Players will take on the role of Felix, a thoughtful young man who, along with his fellow citizens, faces the imminent threat of falling under the control of the city’s authoritarian Leader once and for all, effectively losing their humanity. Accidentally becoming the only person who consciously recognizes the threat, young Felix must try to stop the Leader from playing the Absolute tone...

The real review

People are digging Amanita Design's latest point-and-click adventure, Phonopolis, for its gorgeous art style and charming, thoughtful story about fighting authoritarianism. The puzzles are clever and the whole vibe is playful, making it a solid experience for fans of the genre. The main gripes are about its value for money and some rough technical performance, with specific complaints about crashes and issues on PC and Mac platforms. It's not a long game, but if you're here for the studio's signature style and atmosphere, it delivers.
