Description

"A gamers pixel point-and-click dream" -The Daily Fandom "one of the most substantial point-and-click adventures we've played in a while" -Newsweek "nostalgic, emotional, and beautiful" -Noisy Pixel ----- Whispers of a Machine is a Sci-Fi Nordic Noir that tells the story of Vera, a cybernetically augmented special agent tasked with investigating a string of murders. These brutal killings obscure a sinister truth, as Vera soon finds ties to a group of fanatics committed to creating an AI superintelligence — a pursuit outlawed for nearly a century. Complicating things, a great loss from Vera's past comes back to haunt her, making her question her own sanity and everything she stands for. As an agent of the Central Bureau, Vera is equipped with an advanced nano-substance called Blue. This rare and sought-after technology allows her to develop superhuman abilities adapted to her psychological mindset. Choose your playstyle and utilize these augmentations to investigate, gather information, and solve puzzles with multiple solutions. Will Vera’s unique blend of skills and intuition be enough to solve the case, or will she discover that things are more ambiguous than they seemed? In this emotionally gripping story with existential twists and multiple endings, Vera's actions will have monumental consequences not only for herself, but for all of humanity... - INVESTIGATION, AUGMENTED: Will Vera approach situations with a more empathetic, analytical, or assertive style? Your choices will impact her augmentations and subsequent puzzle solutions. - A POST-AI FUTURISTIC DYSTOPIA: Immerse yourself in a realized world of beautifully hand-drawn pixel art design and gorgeous settings influenced by the Nordics. - POINT-AND-CLICK INNOVATION: A groundbreaking entry to the point-and-click adventure game genre by the experienced developers of Kathy Rain and The Samaritan Paradox. - PROFESSIONALLY VOICED: 4,000+ lines of dialogue with full English voice acting, directed by Wadjet Eye Games' Dave Gilbert. ** Images featured above have been taken on devices that support 16:9 resolution.

  • Seems to have a crashing bug

    Game is good but both the iPad and Mac version have a habit of crashing and loosing progress. I actual bought the iPad version because I thought it would be more stable I was wrong. But it was only a couple of bucks and the game is good from what I can tell so I’m not going to try to get a refund. My guess is if you can play this on windows that will most likely not result in as many crashes.
  • Keeps Crashing (iPad Mini 6th Gen)

    This game really is PHENOMENAL! Only reason for my 4 ⭐️ My iPad mini 6th Gen (2021 Model) is up to date with iPad OS 16.5 This game is constantly crashing, it’s a spontaneous bug - I can’t track it, so I can replicate it, but here is what I have identified: • Crashes as soon as I continue a saved game or start new game • Crashes if I play (a saved game or new game) within 10 minutes • Crashes if I play (a saved game or new game) within 2 minutes • Crashes if I play (a saved game or new game) an hour later or so • During first crime scene, after you scan the victim with smart mode, as soon as you tap the scan tool with the victim’s bio (the scan tool called Karl) the game will crash A very sporadic bug. I know it’s 2023 and this game was released awhile ago, but PLEASE FIX. This issue ruins what I would describe an immersive *experience* of being a future detective. APPLES -> VISION PRO: I actually want to play this game on my vision pro when it buy it, the Vision Pro has eye tracking (i use my eyes to make selections) and finger pinching gestures (my forefinger and thumb touch each other) and this is how we interact with apps - this game will be right at home. HERE ARE MY TROUBLESHOOTING ATTEMPTS: - Rebooted my iPad - Closed out the game, then relaunched game - Uninstalled game & Reinstalled the game - Powered down iPad and turned back on iPad
  • Fantastic game, horribly optimized

    This game is phenomenal. The story is well written and isn’t obvious. The abilities add a special uniqueness to give you multiple play throughs without being too repetitive. The graphics are clean. It plays excellent on an iPhone 12. My only complaint is that it’s not a well optimized port: the game runs fine but it eats into your battery life like crazy. It’s be great if that could be addressed (and I tried playing on the lowest graphic setting). If you like point and click adventure games, mysteries, and a hint of sci fi, then definitely give this a shot.

    I can’t get past the crime scene. It keeps telling me to go back and talk to the witness. Wasted $3.99.
  • Really great non woke point and click

    A really fun little point and click adventure with great replay ability. The writing was fantastic, it has a really interesting conservative vs progressive ideology narrative and you can choose your own adventure (THANK YOU writers for staying neutral and not forcing us to take the leftist path, very refreshing) Overall highly recommended for point and click fans, the puzzles were just hard enough and I throughly enjoyed playing.
  • Good from the get go, great till the end

    After playing, I noticed Dave Gilbert’s name in the credits. That would have clued me in that this was going to be a great game and done right. A true traditional mystery point and click. ...and that it was. The augmentations are genius. On top of that, the game plays based on what you do and say, so it plays different ways with different clues and objects for different people and thus different results. You could play again and choose differently. Did I mention the augmentations are genius? You’ll find out what that means. There’s even interactive action scenes with other characters. This game is a bargain and a must play for traditional point and click lovers.

    This was dope and fun. Kinda short for my taste but I loved it
  • Solid point and click, thought provoking

    By happyslappykat
    This game is a solid point and click with a good story. Some of the mechanics (when it’s time based) are irritating on mobile just because the ui is so small, it can be hard to click the right spot, so definitely died a few times in those scenes due that. Hah! But, the game was fun and had me thinking about deeper things for sure. The only other bummer is I pegged one of the antagonists from the second I met them; would have liked a bit more of a mystery, but the story is good and well written all the same, even if it was somewhat predictable.
  • Poor Execution

    By Tyrone McTrump
    Severely disappointing in contrast with other games of this type. No real challenge or cleverness in the design. Too much focus on gimmicky gadgets & skills. Very repetitive tasks and boring trial & error vs thinking & puzzle aspect. Trying to make a strictly linear game but with only one action to progress in a somewhat open world design like this is a result for disaster. Not even halfway through and already bored. Rarely do I get this bored with games or disappointed enough to write a review.
  • Great game

    Fun story, nice mystery, and no encountered bugs or ads. Creative play style and skills too.
