it is a great game where in the end the two families come back together the kids meet once more it is full of adventure and fun

While Broken Age clearly wasn’t everything that people hoped for after its historical Kickstarter campaign, it’s also not nearly as bad as some of the rebounded criticism made it out to be. Can Tim Schafer do better? Absolutely; he can and he did many times with other projects. Was it rushed and unfinished? Certainly; Act 2 barely has any new locations, while the story concludes so abruptly and with so many loose ends that it really feels like there should’ve been Act 3.

However, what’s present is still a solid adventure with a unique setting, beautiful art, loads of witty dialogues and engaging yet accessible puzzles (except for maybe a couple from Act 2, but they are nowhere near the sadistic level of some older genre classics). I’d also argue that it’s a better pick for an average player than many LucasArts games, since they rarely felt particularly conclusive too and were mostly focused on gags, while Broken Age manages to sneak in some reasonably thought-provoking social themes behind the barrage of funny conversations.

They say that the documentary was really the main star, while the game itself is just a side dish, but if you’re interested in adventure games, this is still a side dish worth biting into.

I enjoyed the narrative.
