A first-person adventure game, in some ways similar to the concept of What Remains of Edith Finch. The Berlin Apartment tells the stories of the former tenants of the titular apartment. They are set in different eras and vary in terms of atmosphere and mechanics.
btf games is a German development studio operating under the umbrella of the company bildundtonfabrik (also known as btf). In the portfolio of this team, we can find the warmly received Truberbrook, an adventure action game titled Constance, as well as the lesser-known project Dino Dino. The Berlin Apartment described here is one of their works. It was created in the form of an adventure game that may evoke associations with the bestselling What Remains of Edith Finch.
In The Berlin Apartment, events are viewed from a first-person perspective (FPP). The gameplay takes place entirely in the titular apartment. The main characters of this production are a girl named Dilara and her father Malik, who is renovating a historic apartment in Berlin.
The primary element of the gameplay is exploring the apartment and searching for items left by its former tenants. Each of these items serves as a kind of "gateway" to their memories, in which we can directly participate. In this way, we not only see how the apartment has changed over the ages but also learn about the fates of its previous residents, accompanying them in greetings and farewells, as well as other moments full of joy, sadness, or horror. The individual stories are varied in terms of atmosphere and mechanics.
The graphic design of The Berlin Apartment is maintained in a comic book style.

Game Ratings for The Berlin Apartment Video Game.
Thumb Culture: 4 / 5
The Berlin Apartment tells its story beautifully through the eyes of many different narrators. There are plenty of opportunities to replay chapters if you’re going for for the platinum like I will be. For the slight bugs and graphics issues, I have to give the game the Thumb Culture Gold Award. Once these issues are fixed, I could easily bump this up to a platinum game.

The Berlin Apartment is an interesting experiment in historical fiction told in a static setting. We hardly ever see outside the apartment and when we do it is difficult to watch. The moments outside the apartment are reminders of what was and what was taken from us. It is a glimpse of a war torn country trying to reshape itself into something new. It is also a look at humanity at its best and its worst. For fans of visual novels and shorter games, this is a great addition to a collection.
