    I took a risk in buying this game but i am so glad i did. For and IOS port it's still gorgeous by PC standards with smooth, tense gameplay with solid animations and lip syncing. The storytelling and writing is the best i have seen from a game this year.

This is helped by the amazing voice acting from Jennifer Hale (Mass Effect), David Hayter (Metal Gear) and a first time video game performance from Rena Strober who does an excellent job as Hope the main character. I can not wait for the next 2 episodes and i would definitely recommend this to someone who enjoys an engaging story in a very atmospheric world.… Expand

    All I can say, is that this game is awesome so far. I have been playing for about 2 1/2 hrs and am diggin' every minute to it. The story is compelling and I am anxious to see how this is all going to turn out. Not to mention, fun and stealthy! Just the way I like it. Very happy with this game! :)

    For an IOS game, this adventure game has proven to be among the best. With an interesting story and game play style I am thoroughly entertained and satisfied with my purchase and recommend it to all fans of adventure and off-the-wall games.

    The quality of the world created is on par with the Bioshock games (which I loved). I care about Hope and the characters of this game. The stealth element is suitable for this world and adds tension. The voice acting couldn't be better. This game suspends my disbelief, which is the best thing you can say about a piece of entertainment. Can't wait for the final two chapters to see whatThe quality of the world created is on par with the Bioshock games (which I loved). I care about Hope and the characters of this game.

    I first came across Republique when it was a one-button game on iPad. Now, after revisiting its “1984” inspired world in a remastered edition, I can assure you that the game also works great on PC. [06/2015, p.70]

    Republique Remastered is an effective, modern point-and-click adventure, and one of the few good mobile-to-PC upconverts. The controls and gameplay take some time to get used to. But it's well worth it to explore the lovingly realized world of conspiracy and paranoia.

    The game delivers an original stealth experience with a good narrative, despite some backtracking. If you are looking for a second person adventure, it may be worth a try.
