    Off-Peak deserved to be something less arbitrary than a point and click. Or it deserved a player with better taste than me. But given how much I’ve had to say in praise of both this and Frog Detective 2, the only two point and click games I’ve played in the last couple of years, I’m beginning to wonder if perhaps I just don’t dislike as many things as I thought I did. It’s always good to shed your prejudices, and Tales From Off-Peak City helped me unload a good few.

While it's true that it has some surrealism its structure is very defined so it's not going to feel a mess. Its disadvantages is that technically its relatively too simplistic and the atmosphere might be a bit more gloomy than most would prefer and the episode is relatively short.… Full Review »
