graphic could be much better.

    Reality check: There is nothing right with Dark Years. Saying it's good out of Iranian pride makes you a liar. Saying it is good considering its modest origins makes you condescending. It's a mess. An ugly, buggy mess that has the right to be released but not to be sold. Many an amateur has done better than that.

    It's pretty hard for me to find a good thing to say about this game. Come    Reality check: There is nothing right with Dark Years. Saying it's good out of Iranian pride makes you a liar.

Many an amateur has done better than that.

    It's pretty hard for me to find a good thing to say about this game. Come to think of it, it's also pretty hard to chose its worst aspect:
    - It's definitely as ugly as a turkey's sphincter (what do you mean, you've never seen one ?) I mean, I can forgive cheap textures, but at least align them on your models, come on !
    - The story is incomprehensible.
    - The gameplay is mostly made of running through long empty streets.
    - Invisible walls, spinning camera, bad voice acting, no saves, wasd controls... ok, I choose one, otherwise I'm here for hours: the mini-teleportations of the main character when changing directions. I had never seen that one before.

    Let's face it, Dark Years is a turd. The only reason it doesn't get a 0 is because it is functioning, which is kind of a prowess, all things considered.    … Expand
