Review | Pentiment

No thats not right. We learn at the end of the game who wrote the notes and who pulled the threads. But even the thread puller doesn’t know who really did the murders. We all will never now. Its a secret of a game in a dark time and beautifully done.

I accused the Prior in Act 1 and Guy in Act 2. I have no remorse, both these assholes deserved their brutal death.

After the credits is a scene with a family tree. And there Ursula and Vasclav burned at the stake in my ending. And that was my fault, i encouraged them to speak openly. As we all learned, this was not a free speech period in German history.

Pentiment is Screen Rant’s game of the year, over Elden Ring and God of War Ragnarok.

I feel bad, it was originally in my top 10, then I realized I had 11 and it just barely missed the cut. I adore the game, the story is and its themes are so brilliant.
