About an hour of gameplay – The Journey Down: Chapter One Review

The graphics, programming, and gameplay controls are stellar and feel polished. For $5 there are many better options, though. The voice acting is far below par. I’d love to see these guys hire professional voice actors to enhance the gameplay. The main character and the low level criminals were well voiced. The rest of the characters sound as if they had friends record voices through cheap mics. The dialog was below par, too. Some parts were hard to listen to without cringing and never should have made production. The reason I won’t buy the other two is the length. It’s short. Really short. I had no issue starting and finishing it within an hour and a half, while getting stuck on a couple puzzles and exploring everything on every screen. I’d imagine the next two chapters are 40% more expensive and the same length.
