Indika is like Frankenstein's monster - cobbled together from many different parts that seem to be out of place. And yet it's worth you attention, especially if you value interesting gameplay and a very intriguing storyline.

Indika unquestionably defies definition. A swirl of impactful narrative and visual decisions are meant to resonate with the player longer than they linger on screen. It may be offbeat to a fault but this brief journey is uncompromising in vision.

Indika is a thoroughly compelling work that succeeds in throwing out the narrative adventure game rulebook and building on processes from all forms of art to create something wholly unique. It's a brisk, bold, frequently dark, sharply critical and deeply weird thing that deserves to be played by anyone with the stomach.

Indika was like a four-and-a-half hour long movie that heavily relies on the voice actors and its characters to tell a remarkable tale.

A great one day player for the busy gamer. A story that is captivating and enthralling with a unique ending.

An unapologetically cinematic descent into the darkest parts of the human mind, Indika is a unique and crunchy little experiment that comes alive in its ideas and tone if not always its gameplay.

INDIKA is a distinctive and stylish game that does not pull any punches. It asks very interesting questions, but the answer to them depends solely on you.

INDIKA is a walking simulator with a thought-provoking story about faith, personal beliefs and strong criticism toward orthodox Church and the Russian regime.

Indika is a creative, thoughtful narrative game with puzzle and platforming elements. However, it's not a title for the average gamer.

Indika is one of the most surreal games we've ever played. And while it's short, it's easy for us to recommended thanks to its dark and unpredictable story and thoughtful, engaging puzzles.

The nun's journey to self-discovery offers an interesting experience, but it is not for everyone. But the developers have done their job honestly. Walking simulator with puzzles has an immersive atmosphere thanks to the plot.

if I wanted to describe Indika with a single word, it would be disappointing. from story to characters and visuals, Indika is one of the most disappointing games in recent years.

Indika tells a unique story about the fear and horror of 19th century Russia ruled by radical religious, and does its best to push the boundaries of an indie game and reach new heights, although it comes up short here and there, it's still a one of a kind experience that shouldn't be missed.

With dull gameplay, conflicting art styles, stiff dialogue and a weak ending, Indika is a philosophy-infused discussion of religion that's unable to carry its burdens.

It is a short and impressive game that criticises Russian Orthodoxy and its effect on the individual in a very harsh language and draws attention with its visual language.

Imperfect and insufficiently interactive, but an original game with thick atmosphere and interesting topics.

Indika delves into the subjects like faith and explores them from a nun's point of view. the good news is that the game does this almost perfectly and even though there are some missed potentials in gameplay, the story telling and overall experience is definitely worth playing.

During my roughly 5 hours with Indika, I constantly wondered where Odd Meter was heading, given its sudden shifts in progression. Despite occasionally unclear situations, the overall result was very enjoyable, thanks to a story filled with contrasts and struggles. While the mix isn't always perfect due to some technical stumbles, it's a less predictable narrative adventure worth experiencing.

It's hard for me to rate Indika. Let me go further — despite my assessment of this game, I believe everyone interested should play it themselves (even if they have doubts) and form their own opinion about it. It's not an outstanding title, not even good as a game. Indika is just okay, but it offers a unique story that's worth spending a few hours of your life on. If you're still thinking if it's worth to play it, you'll resolve this dilemma only by giving Indika a chance.

Short in duration but solidly paced and with a unique style, Indika will leave those in search of an original tale in the panorama of narrative adventures satisfied. However, it fails to fully realise the ambitions of a work that could have given more in the way of entertainment.
