First impression of Kentucky Route Zero is like slapping. A series of difficult dialogues with simple game mechanics, random sequences and strange art style are mixed and confused in the first act that asks you to think that what is coming here is the right text of the chapters Or it may be the wrong conclusion from our prejudices.

We started the game without following this brand seven years from the beginning. Though marked by its powerful point and click, we will not fit into this kind of thing. It is clear that the style is there and shares some of the basics, but Computer Cardboard eventually becomes a fun and interactive one despite an extremely bad base.

Conway is the distributor of this story. A man has entered maturity who is working on distribution of antibiotics. He had a final order on his truck and was willing to deliver it even though he had learned that the company had just been suspended for payment and it didn't matter. First Objective: find the number five Dogwood Drive, an address that nobody seems to have ever heard. Although someone believes that the Zero Route is the way to go.

What separates Kentucky Route Zero from its contemporaries is the decisions that must be taken along the way. From the beginning, there is freedom to choose and build experience. Conway goes with an old canine friend who no longer works for his good times, but keeps his beauty thanks to his grass hat. To get started, you have to build the last one, one of the many things you have to decide when you start playing. What happens is that no election will have a huge impact on what will happen next. Expect a packed tour, where you do not touch what is going on but give directions.

Another sequence that sets the tone for an impending adventure is, at the same time, its greatest shortcomings. Because they present it to you in a way that looks like you're going to be responsible for the next one, even though it's all very tied up. It also has no real puzzles, so if you think of something as beautiful as Monkey Island, this article is no different. For all these reasons, you told us enough to include you in the game. And being very dark inside and dark on the outside, with those yellow and inactive colors.

But all of this was changing, gradually, as the steps progressed, the character was explained and others would come along to accompany him on the journey.

Kentucky Route Zero alternates between surrealism and mysticism. For example, in an office building we find a plant where there were only bears. It was also shocking to see the eagle so big that it was able to take over the buildings. It is full of metaphors and metaphors, but they are the real critical aspects of the research that has penetrated the interior. Every character tells a story and holds sin. It is one of the most difficult problems and completely conditional on this entire small country.

We have encountered many times when, without realizing it, we stopped to think about the circumstances and problems of these people, thanking us so often for the script that gets the points of the chapters. But none of this makes you lose sight of those experimental touches that make it unique and real. Moving forward may be straightforward, but making decisions in such complex situations provides the potential for greater engagement. Few games are able to explain what relationships and philosophy of life mean in this personal way. Conway and Shannon are a work of art.

Although it introduces the best narrative work, it is not a complete game. The first hours, that work of years past, do not look as appealing as everyone else and can create initial rejection. Chapters cause progress to be slow, but many criticisms have longer discussions than are necessary. In addition, it lists so many things that there is a short time for people and places to be filled, without giving you a hand to follow it properly. Among other problems and others, you have to be prepared to deal with times when it comes up to keep playing.

We started out in doubt and were finally impressed with this long-awaited Kentucky Road Zero finish for its creators. The casual game is, however, introduced without hesitation to say what it means by using some good texts. In the end, we also got the sense and taste of that fierce and heart-wrenching attitude. It is true that there are things that can be better, give more of themselves, but this work is a unique thank you and never stops improving until you reach the end.
