Beholder is an Android adventure game full of drama and unexpected moral decisions, skillfully ported by Creative Mobile Publishing from PC to the mobile platform. The game story makes the protagonist a small cog in a gloomy and bleak totalitarian state, where everyone follows each other in the hope of getting certain “buns” from state structures. In simple human terms, we have before us a simulator of an informer (snitch), and this is exactly what gamers who have downloaded this new product will become.
The main character Beholder is an unremarkable and quiet house manager named Karl, whose duties include spying on every tenant of an apartment building with passing denunciations in case they violate written and unspoken rules promoted by government agencies. Reading forbidden literature, currency exchange, bad words about the government, adultery – you can end up behind bars even for a mere trifle, for any trifle. And the collection of the evidence base falls on the shoulders of your ward Karl, who constantly rushes between the fear of being another victim of repression and is tormented by the need to neglect his moral principles.
The game Beholder , first of all, attracts with a variety of story lines. In addition to fulfilling directives from the government, the protagonist has the right to deal with his own private affairs. Because of this, the final can turn out to be very unpredictable, pushing the user to go through the project again, building their behavior in a different way. You can become a real demon, expelling tenants from apartments even for the smallest violation, or you can go over to the side of good, trying to help people in difficult situations. In any case, something has to be sacrificed – and in this dilemma the main difficulty and attraction of the novelty.
