Lacuna: A Sci-Fi Noir Adventure
Release Date: May 20, 2021
Lacuna - A Sci-Fi Noir Adventure is a futuristic noir adventure game in which we investigate a murder. The game departs from the schemes of classic adventure games, leading us through a non-linear story without unintuitive puzzles and repetitive dialogues.
Lacuna - A Sci-Fi Noir Adventure is a 2D science fiction and noir adventure game. This is another indie game released by Assemble Entertainment, and it was developed by the German studio DigiTales Interactive.
As the title suggests, Lacuna - A Sci-Fi Noir Adventure takes us into the distant future, to a huge metropolis where a high-profile murder occurs. The case is investigated by Neil Conrad, an agent of the CDI organisation. What he doesn't realise is that this investigation will turn his life, and the entire solar system, upside down.
The debut game from DigiTales is inspired by classic point-and-click adventure games, but it introduces many changes compared to the typical representatives of the genre. Lacuna - A Sci-Fi Noir Adventure abandons inventory management, fanciful puzzles, repetitive dialogues and point-and-click mechanics in favour of control system taken from 2D platformers and action games, as well as conversations and puzzles closely related to the game's plot. The authors also focus heavily on the protagonist's choices. In the course of the game Neil Conrad must constantly make difficult decisions, for example choosing between the right of state and the safety of his loved ones. Each action has its consequences, which ultimately lead to one of many endings.
Lacuna - A Sci-Fi Noir Adventure uses the popular pixel art style, inspired by classic adventure titles from the 90s.

GameGrin: 8 / 10 by Alana Dunitz
Lacuna is a beautiful looking futuristic noir detective story with a great soundtrack that really makes you realise how much your decisions matter. Be prepared to do a lot of reading and research in-game so you make informed choices, because if you don't a bad ending is waiting for you!
Jump Dash Roll: 9 / 10 by Rob Kershaw
Lacuna is a slick noir adventure debut handled remarkably well by a tiny indie team.
Softpedia: 8.5 / 10 by Cosmin Vasile
Lacuna is not very long, but it has really high replay value and it checks the correct boxes of an adventure game. But what makes Lacuna really memorable are the atmosphere and the fact that it focuses on consequences rather than morality.
