    the story isn`t bad but it`s
    There are several options and endings, so if you're a finalist, you can probably spend a few more hours

    There are some points in the story that just doesn't feel right, but if we look at the overall theme, it is a well-prepared game. Characters are lovely, you don't get a chance to form a deep connection with every one of them of course, but it still enough to feel sympathy for them.

    For those who like fmv , it's worth a try.

    The Complex is an interesting experiment that sometimes yields the fruits of its labor. More often, though, it reveals precisely why developers stopped using live-action video as a means to tell an interactive story. With a minuscule budget and equally small ambitions for its narrative and characters, The Complex just doesn’t replace the gaping whole that TellTale left behind. I don’t want to discourage Wales Interactive from continuing down this path, however. While it didn’t shine often, there were glimpses of a world in which this can work and work beautifully. I just hope they can secure the funding necessary to achieve their ambition.

    While waiting for the game, I didn’t realise how close to home it will hit. Lockdown here, lockdown there. I like immersion but this is too much. Fun experience though. [06/2020, p.72]

    The Complex is hardly a game, but rather a bunch of videos glued together with a shallow story. It would be unfair to compare it to true interactive movies like Telling Lies or Detroit: Being Human.
