The art of the game is wonderful and that's what caught my attention. When playing it you notice that the animations are horrible but you don't give it importance because it's interesting and entertaining but the UI is a disaster. Unintuitive and the inventory is horribly messy to the point that makes it unplayable. With a lot of effort I was able to play 2 chapters and in the third everything was so disastrously unplayable that I had to leave it. Not recommended and sadly I regret having bought it.

Unforeseen Incidents is a beautifully crafted point-and-click adventure game that captures the spirit of classic narrative-driven mysteries while infusing it with modern sensibilities and stunning hand-painted visuals. Developed by Backwoods Entertainment, this title stands out in the adventure genre through its compelling storytelling, well-designed puzzles, and atmospheric world-building. From the moment you step into the shoes of Harper Pendrell, a down-on-her-luck handyman caught in a mysterious epidemic sweeping through a small town, the game offers a rich narrative experience filled with intrigue, emotional depth, and thoughtful character development. The story unfolds in a small, seemingly quiet town suddenly disrupted by a strange and deadly virus outbreak.

There's much to like about this game, but despite that there's something in each aspect of it executed poorly which puts a shade on overall experience. Art of surrounding landscapes and scenery is done wonderfully, but characters and their animations are rather poor and end up looking goofy, to the point of making an emotional ending seem rather silly. In my case each transition between levels took what felt like 10 seconds of pure pitch black screen, which becomes a nuisance once you have backtrack several times over. Each time you would use an item in your inventory it would lag for few second. Using item itself on surroundings felt like having to roll a huge ball of steel into a hole that was obstructed by ball itself. Story was nice and managed to make me invested, with each chapter having a nice pace until the last one. Last chapter felt like it was rushed and plot just crumbled to unsatisfying conclusion. Overall I enjoyed majority of the game, but wouldn't recommend buying ...
