    Deponia didn't go to waste when Daedalic entertainment ported the game to PlayStation 4. The game is funny, wonderful graphics and great characters. The only thing we miss is the use of the track pad.

    Thanks to an intriguing plot, a rich world and interesting characters, Deponia remains a beautiful adventure four years after its original release. The controls on consoles are good enough, but the same can't be said for the launch price tag, which makes this new version much more expensive than the whole trilogy on PC.

    An interesting point'n click adventure that hasn't been adapted perfectly to the controller.

    A fun and charming point and click adventure. ITs charming characters and great writing bring its characters to life. The puzzles can be challenging but fell rewarding when it's all said and done.It's just a shame my trip to Deponia didn’t last longer.

    Deponía has charisma both in its visuals and its characters, although it lacks some of it plot-wise. A traditional point-and-click adventure example for PS4 that you should play. It has to be mentioned the superb artistic work and controller adaptation. However, it could have brought some extras with it to compensate for its quite expensive price.

    Deponia jumps on PS4 without additions apart from a new control system, but it still is a great adventure.

    Deponia is alright, but, all the while I was playing the game, I had this nagging feeling that something wasn’t quite right.

    One of the best point and click game I ever played. It looks good, sounds well and most jokes are fun.

    Deponia looks great on the Switch and undoubtedly has a certain charm to it. However, as is often the case with these old school point and click adventures, too many of the puzzles lack any sort of logic and it all pretty quickly becomes an exercise in frustration.    … Expand

    I really enjoyed Harvey's New Eyes, so after finishing it, I bought Deponia immediatelly. What a disappointment. Very repetitive conversationsI really enjoyed Harvey's New Eyes, so after finishing it, I bought Deponia immediatelly. What a disappointment. Very repetitive conversations get boring real quick, soundtrack is quite bland (I can't even recall if it has any music, though I just played it a few hours before). And the worse is that it's buggy: the cursors often stuck at one item on the screen. When you want to try using multiple items on a different part of the screen, it keeps jumping back to a fix point. Gave up after about 4 hours of gameplay.… Expand
