One of the more interesting aspects of the full-on return of the classic point-and-click adventure genre is that indie developers have really explored using it as a vehicle for using that base and telling interesting stories with it. That’s definitely the case with Distraint, as it uses dark and often trippy visuals to try to tell a different kind of story and convey the experience of a young man named Price as he navigates the twists and turns of the path in life he has chosen, along with his guilt and regrets. In terms of actual gameplay it can be disappointing as the puzzles as a whole tend to be very linear and even a bit clumsy, but if you’re down for the weird visuals and an unusual story it shouldn’t disappoint.
