Beholder creates an interesting world and fills this world with weighty, morally-grey choices that actually matter. The feeling of actually having an influence on how events transpire is present here, a nice change from games that promise choice and deliver nothing of the sort.

I’m not sure that I’ve ever played through a game before where my opinion changed so drastically or as often as it did while I was playing Beholder.

'Beholder' effectively captures a dystopian society from the perspective of the middleman. The game is a welcomed addition to any indie library, despite the few flaws it contains. I highly recommend this game for anyone who enjoys dystopian and task-based adventure games.

Beholder gives you scenarios in which you must choose what is truly right in contrast to what is lawful and is more than worthy of a playthrough. You will feel. You will think. You might just behold something worthwhile.

There were great levels of morality explored here and it's quite dark when the totalitarian government comes knocking.
