Let's just get this out of the way first, I love point-and-click adventure games. I play them on a weekly basis, yet this one managed to surprise me.
The Inner World is now one of my Top 10 point-and-click adventure games. It's got quirky characters, great art, and rich story. Rarely does a game make me laugh out loud, but this one was very tongue in cheek. It was lighthearted and funny despite the dark undertones present throughout the entire story. I love an unreliable narrator and this game has a charmingly naive hero, in a world he knows very little about.
As far as the game play goes... the more you click the more you know... I feel like there was unending witty dialogue for everything you clicked on. So, the more you want to know about the story, just keep clicking. They really put a lot of effort into the characters and managed to break most game cliches. It translates really well to tablet play and I really appreciate the voice-work. Some puzzles are a bit outside the box, but the developers added a useful hint section within the game to help you if you get stuck. Seriously, it's worth the price. Join the cult and play The Inner World.
