The game does quite a bit to strengthen the world and provide background and missing pieces on characters, places, events and even items which were used to solve puzzles in the other games. So far so good, but this has the potential to either work very well, or just come across as a desperate way to squeeze in an unplanned sequel, which I’ll get to in a later. The plot mostly centres around time travel and the changing of world lines which branch out from the previous story. In this sense, it’s hard to define the game as either a prequel or sequel, but I’ll refer to it as a sequel from now on since it shows clear intentions of changing the events which occur during and after Goodbye Deponia. Those who played the trilogy will know that simply continuing on from where it left off would require some very convoluted twists and turns, so taking this approach seems to have been the right way to go, if not the only feasible one. The story begins with a future vision of Deponia and then continues on with some events just prior to it. This will be spoiler-free for both Deponia Doomsday as well as the original trilogy, since some might still be intending on playing that.Ī good dose of nostalgia will please many.ĭeponia Doomsday takes place before, during and after the events of the original series. Needless to say, I have been trying to power through it to get as much information across on this article as possible. With absolutely no information out there given the short-notice release and press embargo, this review will rely solely on my impressions of the game, which I am about halfway through (give or take a bit, probably take since the game claims to be around 20 hours long) given that we got a key from Games Republic yesterday. Similarly, the ending drew a bit of criticism and left fans hungry for more, so despite being an unexpected surprise, a sequel also makes perfect sense. Those who played the original trilogy will know that it ended very definitively and was intended to be a trilogy with a clear beginning, middle and end. Out of nowhere, Daedalic decided to release a sequel to their most popular (and often divisive) point-and-click game series Deponia, announcing it just a week before release to the surprise of many.
