It's not something I'm particularly well-versed in and such discussions can result in a lot of **** from multiple parties. In my experience, a lot of political agendas in games come off as heavily contrived and are often met player backlash as a result. With Black The Fall, however, I sort of have to get into the politics of the game since it plays a big part in it's striking theme.The game is an indie, puzzle platformer game that's set during the oppressive Communist regime in Romania. Further research turned up that the face of Romania's communist dictator Nicolae Ceausescu is displayed on giant TV's throughout the game and you can even find a subtle outline of the country in the main menu, just off to the bottom right of the bike. The game supposedly draws a lot of references to Romania's dark past and provides an interesting "what if" scenario regarding the Communist regime not being overthrown in 1989: the end of Nicolae Ceausescu's term as Communist leader.The core gameplay loop revolves around using stealth and puzzle solving solutions to navigate through factory floors, secret passage ways, an abandoned wasteland, a prison complex and ultimately escape. Throughout the game, you'll experience just how far an oppressive regime will to squash any dissenters and maintain order as NPCs are forced fed propaganda and are worked to the point of exhaustion and sickness.I felt that the games graphics were well done. The dark, imposing atmosphere that covers every colour on the grey spectrum do a great job of creating this drab and dreary environment that you want to escape from and never look back. The game also leverages the colour red to indicate security measures, which presents a threat to the player. Funny enough that the colour red has also been associated with Communism (the infamous "Hammer & Sickle").The game's runtime on a single play through is about 3 hours with very little replay value. Despite the shorter run time, the game still tells a pretty compelling story about refusing to no longer be a cog in an oppressive regime and plotting an escape. The game has a pretty demoralizing ending, considering everything the player has to go through to get to the end.

But the background atmosphere is supposed to inject you with feelings of oppression by Communist regime. There are in between parts which show you the world. They are called chapters and you get a checkpoint after each puzzle solved.Game play?Good. 4/5 ☑It is rather relaxing puzzler where you solve puzzles and use reflexes to jump around or time your escape under the lights of enemies. You continuously get to understand your controls and how to get past guards. Some puzzles are repeating themselves with slight variations inside the environment. Mostly, you need to be attentive to the signs giving you clues.Re playability?Acceptable. 2/5 ☑I have got 36% achievements in 1st walk through, though it seemed very linear to me, surprised that I did not unlock 100%. There were machine buttons that did not move a thing when pressed. There are probably some collectibles or hidden rooms I am not aware of.Graphics?Good. 4/5 ☑Art style is great, light effects too, there is some music here and there, but most sounds are coming from the machines around you. It is 2.5D side-scroller and you will turn to the sides when moving around.Hardware requirements?Low range. ☑ It ran smooth on my GTX 1060 and i7- 8700 with above 150 FPS.How difficult?Normal. ☑You should get through by trial and error, watch the reactions of guards and environment changes. Lights and sounds also play their roles to trick player. There are only few controls, walk, crouch, jump, fall, use, aim and command. Exhaust them all, look around your chapter, your options are limited.How long?less than 2 hours. ☑ The fastest you can get through is little over 1 hour.2-9 hours. ☑ I finished it in 3 hours.I am giving Black the Fall 7/10. It is short and linear puzzler, not very frustrating if at all, atmosphere is kind of a background story.

With a very symbolic story, Black tells a dark, cold, hard story of an escape from communism in a brilliant, wordless narrative way.Graphically stylized with a very particular style, the game demonstrates well the artistic treatment, acclaimed by the critics. The soundtrack is intense and immersive.Mechanically the game is very simple, but with challenging and elaborate jigsaw puzzles.I think for this game using a controller will be a huge plus, but I did not have any issues playing it with a keyboard.Black is a very nice "outside of the box" game, that I honestly enjoy every moment.

Black The Fall bought me with its brilliant atmosphere of hopelessness that even Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four would not be ashamed of.

An attempt to escape from the Communist prison in Black the Fall has a plenty of strong moments and great environment design. It´s a pity, there is only a short campaign and many technical issues.

However, it can't reach the greatness of that Danish masterpiece due to lack of polish... E.g. the animations of the main character have no proper transitions and feel clunky. There is no death animation. Though the art is good, and the scenery is well designed. 8/10

At $14.99 USD/$19.99 CAD, Black the Fall is a tough recommendation. On the one hand, it’s a decent video game with something interesting to say. On the other hand, it’s hard to see the value in such a price tag, as this is merely a two to three hour experience, and one that doesn’t have any replay value.

Great logical platformer strength is mainly on delightfully drawn distressful atmosphere and fine visuals. While gameplay is not completely spotless, a number of interestingly designed puzzles makes the game a pleasant thing for anyone who likes to think.

I love games that are clever, beautifully designed, tell an amazing story and make you feel for something or someone. Black the Fall ticks all my boxes.

Sure, it could’ve done so with a bit more subtlety – it's a bit heavy-handed at the very end – but at least Black does have a point to make. It’s just a shame that it wrapped that in a game that’s so shamelessly and distractingly derivative.

A communist aesthetics in an pure Orwellian atmosphere. 70 years have passed since 1984 but we can't get over it. Black the Fall means the return of the most classical dystopies applied this time in a videogame environment. An interesting tittle for all of those who loved Half Life, and, yes, of course, Inside.

Black the Fall is a clever and ingenious adventure puzzle game with a dark and oppressive atmosphere, but we miss a better and more original puzzle design.

Taking on some heavy subject matter, Black The Fall has moments that will live in the memory once it's all over. And while Sand Sailor's game might be on the brief side and occasionally frustrating, it's also perfectly fine. But that's about the long and short of it.

A captivating side-scrolling adventure, with great visuals and a varied gameplay supporting the intriguing narrative in a communist dystopy. Some controls could have been better refined, but it's not a big deal and the game is definitely suggested.

Brilliant bleak atmosphere and sharp graphics. I love the concept of fighting against Communism and the puzzles are rather challenging, I mustBrilliant bleak atmosphere and sharp graphics. I love the concept of fighting against Communism and the puzzles are rather challenging, I must admit, especially the one that you have to rely on sound only.

当玩到苏联国歌响起的时候还是惊了一下。这款游戏和INSIDE有非常多的相似之处，INSIDE的隐喻在BTF里面变成了明喻罢了。故事背景设定在敏感的89年，好在虚构的是苏联的故事。作为一名苏俄（鹅）是怎样逃出生天的。解密成分很多，而且谜题的类型较INSIDE丰富不少，难度也有所增加。当玩到苏联国歌响起的时候还是惊了一下。这款游戏和INSIDE有非常多的相似之处，INSIDE的隐喻在BTF里面变成了明喻罢了。故事背景设定在敏感的89年，好在虚构的是苏联的故事。作为一名苏俄（鹅）是怎样逃出生天的。解密成分很多，而且谜题的类型较INSIDE丰富不少，难度也有所增加。画面的代入感还是不错的，至少对得起游戏的售价。值得推荐的一款作品，部分场景的设计也是脑洞大开（人肉发电机比比皆是）。

Black The Fall is a rarity, something unexpected for its ability of mixing a setting inspired by the true history of Romania before the fall of the communist regime and the mechanics of a traditional puzzle-platform. The result is crippled by some flaws, but Sand Sailor Studio has created a nice alternative to the Limbo/Inside subgenre.

It is sometimes even able to shine with its own light, succeeding in refreshing the sensations generated by a genre that in recent years has known too many emulsions and a few really original works.
