In order to progress, you must convince one of the very few black women in the game to take the job. It’s fairly typical point and click fetching game play.

Through a series of events, you need to find a monkey for an organ grinder, so you can acquire money. What is perhaps one of the worst moments and that may break this game for a player, comes in the middle of the game and I feel it is my duty to warn a potential player. This was one of the few early moments that actually got a giggle from me.
I could deal with this, I told myself, and I did for a while. There were just more and more points where I rolled my eyes and slumped lower and lower in my seat on the couch, going handheld mode with headphones the second my family came home.
I braced myself for the rest of the experience after this, figuring the tone had been set for my exploration into this game. (This is where the character in her underwear on the main art for this game on it’s sales pages comes from.) It became clear that Goodbye Deponia was always going to go for the easy joke, even if it was tired, juvenile, or unfunny.

This results in her somehow coming out of a full jumpsuit outfit and getting pulled away in her underwear, a situation the player then has to rescue her from. Quickly after this, the main character, Rufus, grabs onto the belt of his female companion, Goal, when they are in a dangerous situation to keep her from falling. I took a deep breath, reminded myself that this was one of the bad guys, and pressed on. Within the first fifteen minutes of the game, one of the villains of the game implied that a female character was acting strangely due to a visit from “Aunt Flo”. Goodbye Deponia got on my bad side almost right away as someone who values clever writing in this medium. I will keep it vague on overall plot progression, but there are just a few moments that I wanted to talk about because I feel that it is important for a potential buyer to be aware of, especially since they might have warded me away from this game if I had known. Excuse me giving some spoilers here, but I feel the need to inform you thoroughly of what you need to expect if you are considering this game.
