Comments
A short point & click game inspired by writings of Franz Kafka. It is weird with a unique hand-drawn graphics style, unusual humor, dealing with some common stereotypes in order to point them out in a non-offensive way, old Jewish music and voice overs for all dialogues (featuring a strong central-european accent :-).
Controls
Mouse - click for movement or interaction. Moving to upper part of the screen shows inventory. Space to skip dialogues, Esc for menu. The game saves your progress automatically.
An Apology
The game contains a little ugly stereotyping. Most of the game was made in 2012, before I learned to take these things seriously and there is no way to change it now - I could either never release the game or keep it as it is. I decided to release it, as there has been a lot of work put into it and most of the game is nice and funny/weird in a non-offensive way. If you feel insulted by the game, please accept my apology, it was never my intention.
About the Game
The game was inspired by a short story called Before the Law which is part of The Trial by Franz Kafka.
Before the Law was made for Computer Games Course at Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics.
