Played in Polish language (but I like english too much to write my review in Polish)

Only played a bit. The core point of the game is to tell a story, but this is exactly where it falls short. The storywriting feels very poor to me, the way people talk, interact (the old person you talk to about the tangerines is first quite agressive about you approaching him only to become softhearted after you tell him oh just how much you love your daughter, and suddenly feels guilty for not spending christmas with his mother and asks YOU to check on her instead of doing it himself, wut???), the story is one huge plot armor in of itself (the main character forgets to ask for a specific address, but a random lady just so happens to know who he is referring to). Also it kinda feels cringe in general. There are no stakes, because a few words about how much the main character loves his daughter doesn't punch at all when we know nothing about the characters. It's also pretty unrealistic, nobody talks like that. Also there is a moment where a long text appears while the other character is talking but there is no way to stop the dialogue from continuing or to tell when it will do so.

I like the idea of teaching people how it used to be in Polish PRL, but honestly, it doesn't do anything well enough to seriously be played. I'd rather read a PRL book.

괜찮은 루트 타면 괜찮은 게임. 나름 훈훈하고 재미있음. 대신 개판으로 하면 그대로 경찰에 끌려가는 듯. (당연한 말) 그리고 달리기가 없음.

도전과제 가이드 대충 번역:
참고한 거: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2691144427

Powerful Toilet Lord - 게임 시작 이후 독백이 끝나고 움직일 수 있을 때 오른쪽 화장실에서 물 내리기.

it w. add aa nice debate - 아파트를 떠난 다음 밴치에 앉아 있는 남자랑 (강제) 대화 할 때 다음 선택지를 누르면 달성. 1. "Sure, I need to relax" (그래, 좀 쉬는 것도 괜찮겠지.) 2. "Sure,. let's do sooo" (그래, 그러자ㅏㅏ) 3. "Offf sourse" (당연하쥐이) (취한 듯)

VERRYYY STROONG - 위에 대화를 하지 않고, (그러기 위해서 처음 대화 뜰 때 "You know I don't do that anymore..."[너 내가 그짓 그만둔 거 알잖아...] 누르면 됨) 계속 오른쪽으로 가서 카드 가진 남자를 발견해서 대화하기. (E키로 상호작용 가능한 첫번째 사람) 대화하다 선택지 나올 때 "Steal the card * fight *"(카드키를 뺏는다. *싸우기*) 누르기. 그런 다음 바로 싸움이 시작되니 왼쪽으로 움직여 맞지 않게 도망치며 F로 상대를 때려눕히면 됨. 단 한 대도 맞으면 안 되고, 만약 맞았다면 죽고 다시 시작하는 걸 추천. 쓰러트리면 도전과제 달성. 다만 달성하고 가만히 있지 말고 오른쪽으로 달려서 다른 도전과제 달성하러 가는 걸 추천.

Ouch - 위에 하고나서 오른쪽으로 달려가서 HERE 써져 있는 곳 들어가서 녹색 옷 입은 남다와 대화하다 마지막에 "Sorry, I'm in a hurry."(ㅈㅅ. 저 바쁨.) 누르면 달성

For freedom - 처음부터 다시 시작. 술은 스킵이 빠름. 카드 가진 남자 부분에서 뭘 어떻게 해도 상관 없음. 참고한 가이드 쓴 사람은 싸우라 하는데 안 싸워도 됐던 거 같기도, 개인적으로는 오래전에 해서 기억이 잘 안 남. 아무튼 진행해서 Here 써진 아파트 들어간 다음, 이번에는 "For this favor, that would be appropriate."(그정도야. 그쪽 호의에 비하면. 뭐.) 누르면 됨. 그런 다음 "Ok, I can help" (그래. 도와줄게.) 누르고 차 타서 오른쪽으로 공장가면 됨. 거기서 "I work in the factory across from here and I wanna join you" (오, 저는 저 건너편에 있는 공장에서 일하는데, 저도 동참하고 싶네요.) 누르고 시위하는 사람 다가가서는 "And you are going to let the ruling party for that?" (그럼 넌 고작 그것 때문에 여당을 놔두는 거야?) 누르면 됨. 그런 다음 계속 플레이해서 엔딩 보면 됨.

Those were the days, my comrades. - 게임 다시 하던가 위에 도전과제 한 다음 리트라이 눌러서 빠르게 가던가. 아무튼 다시 시위대 만났을 때 "Perhaps, it's not that bad of an idea. It's not gonna change anything" (뭐, 나쁜 의견은 아니네. 아무것도 안 변하겠지만.) 누르고 "In my opinion it makes a lot of sense." (내 생각엔, 그게 더 말이 되는 것 같아.) 누르면 됨. 그런 다음 집에 들어가서 엔딩 볼 때까지 하면 됨.

3번 4번 말고는 그냥 온건한 선택지로 했더니 다 깨졌던 거 같은데 기억이 안 남.

Проходится минут за 20–30.
Из плюсов — очень атмосферно: мрачная пиксель-графика, музыка, душевная история про отца, который хочет купить дочке мандарины и куклу. Игра бесплатная, времени много не отнимет.
Минусы: из-за короткой продолжительности толком не проникаешься персонажами.

