This is Gamer Guy (In a Suit) from the Echo Army YouTube channel! Today I am bringing you a review of the indie CYOA-style, simulation/survival game Dyscourse. Dyscourse is the current Daily Deal (as of yesterday, so you still have time to grab it cheap!) on Steam but was actually released back on March 25th, 2015 by Publisher/Developer Owlchemy Labs. (NOTE: This game was reviewed using a key from my own Steam library and it was NOT provided by the Publisher/Developer) Video Review: https://youtu.be/BFnCjVTB-3s The "Too Long, Didn't Watch" Review: GREAT Indie-TellTale-Style game. CYOA with some choices having to be made within a certain time limit. Consequences have an actual effect. Replayability a definite plus. 4/5. A bit pricey, but the sale price is a STEAL. The "Meat & Potatoes" Review: Dyscourse is essentially an indie TellTale game, really. It is a very pretty Choose Your Own Adventure with consequences that matter. Some of your choices must be made on the fly, adding to the intensity of your choices. The story here is actually really solid. It is clear that to get any of it at all, you will have to play through the game multiple times. Replayability is definitely a strong point, especially since the game itself is fairly short and only takes about an hour to play through once. Once is NEVER going to be enough though, until you've 100%'d this one. The ending is a nice touch, complete with newspaper clippings summing up some of your journey and an overall summary at the end of who (if anyone) you lost and to what. I highly recommend this to any fans of the CYOA genre and of the TellTale games style. There isn't really a whole lot of action, but the story is driven very much by your choices, which are difficult at times. Controlling the game is simple as can be. 4/5 and while it is a bit pricey for my tastes, if you can grab this on sale you really, really should. For the next 24 hours or so it's available on Steam for around $5 and is an absolute STEAL at that price. Happy Gaming!!! (Reposted with an attempt at adjusting the audio level)
