    FEATURES

    Vigil: Blood Bitterness plunges you into the dark and disturbing story of an ancient civilization where you must reveal the secrets of your past and exact revenge on the Evil destroying your universe. Ritualistic killings and blood lust blur the line between your own kind and the Evil you seek to annihilate. Your ultimate goal is to free yourself from this tormenting place and understand the origin and the purpose of this never ending Evil.

    Vigil is a stylized gothic horror adventure game that uses black and white imagery similar to Frank Miller’s Sin City™ to create a unique visual that draws you deeper into the gruesome world of your character, Dehon. Avoid deadly traps, solve puzzles to unravel your past, and even devour the faces of your slaves for sustenance towards your ultimate goal of freedom.

    Now that's a strange one! Vigil – Blood Bitterness is an unconventional point and click adventure game. The story is somewhat disturbing and delivered to the player either by reading notes scattered around the palace of via cut-scenes. Spoken dialog sounds like Latin but it could also be completely fictive so get ready to read subtitles a bit. Length wise it's pretty short, only 4 act and puzzle-wise, all are environment related (find a hidden passage-way, evade a trap, etc.) Graphics is where the game shines, well if you like stylized graphics render in a full palette of black and white ;p. One major gripe, there is no save feature during an act so if you die before completing it, well it's back to the start of the chapter. And did I mention that dying is pretty easy; mainly due to the shifting point of view that can make you send Dehon to his death more than once! Did I enjoy playing the game...I'd say yes and no! The setting is cool and the artsy graphic and character design are nice but the story is unclear and the no-save is pretty frustrating, moreover if it's the third time you retry the same level only to die again in the same lava pit because of the annoying view shift. Do I recommend it? Only to hard core adventure gamers that enjoy indie games.
