With the catch 22, that they will automatically change that charge to 33$ if they don't reach their 10,000,000 pre-order goal(set to be impossible, on purpose).

Pre-orders for the digital version of the PC game, Afterfall: InSanity are being taken as of today. Nicolas Games, the producer and publisher of the game decided to lead a unique and Afterfall Insanity has insane unprecedented marketing campaign by surprising everyone with the ’Afterfall: InSanity $1 pre-order’ project, which in short, gives players the opportunity to pre-order the game for a single dollar.

The game doesn't look bad. But yeah, the $1 thing, not going to happen.


Also, lol @ "Is this some kind of Observation Ruum?"

This is ****ed up.

- They're not going to reach the goal. I get it, this is a publicity stunt, but come on, at least pick a reasonable goal.
- This is a horrible precedent to set. 1 dollar games are no sustainable for the industry.

I just watched the "why" video.. And to make it sure. If you pre-order it for $1, and they are not going to meet their goal. They mentioned that "you won't be getting afterfall for $1 but doing a good deed for charity". This means you won't get afterfall at all if they don't meet the goal?

Indeed, your 1$ will be kept by them.

They could get 9,999,999 pre-orders and pocket all that money, and you get no game. It's pretty shady all around.

BUT if they do get 10,000,000(lol), you get the game for 1$ and they donate 5 million to charity. They know their game isn't going to sell, that's why. IT's a crappy indie Dead Space clone. It won't get commercials, probably won't even make it to Steam until months post release, ect.

It's not exactly a "pre-order" if there's a chance you won't be getting the game at all.

Wait what the ****? You don't even get the game if you preorder it for a dollar and it doesn't reach 10 million? Why is this getting publicity, this is retarded.

Nonono.

They keep the 1$, and you have to pay full price. If they don't reach their obviously impossible quota.

To be fair, they're donating the money to charity if they don't reach the goal, they're not keeping it for themselves. So then you'd have to repurchase the game for the real price if you actually want it.

This looks good but I already went mad even by looking at that guy playing, I mean, they hit you hundred times, how do you know your health if the whole monitor is already stained red?!?
plus the fight scenes are kinda clumsy and nerve racking.. And wtf is going on here, what is the story, where is this, why mutants, why the **** everything!?
