Adios (2021 video game)

Much of the appeal of the visual novel comes from how a lack of agency and coordination are made up for in other regards, whether it comes from immersing the player in the headspace of its characters or showing off breathtaking artistry in some fashion. In that regard, “Adios” can only be regarded as a failure, a middling radio play seemingly attached to a modded copy of “Borderlands” to create the most boring, interactive machinima of all time. “Façade”, of all things, has better characterization and more expressive characters, and Dubya was President when that came out. A stupid mess.
