    Interesting game. I felt the story was pretty good. Even though it had the somewhat usual story tropes through flashbacks/memories I felt like it was handled good. The concept for the game is extremely original and it is really cool. The combat on the other hand has some cool things they do with the guns and morphing abilities, but feels like an average FPS during it. The game reallyInteresting game.

The game really shines when you are not in combat and just trying to figure things out with a little bit of puzzle solving. Overall really good game especially only paying $30 for it is great with a roughly 6-8 HR long campaign too isn't bad at all.… Expand

    What is real? That's the game's tagline and it permeates throughout the game. Going through memories, exploring the past you never know what to expect. This is psychological thriller at its finest. The game has some slight horror themes and creepy atmosphere but it is not a horror game. It actually is a multitude of genres. Part adventure, puzzle solving, fps it does all these very well and tells an amazing story as well. In fact this game is heavily focused on story that some of the gameplay seems like an afterthought but that doesnt mean it isn't fun to play. The shooting mechanics are nothing new or exciting but some of the weapons like the corner gun are fun if a tad bit difficult to use at times. The graphics while not the best still look pretty good. It isn't a triple AAA game by any means but it looks decent and has some cool particle effects and visual effects at time. The sound design however is a huge plus. The sounds from footsteps to the sound of guns are all great and sound heavy. The music is also one of the best things about the game. It's a great soundtrack and just fit so well with the game. There is even a track that follows the characters loud breathing and one that follows wit a ticking clock. It's just so unique and sounds wonderful. The length of the game is good as well. It took me around 9 hours or so to reach the credits but I still don't know the full story as there is a ton of documents and items to find to fill in the blanks. A little plus I liked is once you find all the clues in a memory, you unlock a code which you can then enter the same memory and find an optional door that unlocks more back story and even new guns for your "mind palace" the mind palace is alittlw hub of information on the memories you've been to and your gun locker. It's a neat little place an reminds me of Sherlock. The best thing in this game though, aside from the Excellent soundtrack (seriously it's that good!) Is the story. It has so many moments where youll be confused, sad, angry and just what the hell is going on. O don't want to say to much about it because this game is super easy to spoil. Just know that it's worth experiencing. There are a few issues like dumb ai and muddy textures bit overall no real complaints Im so glad this game was worth the wait and you can see how much detail and complexity the story offers. It's a great little game and again it's not a AAA title. It's actually half the price of a full game at $29.99. it's well worth the money and time just to experience something different and unique. I highly recommend this one as it offers one of if not the best story in an fps, an amazing soundtrack and lengthy experience.

    interesting game, lacks some mechanics. Shooting is a bit weird. Story is interesting, voice acting is nice

    It's true, "never judge a book from its cover'. I doubted the game if it would be good, but after I have tried it, oh god, I liked everything in it despite the technical bugs it has in the gameplay. Less deciding and jump in it straight away, you won't regret it.

    im half-way there and was curious what others think, as i was mesmerised by this not-well-known game.
    im quite shocked that people call this graphics bad, it has a filter on it and textures arent in very high resolution (especially annoying on the phone), but its far from '2008 ps3 game'
    and plot is quite interesting and absorbing (so far) the game feels something in between    im half-way there and was curious what others think, as i was mesmerised by this not-well-known game.

    the game feels something in between 'vanishing of ethan carter' and 'call of ctulhu dark corners of the earth' with more of the first one.

    Get Even has a lot of ambition, but never quite realises it. While there are lots of individual beats to like – most notably the exceptional music and sound design - its multiple influences never quite congeal into anything solid.

    Like most movies of the thriller genre when you go and replay the game you will likely find things you missed and understand things a lot more but even if you play it only once it does a good job of explaining everything and has a very satisfying ending (regardless of which one you end up getting).

    It's a bit simple on the gameplay side of things, but Get Even still delivers an engaging story in an expert way, with often brilliant voice-acting and beautiful graphics. Don't let this one fly under your radar!
