Emerald City Confidential, a point and click adventure that had the ability to connect itself with a quite known book, “The Wizard of Oz”, that meant that it had to reflect a magical aspect and in the sort of a way it did, but not entirely.
In general, the game is interesting and because it is a point-and-click adventure. It means that you must be able to interact with many parts of the environment, generally being small objects and people the main stuff that we interact with. It has many characteristics
Main Character and Title
The title screen introduces us with Petra, the protagonist of the story, a girl that must be prepared for what’s coming next and if you’re a little bit careful with the details you’ll be able to spot many things that would amaze you.
It is called Emerald City for a reason, it tries to blend itself with many green variants as well as colors that combine with it, mainly being Purple/Blue, Yellow, Red, White, and Gray.
Details Make the Difference
In every house that we can visit with Petra, we can realize that there are details everywhere, from the wood details that are found in the ceiling to the paintings that are found on the walls ending on the little details on the floor.
Any place where your eyes can rest there will be something, but there is one thing apart from Petra that will be accompanying you for the whole journey and it is the HUD, that will be filled with items as long that you finish the Quests.
Character Design
The Characters are commonly dressed in formal clothes while others are just simple and in the intent of having an extravagant clothing end up with a weird disaster on them.
The City
As mainly said, most of the city tends to be decorated around green colors and the ones that combine with them, at large scale it can be appreciated as a Metropolis but that isn’t the case everywhere you go.
Looking apart from the main attractions from the city we can go as well to places that resemble more the style of a town with less formal people and humble houses.
The Main Attraction
This game’s main attraction isn’t its music or even its graphics, actually, it is the incredible story that they achieved to create while developing this title, for a point and click adventure it isn’t one for puzzle lovers, to be honest.
This appraised story that I’m naming alongside the representation, the voice acting and all the little details have given this game high qualifications between the players that love the adventure genre.
One indie game can leave such a unique mark in the players that enjoy it, and this isn’t new, this game is one of those where you can fall in love with anything that comes in contact with you during your gameplay.
Some say that the game is ruined because of its simple puzzles, with all that I could appreciate from this game the only thing that I can say is that You should be more open-minded and should stop looking at a weak spot when there are thousands of strong ones.
