Retired detective Malcolm is awoken by the knocking of two mysterious whistle-blowers. They tell him about their lord who has been committing atrocities under the shroud of his glorious reputation. Intrigued, Malcolm decides to shake off the rust for one final case in order to pursue justice but finds that the truth is far more complex than it was made out to be.
This extremely long mode has been developed by its author for 6 years. The big care he gave to mod paid off, as he managed to create something truly unseen. The levels and gameplay are extremely sophisticated. The story is very simple in nature, however, it is interpreted quite broadly, which only accentuates the already great atmosphere. There may be some better modes than The Atonement, but that doesn't stop me from getting the top rating.
huge job --> 10
Beautifuly crated, 10/10 without a doubt.
Super great.
Thanks for making this.
It is a very new and different custom story, if it weren't for a few things such as texture clipping and monster ai(rarely bad and really bad with the drunk guy), I would've given it a 10 out of 10. But from what I heard only 1 person made the mod besides voice acting and whatnot. If you read this creator, you have some real talent. I've never seen such a good, long and unique custom story for several years(except Amnesia: Hunting Grounds Aftergame) which is one of my favorites along with The Great Work that came out years ago. You did an excellent job making this over the course of 6 years and I'm truly impressed. Would 10 out of 10 recommend.
Excellent custom story! The plentyful ecounters become quite repetitive and without interesting twists over some time, but they were more challenging due to rare (unintended?) hiding spots and I have rarely seen so many ecounters, so that makes the gameplay unique.
The maps looked really nice, although they were often too dark to actually enjoy (rooms were often completely black in the middle of them where there are no light sources, which looks weird). If there's some nicely looking rooms you should work on the lighting to actually make the work worth.
After the roof section the end felt quite rushed too.
The voice acting was a mixed bag. Some lines felt a bit too edgy and the old man-suitor was really annoying. No offense but I would've actually preferred this mod without the voice acting. Except the drunk guy that was a fun idea.
Apart from all that the custom story was really nice to play and especially the beginning and mid-game were outstanding.
Great
The time and dedication put into this Mod is unbelievable, and I can only recommend anyone to play it. This was one of the first Custom Stories I've ever played, so I may not know too much about Custom Stories and Mods, but wow this was enjoyable. Great voice acting. Great story. Great puzzles and areas. And overall, very well made, and it only deserves more attention. Please show the incredible creator, Exesus, some support for this outstanding and truly amazing Mod that they have created. 10/10
