Unavowed Reviews
An atmospheric, well-designed adventure elevated by borrowing elements from role-playing games.
With an exceptional mystery, genuine characters and brilliant writing, Unavowed is a phenomenal adventure.
Unavowed is another adventurous little gem by Wadjet Eye Games, although with even more than usual in terms of gameplay and storytelling.

Unavowed is easily one of the best adventure games ever made. The story and characters are fantastic, the visuals immaculate, and the puzzles unique and inventive. Wadjeteye games are always good, but they've set the bar pretty high with this adventure.
When you boil it down, Unavowed takes the tried and true formula of the Point-and-Click game and uses it as a stage to talk about humanity.
Unavowed expertly blends fantasy and crime genres with stellar writing, acting, and artwork to create a game that is both memorable and entertaining, and should be experienced by anyone who thinks the glory days of Sierra On-Line are the only time period where great point-and-click games can be found.
The game's more successful cases ask you to evaluate your definitions of things like mercy and humanity.
One of the most engaging and original adventure games released in years. You owe it to yourself to give it a play.
As far as presentation, Unavowed has twice the resolution of a typical Wadjet Eye title (640×360), but more importantly the art work looks great. Voice-acting and dialog is nicely done, and you can also enable a commentary track as you play to learn more about the development. In sum, if you enjoy the genre, you're sure to enjoy Unavowed.
Unavowed is a solid retro adventure game. The story is not always evenly paced, but it is compelling with plenty of twists and surprises. The gameplay is simple, and the parts all work together to make a coherent whole.
An adventure to savour, and one to revisit in the years to come.
Engaging story, fascinating characters, a well crafted gameplay and lots of decisions. Sure, there are some minor flaws in the plot, but you can say that Unavowed is a great adventure, probably the best of 2018.

Unavowed succeeds as a mature point-and-click adventure set in an urban fantasy world, though it falters in some of the fine print.
You become proud member of Unavowed - an ancient society dedicated to stopping evil. And it is amusing adventure.

If you're a fan of the point-and-click genre, Unavowed should definitely be on your radar.
Having played most of Wadjet Eye's games, I'm convinced that Unavowed is the studio's best product hands down. The branching storyline, the moral choices, the characterization of the protagonists and the overall atmosphere make Unavowed a great candidate for the best adventure game of the year.
WadjetEye Games has done it again! Unavowed does not disappoint at all, relying on the tried-and-tested formula that has worked so well in the past, but now taking that and polishing it beyond belief, and then expertly blending in themes from popular titles, sprinkling a whole host of fresh ideas into the pot to make for one of the most engaging experiences of the year.
Unavowed is a great point-and-click adventure made by a studio at the very top of their game. It’s accessible to new players without compromising anything for more experienced point-and-click enthusiasts.
All in all Unavowed was a really fun experience that I’m planning on going through multiple times just to see how things play out. I’m currently on my second playthough and have a total of 9 hours in the game, which is really good for the $14.99 price tag. I would definitely recommend that anyone and everyone picks this game up. I had a blast and the story/character interactions genuinely brought tears to my eyes on a number of occasions, and made me laugh even more. It’s definitely a must play!
Unavowed is an old school adventure with beautiful pixel art graphics, very good story and surprising replayability that comes with the built-in RPG elements. Due to the very fair price, it'd be a mistake to miss it.
