  The best adventure since Blade Runner for me. You do not use your mouse to check every pixel for that one thing you miss. Instead you have to decide how to talk to people, what to mention, what to hide, how to proceed. You don't have to find *the* right solution. You find *your* solution. I got hooked by this one.

  Get the uncut version on Adventure Gamers instead. Steam should tell people before they buy if their games are censored.

  PUBLIC NOTICE (Uncut patch): I made an uncut patch for Steam (the original uncut version is no longer available for sale) which adds full subtitles, decensors the game and has bonuses, here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=697262043 My playtime is low even though I finished the game because I played using the uncut version executable. Now the review: Culpa Innata is a fantastic and quite unique adventure game, it does a lot of things most games don't and really deserves your time and money. Many adventure games are set in criminal investigations but none succeed in actually making you feel like an official investigator going through actual interviews non-sequentially and piecing together the evidence like Culpa Innata. You have a limited amount of time - in the game that translates to the number of people you can interview based on travel time to location - and must choose wisely whom to interview, what to ask and which leads to follow up (and report) in the game's many locations. You also have a well developed private life after the day's investigations in which some other plot threads are explored. The game is non-linear and major reveals therefore happen in a way that is specific to how you chose to advance. Another great success is the game world in which characters' scripts, motivations and way of life feel very lived-in and set in the new world order established by a subtly totalitarian regime very different from the one we live in. The main character herself sometimes says questionable things as she is an active part of the system up to a point. This does make you as the player explore this world on a deeper level than if you were controlling a detached completely-different-from-everyone protagonist meant to make you empathise with a corrupt society that cannot be accepted. The story is very interesting and while the game suitably ends the main plot there are some secret threads set up for a sequel that hopefully sees the light of day sometime. For its age, the visuals are great and the facial animation is solid. Faces having an almost photorealistic feel at times due to the way it uses film grain without being excessive. The soundtrack is nice too, fits the mood well. The voice acting is also very good. I did not encounter any game-breaking bugs or crashes when playing the game (Note: I was using the uncut version patch shared on top of this review). All in all, a fantastic adventure game I'm glad I played and highly recommend it to you all!

  Seems like it might be a good game. Looks good and seems interesting. Unfrotunately it is useless and unplayable for me. It says it has Captions, There is a captions option. But the major game breaking problem is the captions are only in the cut scenes. Given the point and click style of gameplay and no in game captions makes this very difficult. Click somethign and the character tells you about it. Probelm is, I am a Deaf/HOH gamer..... So, like i said, rather than simply havign in-game captions, this game speaks to tell you what you need to know... Which is completely usless for me. What a shame, looks like it could be a great game if it was playable..

  "The best adventure since Blade Runner for me." Gotta agree with this guy. This game is amazing. Great story (based on a book, if I recall correctly), nice characters, interesting puzzles, multiple endings (based on our choices). World Union (where the game takes place) reminds me a lot of Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. As for the graphics, for a game that old I don't even think they're bad. Just a warning: see those black bars on the screenshots? Game doesn't run in widescreen. But the story is so amazing that, believe me, you won't even remember that after playing it for 30 minutes If you're a fan of adventure games and a good, solid sci-fi story, give this game a chance. I don't think you'll regret it For those wondering about those merely 4.4 hour of gameplay on my profile, Steam version is cut (it lacks a few sex scenes, like Fahrenheit), so I grabbed the full version elsewhere, and that's the one I've been playing

  This is really a very unique adventure game, I play adventure games since the 80's and i am very amazed with this one. The game is full of realistic dialogs and interesting characters. I am guessing over 15 hours of dialogs are in the game. Only downside is, the graphics are a bit low quality and pathing is confusing. I wish a sequel is made. I strongly advice this game to adventure gamers.

  Almighty god of the mcgyvers, what a promising story and what a wasted opportunity. Culpa Innata has a really nice world building that is mixed with a nicely typical noir convoluted story, where all the threads point to different directions in vertiginous speed. It is very ambiguous with the characters (mostly are very mean, above them all a very nasty best friend that cannot stop humilliating and harassing our main character) and it drops pieces of information about the game world in a very subtle nearly Gene Wolfe manner, but unfortunately the conclussion is abrupt leaving most of it in the air, basically asking you to wait for a second part that was obviously never going to come. Because technically is a spectacular disaster. It looks like a 1998 game though it was released in 2008, the camera is annoying as if nothing was learnt since Alone in the Dark (1992), faces are weird and the voice acting is generally terrible. Music is nice, and the writing is usually polished, but mix that with a very uneven quality in the puzzles (the best of them being the "work is fun" kind of puzzles that you can see in Spycraft) and really, after so many hours of very long conversations and repetitive information I can only say that I feel like I wasted my time. A closure would forgive all these inconveniences, but it seems that we don't deserve any closure. Not recommended. There are hundreds of better point n click adventure games out there.

  This is a pretty good futuristic adventure game. While I did play it with a general walkthrough you could definitely finish it without one. The thing I liked most about it is that unlike the old-school adventure games (King's Quest, Space Quest, etc.) you can't really bork your game by not picking something up that you will need 5 hours later. Definitely one that I would recommend to adventure fans, and depending on your patience, a pretty good one for others as well.

  Despite the so-so graphics, it's one of the most interesting adventure game offerings of the past decade. Also, Culpa Innata manages to weave an authentic sci-fi story (and world) - no fluff.

  One of my All-Time favorite adventure/puzzle type games. You play as World-Union Peace Officer Phoenix Wallis. It's a classic point-click adventure with plenty of puzzles to solve, but it does not stop there: The game also offers fantastic details and graphic animation for all it's many characters throughout the game. There is a lot of dialog between everyone and they all have stories to share about life in the world union as well as facts relating to your murder mystery. Some point-click adventurs are little more than just a set of puzzles, with very little actual interaction with characters and the world: This game is different! Not only will it test you with puzzles: but you'll get to have quite a large number of conversations with everyone you meet. Over all this is a VERY good game and well worth the price.
