Nov 13, 2013Today it is difficult to find a good mix between a shooter and an adventure game. If you like the idea, Deadfall Adventure is a game you should try.
-
Dec 3, 2013This entertaining old school shooter with several simple puzzles is pleasantly executed title to fill several autumn evenings. From time to time you'll encounter some technical issues, and you won't find the originality here. On the other hand, the game is fun, and it doesn't fool around trying to be anything else.
-
Nov 22, 2013A fun romp in a B-movie sort of way. I like to compare it to a poor-man’s Indiana Jones movie that you might see late at night on cable.
-
Nov 13, 2013Deadfall Adventures certainly has some problems but if you’re an Indiana Jones fan you really should be getting it.
-
Nov 13, 2013Despite a fair amount of issues (mainly technical), Deadfall Adventures turned out to be very pleasant. The campaign is varied and interesting and I enjoyed these few nights spent with James Lee Quatermain. Deadfall is a pretty good and playable game that would benefit strongly from a little more testing and rethinking of some things.
-
Nov 5, 2013Overall Deadfall Adventures is a mixed bag that does some things really well, some things so well, and a lot of things pretty average.
-
Nov 15, 2013It's got its fair share of flaws, some of which could be patched-up, but I found the sum of Deadfall Adventures' parts good enough, and more importantly fun enough, to keep playing. Anyone that enjoys FPS games and who aren't too spoiled by AAA quality titles is likely to find at least several fun hours with Deadfall.
-
Apr 28, 2014It has quite rough edges, but also some nostalgic charm. If only the developers had a bigger budget to sort out the technical flaws and improve the level design!
-
Games Master UKDec 25, 2013It manages to capture the spirit of the B-movie surprisingly well. [Jan 2014, p.85]

GameFrontDec 4, 2013Quotation forthcoming.
-
Nov 15, 2013A mixture of shooter and adventure, that isn't quite able to be something really special and heavily relies on a lot of gameplay- and story-elements we already know.
-
Nov 14, 2013Despite the delicious premises and the ambitions of the developers, the title published by Nordic Games has too many ups and downs to reach high quality standards.
-
Nov 14, 2013Deadfall Adventures is an appealing approach of merging a first-person-shooter with puzzle-elements plus a well-told B-Movie. Sadly, it tries to run with the hare and hunt with the hound, thus succeeds in neither task.
-
LEVEL (Czech Republic)Dec 28, 2013Pulp adventure filled to the brim with ‘B’ movie qualities. It’ll enrage you from time to time, but mostly, it’ll provide a standard dosage of fun. [Issue#237]
-
Nov 13, 2013Deadfall Adventures rises above its issues and somehow becomes an average bit of adventuring, and while that may not do it any favors during a crazy-busy holiday season, it’s still not a bad way to blow off a couple night’s gaming.
-
Nov 20, 2013Deadfall Adventures fails to get a passing grade mainly due to weak writing and very rough and badly made shooter sections. This new effort by polish team The Farm 51 is saved only by some nice puzzles and the curiosity to seek the treasures scattered throughout the levels.
-
Nov 13, 2013Deadfall Adventures is a game that doesn’t stand out. It has few redeeming qualities, and if you’re a FPS fanatic, there are much better games out there for you to play.
-
CD-ActionDec 13, 2013One of those heavily scripted games that make you go from point A to point B through corridors built of visible and invisible walls. Even taking a bath in a creek kills you, and there are two weapons available. [13/2013, p.70]
-
Nov 24, 2013The locations and themes in Deadfall Adventures are its stars, but neither the combat nor the puzzles really stand out and the pulp tone goes missing whenever most of the cast speak. A forgettable, Boy’s Own jaunt through well-thumbed pages of adventure fiction.
-
Nov 20, 2013This game is a cliche in every way possible. The animations are not so great, the story and the cast came directly from a B-movie, and the game lacks originality overall.
-
Feb 4, 2014All in all, Deadfall Adventures doesn't have a lot of positives.
-
PC GamerJan 31, 2014This clumsy, dated misadventure steals from all over and contributes no ideas of its own. Brilliantly bad dialog though. [March 2014, p.58]
-
PC PowerPlayMar 28, 2014An exhaustingly average game that still wouldn't be worth your time someone gave it to you. [Apr 2014, p.60]
-
Jan 15, 2014A tedious tomb raiding adventure starring an Indiana Jones parody.
-
Dec 5, 2013Its gameplay is tedious and lacks imagination. Its narrative experience is immature and poorly executed. When it comes to good adventure titles, gamers are spoilt for choice. Deadfall Adventures is just spoilt.
-
Nov 27, 2013It's an uninspired retread of good concepts, and an unfortunate visitor into a genre with some genuine giants. It might take you on a long trip across the globe to visit some attractive locations, but by the end the only temples I cared for were throbbing away in my head.
-
Nov 22, 2013Deadfall Adventures is an uninterrupted stream of clichés, awful cutscenes, mindless shooting and a decent puzzle here and there. Whoever was hoping for Uncharted on the PC is better off buying a PlayStation with Drake's adventures. It might be a bit more expensive, but much, much better.
-
Nov 20, 2013A great-looking game let down by poor storytelling, repetitive gameplay and cheap, frustrating puzzles and traps.
-
Nov 13, 2013The challenge and personality of old-school shooter or adventure classics is totally absent. It’s one of the most creatively bankrupt games I’ve played this year. And you should not play it.
-
Dec 18, 2013This has all been done before, and it’s been done better.
-
Nov 18, 2013Glitches, stereotypical characters, and dull combat betray any chance of Deadfall Adventures providing any real incentive for your troubles. Digging into this game yields not a rough-cut gem, but rather a lump of coal that should have stayed buried.
