  • Summary: (Also known as "Fahrenheit") New York, January 2009. For no apparent reason, ordinary people are killing total strangers in public places. Although there is no link between the murderers, they all seem to respect exactly the same ritual and pattern. Lucas Kane becomes another of these murderers when he kills a stranger in the men's room of a restaurant. Haunted by strange visions, he must keep one step ahead of the police to find out what is happening to him. Inspector Carla Valenti and her teammate agent Tyler Miles are in charge of the investigation. A series of disturbing clues projects them into a world they had never even dreamed of. Meanwhile, the early onset of winter paralyses Manhattan in an unbearable fury of cold and snow. Each day the temperature drops, as a coat of brilliant white snow is drawn over the dark streets of New York. One thing is sure : The final countdown has already begun. Indigo Prophecy creates a new breed of interactive entertainment, merging cinema and interactivity. A spectacular real-time 3D adventure with state-of-the-art camera direction and multi-path scenario. Play different protagonists in this epic quest and make the story progress depending on YOUR decisions. Control different characters in an awe-inspiring paranormal thriller, discern the dark secrets behind mysterious serial killings, understand why the city is brought to a standstill by snow and dropping temperatures, Play the hunter and the fugitive : explore, interact, fight and confront by all means dark forces during your journey. After Indigo Prophecy, the world just can't be the same place again. [Quantic Dream] Expand

  1. A completely engrossing game, designed for the patience of adult players, that will stand up to an almost infinite number of sessions. It's a technically marvellous achievement by David Cage.
  2. No game is perfect, but Indigo Prophecy will be the standard bearer for a future generation of adventure games and would be a great candidate for a feature film. It deserves to be played, scrutinized and devoured by all gamers – action and adventure, casual and hardcore alike.

    Fahrenheit is a bold step in the right direction, and though not perfect, it has enough charm, polish and excitement to make it one of the most interesting titles of the year.

  1. "Indigo Prophecy" is a great movie-like game that encourages the players not to only screw around with the AI and do what they say, but the talk and communicate with them. YOU make the story; YOU are the player and YOU are the director. Every move of yours affect the game....I mean movie. Overall a must play epic game that, like "Mass Effect", counts your every move.

  2. It started out utterly amazingly...and then it slowly became a steaming pile of arse. The plot takes a left-turn down turd-street and picks up every cliché on the journey. Watching the opening movie, hearing him talk about the "real" controllers of the world in an Illuminate-esque way, i cringed and hoped the game wasn't going to take that route. I was wrong... Your decisions mean nothing until the very end of the game, where you'll be given one of three immensely similar endings. 50% of the game forces you into Quick Time (-events-) Sections, where an entire chapter is devoted to playing a Simon-says game without checkpoints (here's a tip, mash every single button, there's no penalty, and it's the only way you'll get through the game without sending a turd-package to the developers). The camera's a bag of arse. The story is a bag of arse. The ending is a gigantic bag of arse with more loose ends than a heavily used reusable cotton bag (of arse). Oh, and there're plenty of plot holes. PLENTY. The characters are likeable however, and the non-quick-time-button-mashing-sequences control well enough. The music's pretty good. In fact, that's about all that garnered the 6 - the characters. Expand

    This game is a horrible excuse for a dynamic game. It is not dynamic in any way shape or form. No matter what you do the exact same thing happens. This game had so much potential. Basically all it is, is a movie that you have to win a mini game in order to see the next part. Imagine if you were in a theater and they made you play mini games at various parts of the movie and kicked you out if you didn't win the mini game. There were only 3 endings and it is completely decided at the end which ending you get no matter what you've done the entire game. LAME... Expand
