The Last Time counting down to early 2016 release

Cops don't have it easy, at least not in the land of fiction. Whether it's the things they've seen or just the long hours and the stress, few seem to last for long without cracking up, getting divorced and turning to the bottle. In The Last Time, indie developer Daniel Black may start us down this well-worn path, but after that it's up to us in this "narrative-driven" point-and-click adventure that has successfully completed its Kickstarter campaign.

Jack Glover's life as a policeman started well, in a quiet town where he spent more time chatting with his partner than chasing criminals. But that all changed one day, forty years ago, when something went tragically wrong. Now living in a care home, he's old, cantankerous and pretty much withdrawn from the world. Until, that is, he gets a phone call from someone connected to the day he's spent 40 years trying to forget. At long last he must finally re-engage with the present and deal with the past.


The primary focus in this game is not so much on puzzles (though there will be some) as on story and moral choices. The developer promises that player decisions, large and small, will affect the path of the narrative and that there will be no "right" or "wrong" choices: the story will continue whatever you do. The short demo available certainly showcases this, being packed with (mostly small) decisions to make. It also highlights the game’s retro-styled art featuring some of the chunkiest pixels ever seen in an adventure game, which are not without a certain naive charm.

The Last Time is due out in early 2016, and will be available for Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS devices. You can keep up with developments at the official website.
