Among the Innocent: A Stricken Tale

I spent time with Among the Innocent expecting a straightforward indie title, and instead found something deliberately cryptic. This is a narrative game built on mystery, where the setup and themes matter far more than flashy mechanics. The game doesn't spell out what kind of story you're walking into, which means you either lean into the puzzle of discovery or bounce off the vagueness early. If you're the type who reads every text log and tries to piece together plot fragments, there's something here to uncover. The production is modest, and the game knows it. What Zero Degrees Games seems to be chasing is mood and implication rather than a big budget presentation. That works if the narrative payoff justifies the restraint, but this is exactly the kind of title where a review doesn't spoil anything because barely anyone has finished it yet. Come in curious and patient, not expecting answers.
