    Man hat viel versprochen aber nicht viel gehalten. Die Demo war ein richtiger positiver Trigger.
    Dann holt man sich die Vollversion und bekommt langweilige Rätsel vorgesetzt.

    A lot was promised but not kept very much. The demo was a real positive trigger.
    Then you get the full version and are presented with boring puzzles.
    The worst part is the controls. You struggle with the keyboard and have no controller support.
    Investigations are fun, but they get boring quickly.    … Expand

    Lacuna is a wonderful indie detective game in which you have to solve the murder of a politician. The graphics are really nice, as are the atmosphere and the sound. There’s a lot of great twists and turns regarding the story, resulting in several different outcomes, depending on the player’s choices. Overall a clear recommendation.

    Lacuna is a wonderfully tense hard-boiled story set in a gorgeous jazzpunk future. Its mysteries will make you work for the answers, and will even let you fail, but either way the payoff is a sense of accomplishment that few other narrative puzzlers provide.

    There are some reviews that are hard to write because the game is just fine, and then there are some that just pour out of you because you can’t help but think of all the things it does well. Lacuna is well and truly the latter, with every small piece pulling together to create a really great detective game ripe for the picking.
