About This Game Walkerman is a Visual Novel about hunting supernatural creatures. Each creature obeys a unique set of rules which must be exploited in order to defeat them, in a fashion similar to the old folk tales about vampires and garlic, or werewolves and silver bullets. Each act of Walkerman centers on a creature and the process of investigating it. Players will study the monster in order to ascertain its weaknesses, gather the necessary items, and then confront it in battle. Combat takes place on an isometric, pseudo-board game in which the player selects actions from a list of options. These battle sequences have multiple solutions, depending on the player's collected items and their knowledge of the monster. Players also steer the protagonist through his personal life in a similar fashion: deciding who to trust, where to borrow money, etc which alters how the story progresses.Prologue: The Thing in the WealdJorgen, a nineteen year-old serf, has just embarked upon a peculiar career: monster hunting.

Which would be more tolerable if the story itself didn't read like a much blander version of The Witcher.. I am a big fan of a well written story a a choice centered story where the choices you make have a real effect and this game very much delivered on that for me. It's a shame it hasn't gotten more attention really.+Pros-The music is very enjoyable for the most part, the main theme was a bit jarring at first but it grew on me in a campy way.- The main character seems to have a lot of depth to him and has an actual personality in him, rather than many games like this where the main character is as much of a blank slate as possible.- The supporting cast has thus far seems to have a lot of potential depth to them and while screen time in the first episode was mostly dedicated to introducing them I look forward to seeing how the game builds on them in the future.- The world building is well done and seems interesting. This is helped by the fact that aside from a few points where the prose gets a bit too flowery, the writing is very well done and helps to suck you in.-The actual fight and build up to the fight with the enemy in this feels pretty well done in that it encourages you to make logical choices and follow an investigative through line in order to stand a chance in the final battle. While this first one was pretty straight forward and easy I look forward to seeing what kind of weird rules and tricks can be brought in in the future.-Cons-While the build up to the fights and the actual execution of the creatures weakness' all make sense and flow together well the actual work of doing the fight feels a bit too trial and error. The essential problem with the encounter is that you lack some very important information during the fight that makes it impossible to tell if using an item early was going to screw you over in the long run. Essentially because the game lets you use most of your options at any time it's very easy to use up an option early that the game expected you to save for later. While this isn't horrible in the first fight, if it's not tightened up a bit moving forward I can see it getting frustrating as the fights become more complex. Thankfully this is mitigated somewhat by the fact that you can save at any time, but going through the same scene over and over could get very frustrating very easily.- Neutral- While I enjoyed him, the main character is a bit of a jerk and this doesn't always gel with people reading the story. He's not necesarily a bad person and he's written that way on purpose but don't go into this expecting a golden boy protaganist, this guys has his own set of issues.Overall I hugely recommend this game and am looking forward to seeing the story develop in the future.. An interesting light novel that's much more mature in tone and writing than most you'll find on Steam. I was initially drawn in by the premise; artstyle, and seemingly small fanbase. The story follows young man who wants to follow in his father's footsteps of being, (basically the equivalent of some paranormal night hunter). Walkerman is one wrapped in mystery but shortly after starting you’ll find that the author has created an entire world that has an overwhelming sense of history and potential. And you explore it through the lense of a character who is not well adapted to the world himself, out on a sort of fool's journey. Thematically there’s a lot of mystery and tension, as there’s hints of things like political and religious conflict poking their heads very early within the story’s introduction. I often found myself thinking heavily on what information or items I’d like to take and what I was willing to discard. The narrative is rather strong so there is an overall lack of many choices, but the ones you make do seem to all hold some significance for a grander plot that is essentially promised to unfold in the preceding acts. (So take that with a grain of salt). I’m interested in following Walkerman a bit longer as the groundwork for a good story is all laid out fairly well. I definitely enjoyed my time with it, my curiosity is peaked. I honestly wish there was more of a mixed option in the reviews section for cases like this, as this is sort of how I feel towards my recommendation of this series at the moment. Unfortunately I honestly just can’t give it a strong recommendation for two reasons... Firstly this review is based only on the First Act, I think it’d be unwise to write off for a series based on that. Secondly the writing can be somewhat hard to follow as certain vernacular is created for and used among many characters. There’s also a rather large assortment of made up terms and a few non-colloquial words scattered about to add a sort of texture to the world building. (Making the story sometimes a bit difficult to follow, you can’t really read it half-***edly). TLDR; I definitely enjoyed my time with this series, but can’t give it a strong recommendation based on the “First Act” alone. There’s a lot to love here for fans of fantasy stories with deep lore and a new world to delve into, unfortunately it’s just at a surface level at the moment. It’s also a bit hard to follow due to the writer’s use of differing fictional dialect, and some fictitious terms, however if you can look past that and pay attention well it shouldn’t pose too much of an issue. I’ll change my review overtime if I feel I need to add or make adjustments based on the progression of the story, but overall I’m leaning towards a positive first impression. Conclusion: There is promise here; but I’d advise trying out the free prologue to see if you have issue’s following robust setting, lore, and rather difficult to follow dialect. My biggest critism would have to be a lack of choices but seeing the scope of this series there's definately room for them down the road. (I apologize for any inconsistency or poor writing. I literally just