Malfunction is a serious game. This action adventure game has atmosphere that can not be easily described.Hard, oppressive, intense atmosphere.Plot and storyline is amazing and i really hope that the game will have a sequel.It has to be noted that it is made entirely by one person.Sound effects are basic but the music is excellent.The greatest value of Malfunction lies within the depth of it's storyline and interesting ever changing gameplay that contains exploration, puzzle-solving and combat.Tarantino's way of presenting story is another plus. Includes Obstruction mode that consists of several mini-missions based mostly on combat. Achievments are interesting and obtainable. Game has serious support, personally i will always support this developer for his commitment to his product and customers.

This is a fun, chill, and interesting game from a dedicated solo developer. It has a story campaign as well as three action/arcade modes. The campaign is enjoyable and well fleshed out with a good mix of action, adventure, puzzle solving, and exploration. I did encounter a few game breaking bugs in my playthrough but the developer was very responsive and helped me out so I could finish without issue. Overall, it's not perfect but I I enjoyed time playing this and found it engaging. Malfunction took me back to the classics of the early MS-DOS era of PC gaming.
Original story, great graphics, awesome atmosphere! The game is rich with not only challenges but complex puzzles, fun battle system and great sound effects! It puts you in a world, the world that it wants to express to you..no other game I have played was able to achieve it. Such a great game for such a great price!! Don't miss out on such a great game!
[h2] I am 100% Biased [/h2] [h3] The TL;DR [/h3] It's not bad by any means. Charming, in it's own way :). Some knicks and bumps but they don't really get in the way imo. 10/10 [h3] "Deep" Dive [/h3] Personally, as i'm a little slow on the draw, I got lost. [strike]maybe needed some assistance.[/strike] But it didn't really take away from the overall experience. While the story is a little hard to grasp, I think the further you get [spoiler]for me, when the characters interacted for the first time it cleared up some haze. At this moment in time I have not finished the game so this isn't a full fledged review, if you will.[/spoiler] the more it makes sense. Having a love for the creator himself [i]may[/i] make me a little biased to the overall experience, but Malfunction has my support nonetheless. It's a "labor of love", and I think that shows. While some of the game play might be a bit [i]questionable,[/i] the potential is there. the "charm" comes from the moments that make you...
