Critic Reviews for The Franz Kafka Videogame
The Franz Kafka Videogame is a smart, beautiful and challenging game. However, its very short duration makes it feel like it has wasted a lot of potential.

The Franz Kafka Videogame is a unique adventure game experience, filled with unique art style and accessible puzzles. However, a baffling story that goes nowhere and a dreadfully short length make the game simply adequate rather than surreal.
I commend the developer for taking on such an odd corner of literature and creating a unique story inspired by a Bohemian author.
The Franz Kafka Videogame is an exquisite recipe that combines books, videogames and a great art direction, and the overall result is pretty unique. Unfortunately the puzzles, albeit well-thought, require not always clear and require a good knowledge of the author. The gameplay is best suited for a mobile experience, anyway.

The Franz Kafka Videogame is a surprising point and click which celebrates surrealism more than the author himself. Its delicious visuals and tricky puzzles will delight those who do not look for a real Kafka tribute. Unfortunately, its length and simplicity will forbid it to stay in memories for long.

Elegant and sophisticated, Franz Kafka: The videogame is a puzzle game dedicated to one of the greatest writers of all time. Made by only one developer, this game it's a passionate tribute to the literature of the 20th century.

A weird and pleasant puzzle game, which delivers a nice challenge. Too bad that game is rather short, and the difficulty level has some ups and downs.

The Franz Kafka Game is an interesting attempt at representing Kafka's narrative style in an interactive medium. It's not always going to be fun to play, but it's a memorable experience which relies upon witty writing and clever design rather than technology or rewards systems.
