[h1] Utterly Pointless[/h1] [i]Gothic 1881[/i] is a very short (less than 2 hours) RPGMaker game that really fails to deliver anything meaningful. For less than $2, I did not expect much, but I have played games that are less than an hour long that have left more of an impact to me than this game does. The ideas are definitely there to be elaborated on, but the overall execution of the ideas is really lackluster and bland. If I had to be perfectly honest, this feels like someone's college project.

About This Game
You are a young doctor sent by the Imperial Office of Disease to investigate the origin of this mysterious disease.
Did Count Mergul, who resides high above the village, have anything to do with it, or his disreputable sister, who has retreated into the dark woods?
The villagers rumour that the Count is conducting sidelong experiments, that through his family a dark shadow has lain over the village for generations.
But can that be, in such enlightened times like these? One thing is certain: nothing is as it seems - and you have come to this godforsaken village to reveal the riddle. Meanwhile the people around you are getting sick and dying.
Gothic 1881 - a short narrative adventure in which you learn the secrets of a village, the hidden desires of its inhabitants. And in which you lift the thin veil of reality.
