Captivating and Immersive – Divided We Fall Review

The recent trend of Choice of Games (and their Hosted brand) publishing stinkers comes to a close! Enter Divided We Fall, a historical game based on the Spanish revolution in the 30s and the various sides of the war where anarchists and communists and fascists fight for power, freedom, and ideals. The narrative will take you through the lives of 4 main characters: a nurse, a pilot, a police officer, and a guerrilla fighter. Their lives will intersect on occasion and (since they are oftentimes on opposing sides) your choices might even cause them to kill each other. The game features actual photographs taken during the time period and the prose is sharp and sometimes heart wrenching. I can't wait to play the game again as only one character survived during my play through and her fate wasn't a happy one. I learned a lot about the time period through the included encyclopedia. No stats to increase in this game. Just hard choices. Love it!
