As a darker take on the point-and-click genre, Nobodies: After Death stands out from other adventure games as your goal is to leave the scene undisturbed, even the smallest things like making sure doors are locked to putting back the garbage bin where it came from. That’s a feature which I found to be a great touch.
Due to its focus on the adventure gameplay, Nobodies: After Death may disappoint you story-wise. However, the game is still a well-made title that will no doubt delight adventure enthusiasts.
