WE. THE REVOLUTION PC

Your decision in the courtroom will affect your family relations and raise or loser their bar of how much they like you. Your family also doesn’t really like you very much it turns out, apart from your youngest son. Then you get to pull the rope and behead the guilty, so it’s all good Viva la Revolution!Īt the end of the day, you will return to your family at home unless there is a story event or you chose to go to the gambling den to play dice. If it’s red you still have potentially two wrong responses, so it’s a gamble. You can preselect whether you want to give a careless, humility, aggressive or manipulative answer for each part and it will turn green or red to show whether you are on the right track or not. You can use intrigue points that you have to try to get an idea about what the crowd is feeling for each section of the speech, but it’s all a bit woolly and I never really got the grasp of it. If you sentence someone to the guillotine, and this will happen a lot, you will have the option to give a speech to rally the crowd in your favour, honestly, this is a pain in the ass as the crowd is so fickle and I never seemed to make them like me. Your family, the common folk, the revolutionaries and the aristocrats will generally all have a different opinion of what they think the outcome should be, so it’s about keeping the balance or you may find yourself getting assassinated late at night and getting a game over. Basically, trying to keep everyone happy is the main aim of this game if you want to survive. But this in no way should affect your decision, unlike modern times the judge can totally ignore them and go with their own choice, although this will not make the jury happy. Once you have done this you get to ask the questions you have unlocked for more information, the answers you receive will sway the jury’s decision in whether they find the defendant guilty or not guilty.

Also, it may have worked better on the PC as trying to get the left stick to select the right theme was tricky and it would sometimes move off to another one just as I hit confirm – resulting in selecting a wrong answer. This wasn’t always as simple as it seemed as sometimes there are red herrings to trip you up and you only have so many wrong attempts before you can’t ask any more questions. You do this based on what was in the report provided and certain parts will be shown as images with short explanations such as ‘a bloody knife’, you then have to link it to the right theme, motive, evidence, accusation, offenders personality, method, etc. The Revolution you take the role of a Judge of the tribunal, each day it’s up to you to review a case and decide whether they are guilty or not based on the evidence presented to you and by successfully completing the lines of questioning.

To anyone reading this, in no way do I wish harm to our Queen and this should not be seen as an act of treason. Sounds crazy right? But in France, this happened to their King! Although he didn’t have the hat and handbag.

Imagine our little Queen in a guillotine wearing one of her little hats and a little pink handbag flapping around at her side as the blade comes down while the crowd cheers on. Let me try to put it into some kind of modern context for you Remember those riots a few years back? I honestly can’t remember what they were about now, but imagine they had kept going and the people turned against the monarchy and a judge and jury decided that the Queen was against the rights of the people and they decided to behead her. The Revolution, but it helped me to understand why the revolution had started and what all the craziness was all about, at least now in 2019 I think it seems kind of crazy, but those were different times. I’m not saying this is necessary to play We. Anyway, I had to search Wikipedia for information on the French Revolution to try to grasp a basic understanding of what it was all about. Now I must admit, I’m not really a history buff, I dropped history in school in favour of Geography, although I am still regretting that as I had to climb Mount Snowdon which I’m still slightly traumatised about to this day, but I’m getting off-topic here. Off with your head!! Sorry, I’m getting a little ahead of myself… Sure, we’ve had courtroom games before, such as Phoenix Wright, but this is very different and a lot more serious in nature as it’s based on a real historical event. Based on the French Revolution in Paris, you are a Judge of the tribunal, named Alexis Fidele, and it’s your duty to bring justice to those who deserve it. The Revolution, from Polish Developer Polyslash and publisher Klabater, is a bit different from your typical game.