finished the first act at the time of writing this and sort of slapped this together at roughly 2 in the morning. I had quite a bit to think about so I hope you found this helpful).. Overall I enjoyed this game, though if it isn't already obvious it heavily draws its inspiration from the popular Witcher series. Even coming a little close to plaigirism in a few parts but it more or less never goes past alternate universe fanfiction levels. As for the gameplay its your standard VN, except for when it comes to the "Battle" part of the game. Using a square tiled map complete with tokens and animations seems a little pointless since you don't actually have any control over where you move your character. Instead, a series of decisions pop up based on context and what clues, inventory or choices gathered prior to the hunt. Essentially it means you're still playing a VN, except now your choices are represented on a tiled map. The game they're going for here means I understand why you can't give the player actual control of a tile based combat system but it feels like they wanted to do something turn based and instead had no time, budget or couldn't make the system work so they just left it in there minus the gameplay.Not a huge fan of the chapter ending song, sorry. The rest of the soundtrack is great though! Sound in general is pretty good, everything is mixed right and edited nicely. At first the art didn't do anything for me but it started to grow on me. I don't love it but I'm fine with it, no complaints. Character designs are good for the most part, though obviously the ladies got more work put into them than the men. Unfortunately our first main story monster isn't particularly rememberable, which is a shame. The writing is okay. Mostly because Jorgen, our protaganist, can be a real ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. I don't like ignorance of this type from my MC. Because the story is first person, it sucks to be a character who is blatantly racist and intolerant of anything not "Raider". (his people) Doesn't matter if it makes sense in the setting, I still don't have to like it.The only other point of contention was with the dancer girl and the socio-political workings of the Walkerman-verse. It felt like a combination of a massive expositional info-dump (nobody likes those) and people who took one class in world politics and have declared themselves experts in the field. It also reminded me of a number of conversations Geralt of Rivia has had in both the games, books and comics.Now after all this, I enjoyed my time with Walkerman. I don't know if I'll start another playthrough until the second act comes out. I prefer to finish my VN's one route at a time. That said I very much enjoyed the parts where I went out to collect items or clues, do investigations, all in preparation of the final conflict with the "Weird". These moments are the game's strongest point. The fact that you can't just ask every question, collect every clue and item based on your decisions means what you have to work with at the final conflict can be very different from what you might have collected in other routes. This means that sometimes you have to choose carefully your questions or decisions because you might not be able to exhaust a dialogue tree like other games. Some characters just don't want to answer every question and there's only so many hours in the day. As long as they put most of their efforts towards this aspect of the game I'll keep supporting it.. Walkerman is a pretty unique game. The closest comparison I can come up with is that it's similar to a Witcher VN. The focus is, rather than on killing monsters, you're supposed to find out how you're supposed to do that, experimenting and inquiring to find the set of rules each creature operates on. It's literally a matter of life or death, and requires you to keep a close eye on the plot and any odd occurences, lest you miss a detail that leads to your horrible, horrible death.Speaking of the story, the setting's great. The game does a very good job of putting you in the shoes of Jorgen, rather than making him a self-insert. He's a rural farm-boy with a set of prejudices and preconceptions that leads to some very interesting internal monologues and reactions to other characters. It's an age of decadence and corruption, and he can't help but see moral failings in everyone he sees; the foreign dancer-girl, who you'd expect your average VN protagonist to lust after, is instead labelled a degenerate. It's lovely.I really enjoyed this game, and I'm looking forward to seeing Act 2.. Edit: After completing chapter 2 and absolutely loving it I can safely say that the majority of my issues were dealt with. The main character does indeed begin to lose some of the stick up his\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665 That and the little flashes of brilliance shine much brighter and more consistently. It is definitely worth slogging though his tirades in this if only so you can appreciate how far he comes later.Conflicted. I liked most things about the game, the story, the setting, and the characters -except- for the main character, he is insufferable. Honestly having to view the world through his eyes almost spoils the whole thing. He isn't a complete jackass but having to listen to his teenage angst ridden self righteous tirades about how the world is falling into "degeneracy" and how everyone is a degenerate but him was a bit much. The story could have focused so much more heavily on the interesting elements of what being a walkerman entails and having more encounters with the weird but instead it chooses to linger on its protagonist's reactionary political views. You could cut a solid 80% of the massive political diatribes and have a better game.I might still pick up chapter 2 If there's some kind of growth in the main protagonist or at least significantly less of his whinging because I think that there is a very strong setting and elements outside of the main character are handled well. There were many points were I wished this was a more traditional RPG where I could pick how my character felt about things. As it is I would liken the experience to going on an amazing fantasy monster hunt while being stuck with a teenage edge lord whining the whole way.. Interesting story with enough horror and intrigue to keep me clicking but this game only includes Act 1 at the moment which can be completed in a few hours. I'd suggest waiting for all 5 chapters to be released, if it ever does, before purchasing this game though. There are multiple branches that probably make this single chapter worthwhile but you probably won't be able to see the effects of your choices till the next chapters. While I'm anticapting the completion of the game, I fear it might not be finished judging by the gap between releases and how far it's strayed from its Kickstarter release schedule.
