Dead Synchronicity: Tomorrow Comes Today
Darkness.
And then there was light… but not enough for Michael to find out who he is and what happened to the world out there. The “Great Wave”, the “dissolved”… are just hollow words in his looted mind.
“Dead Synchronicity: Tomorrow Comes Today” is the first part of the “Dead Synchronicity” series:
Help Michael face a dying reality, a universe that’s fading away. Face a merciless world that gets sick and vanishes. Face no past, no present, no future. Face the impending moment of “dead synchronicity”.
And you’d better hurry. Because, otherwise… what will you do when Time dissolves itself?
A terrible pandemic is turning all of humanity into “the dissolved” – the sick whose deliria provide them with supernatural cognitive powers… but also steer them towards a gruesome death.

Review by The Adventure Library - all about point and click adventures
Good dystopian sci-fi story in a world on the brick of destruction. Try to find out who you are and what is happening in the world. Once you begin to understand and the next chapter should start - the game ends. Still, while obviously a sequel was planned, the game has a better ending than many other stories (or games). Just do not expect to have all mysteries solved.
The visual style is rather unique (and not bad), it is fully voiced and I enjoyed the few hours I needed to reach the end. There was only one puzzle - right at the end - that I could not solve alone (but that was quite good, after I understood it).
Conclusion:
Great, but rather short pnc that never got the planned sequel.

If you like point and click adventures and are looking for a mature story with quite an intriguing mix of dystopian elements and scifi 'Dead Synchronicity' might be right for you. The mysterious story kept me playing and the puzzles are mostly well implemented. For sure it is not an adventure that sacrifices Gameplay for the sake of the story. If you love traditional adventure games you'll probably not complain about that if not you probably will. Completing this game will likely take around 6 hours, maybe 7 or so if you take your time. There is a lot of dialog here, which is not uncommon for adventure games. Rushing it won't do you good. The more you listen the more you get drawn into this world. But keep in mind that this is only the first game. At the end you will learn a lot about the protagonist which from my point of view will probably give you at least some sort of accomplishment but it will lead to much bigger questions. No idea yet when or if the next game will be out but I'm looking forward to it.

got incredible atmosphere, character design and art style. The only one negative is the ending, i can't say that the ending was bad cos it had none the story just stopped abruptly and that was it. Am i missing something like a dlc or a siguel?

What a trip! I had to get used to the graphic style at first, but then I really liked it. The German dubbing is really well done and the atmosphere of the game is great. I haven't played anything like this in a long time. The story is very mature and does without the humor that is often typical of the genre. It deals with some really difficult topics. I didn't like the ending very much, as it reveals a completely confusing plot a few minutes before the end and leaves many questions unanswered. These are supposed to be addressed in the second episode of the game.
However, 11 years later, it's safe to assume that a second part is rather unlikely.

This is maybe the darkest game I ever played, and it is rather disturbing, but if that does not bother you, play this game from a great developer. The achievements are interesting and all tell a referral story.

An adventure game not for the faint of heart: experience mindshifts and time warps, deal with pimps and their "merchandise", disfigure faces to the point of unrecognition, do what you gotta do to get the job done. This one is dirty.
This comes with some of the best achievements to showcase.
Also has some inspiring trashy psychedelic rock tunes flowing through it.
Worth more than the dollar fifty I paid.

The Great Wave wiped everything out. People are getting sick with an illness that melts their bodies and minds “the Dissolved Ones.” You play as Michael, a “blankhead,” a man with no memory that woke up in a refugee camp run by the military. As you explore, you learn the world has been corrupted by the government and time itself is broken. You keep having visions along the way.
As you explore, you uncover some intense stories, and you meet Dr. Richard, a scientist you help to discover the truth. By the end, you might be the key to fixing the world. I’d say the game story is 11/10 great art, point & click gameplay is extremely difficult… you’ll have to search stuff up. But maaaan, it was worth it. Really hope for a sequel!! :ppp
