The Berlin Apartment Reviews
I like The Berlin Apartment. Some chapters felt a bit long, mostly when I wasn’t sure what the game wanted to show me, but overall, it was a deeply pleasant experience. I think it will resonate most with players who love narrative-driven stories, history aficionados, and anyone who enjoys peeking into the quiet corners of human lives. If you can get all of that in a video game format, who’s complaining, right?
The Berlin Apartment is an interesting experiment in historical fiction told in a static setting. We hardly ever see outside the apartment and when we do it is difficult to watch. The moments outside the apartment are reminders of what was and what was taken from us. It is a glimpse of a war torn country trying to reshape itself into something new. It is also a look at humanity at its best and its worst. For fans of visual novels and shorter games, this is a great addition to a collection.
