    I tried, I really did ... the story concept fascinated, the graphics quality was good (despite the locked in square edge room/level design) but when it repeatedly morphed into a twitch reflex over-the-shoulder view third person shooter I hit the wall of frustration. I am not an action shooter fan so that is influencing my rating ... may well have not bought at full price anyway, butI tried, I really did ... the story concept fascinated, the graphics quality was good (despite the locked in square edge room/level design) but when it repeatedly morphed into a twitch reflex over-the-shoulder view third person shooter I hit the wall of frustration.

    Nice interactive game! Good job on the cast. But I believe it's position in on Netflix and not on game consoles.

    Ну такое 4/10
    Плюсы: хороший выбор актеров, красивые вещи. Минусы ниже:
    1)Скромный сюжет
    2)Малое кол-во разнообразных концовок (большинство повторяется)
    3)Вся "игра" (кино) проходит только в одной сцене.

    The Complex is an interactive sci-fi thriller movie from the publishers of Late Shift and The Bunker. After a major bio-weapon attack on London, two scientists find themselves in a locked-down laboratory with time, and air, running out. Your actions and your relationship with other characters will lead you to one of eight suspenseful endings

    Мне игра очень зашла,играл с удовольстивем по моему мнению актеры сыграли хорошо.Концовки прикольные но однообразные так что можно взять за 300 руб в стиме.

    I feel I completely wasted 3 hours of my life "playing" it. The plot is childish. No common sense whatsoever. The acting is so bad, especially the protagonist. The choices are not meaningful and nonsense. I laughed so badly at the end seeing it tries to copy the ending of LIS.

    Is The Complex worth it? It's really hard to say. It's not exactly an expensive buy at £9.99, and the addition of choices make it more engaging than a television episode or movie. At the end of the day, it's basically a £10 movie rental with some button prompts added in. The best way to play it would be with a group of friends watching together, so you can argue over the choices and go for the path that feels best for you. Otherwise, there are better games and better movies available for the same cost.

    A stripped-back, branching narrative with nice production values that is nowhere near as slick overall as the likes of Erica. You’d better be here for a B-movie. [Issue#175, p.71]

    If you’re okay with having minimal interaction, enjoy making tough decisions, and love an interesting narrative, The Complex is certainly an experience to add to your list. If, however, you enjoy a game that will keep you engaged for hours, a little more hands-on or are looking for something that offers up a meatier narrative, this may not be your cup of tea. At its current price point though, this single-player title is more than worth the money.