Красивая короткая история с несколькими исходами. Из проблем чуть чуть поломанный перевод, но там чисто дилемма в падежах, с кем не бывает. А так музыка, и атмосфера берут за душу. Прям чувствуется вайб СНГ стран с этими забастовками рабочих и повсеместной полицией. В общем одно удовольствие!

напиши отзыв про игру Martial Law со смайликами
«Martial Law» — это короткая, но очень сильная история о выживании в ПНР 🇵🇱. Вот честный отзыв:
Атмосфера: 10/10 ❄️. Игра идеально передает дух 80-х: дефицит, очереди, серые улицы и постоянное чувство безнадеги. Пиксель-арт выглядит очень стильно и аутентично 📺.
Сюжет: Это не просто игра, а эмоциональный удар 💔. Ты играешь за обычного человека, который пытается просто увидеть свою дочь, несмотря на комендантский час и танки на улицах 💂‍♂️.
Геймплей: Довольно простой (point-and-click), но каждое решение имеет значение ⚖️. В игре несколько концовок, и не все из них счастливые, что заставляет задуматься о реальной истории того времени 📜.
Итог:
✅ Бесплатно
✅ Глубокий смысл
✅ Проходится за 30-40 минут ⏱️
❌ Оставляет тяжелый осадок на душе... но в хорошем смысле.
Однозначно рекомендую, если любишь серьезные исторические драмы! 🕯️🏙️

Мне нравится как передана атмосфера того времени, ты реально погружаешься в эту небольшую историю очередной семьи. Геймплей незамысловатый, всё довольно просто, ачивки собрать тоже не так уж и сложно, сюжет минут на 20, может 15, но и задача стояла рассказать о Польше 80 годов, а не занять игрока на час.

Szkoda, że nie można dać oceny neutralnej. Bardzo chciałabym lubić tę grę, ale gameplay jest powolny i bardziej wybija z immersji, niż ją pogłębia. W dialogach zdarzają się drobne, ale rzucające się w oczy błędy (w szczególności ortograficzne, ale razi też m.in. niekonsekwencja w stosowaniu znaków interpunkcyjnych). Chętnie spróbuję ją ukończyć, bo mimo wszystko to dobrze, że takie gry powstają, a poza tym całość prezentuje się estetycznie, natomiast ślamazarność gameplayu i niewielka ilość elementów interaktywnych raczej zniechęcają do jej doświadczania i sprawiają, że proste czynności wydają się rozwleczone, pomimo ograniczonej skali gry.

Martial Law, Polonya’da komünizmle birlikte doğan zorlukları ve o dönemdeki ailelerin yaşadığı gerçekleri, düşünce tarzlarını ve dünyayı algılama biçimlerini çok başarılı bir şekilde hissettiriyor. Oyunda küçük bir ailenin hayatına, günlük kaygılarına, korkularına ve umutlarına tanık oluyorsunuz. Bazen basit bir konuşma ya da evin içinde geçen bir sahne bile o dönemin baskısını ve insanların birbirine olan güvenini hissettiriyor.

Tarihi bir oyun olmasına rağmen oynarken sıkıcı değil; dramatik anlarla birlikte bazen ufak gülümseten detaylar da var. Karakterlerin tepkileri ve seçimleriniz hikayeyi şekillendirmese de, onların yaşadığı dünyayı anlamanızı sağlıyor. Kısa ama etkili bir deneyim, hem düşündürüyor hem de merak uyandırıyor.

Kesinlikle denemeye değer, küçük ama akılda kalıcı bir oyun! 🎮

Es ist ein Pixelartspiel, mit dem sich ein wenig Zeit vertreiben lässt. Für ein kostenloses Spiel ist es definitiv hübsch gemacht. Inhaltlich geht es vor allem darum, dass die Hauptfigur Stanislaw sich sein Weihnachtsfest retten will, bzw. das Weihnachtsfest seiner Tochter. Dafür gilt es im kommunistischen Polen das Jahres 1981 ein paar Mandarinen aufzutreiben. Anklänge an den Strei in der Danziger Werft enthält das Spiel von daher selbstredend. Es ist eine Geschichte von Selbstlosigkeit, wie sie im Kontext von Weihnachten immer erzählt werden kann, aber nicht wirklich einen narrativen Mehrwert hat.
Die Steuerung ist dabei einfach und erfolgt ausschließlich über die Tastatur. Da lässt sich auch mit viel Mühe nicht viel falsch machen in der heutigen Zeit, womit über die Vorzüge der Steuerung das Relevanteste gesagt wäre. Die einzelnen Tasten auszuprobieren, sollte ein jeder Mensch für sich selbst schaffen können.
Spannender als die Geschichte selbst ist hingegen, dass zwischendrin immer wieder kleine Fakten über das kommunistische Polen in das Spiel eingearbeitet sind. Davon hätte es gerne mehr geben können, weil es das Spiel nun nochmal deutlich interessanter macht und in diesem Aspekt ist wohl auch das größte Potenzial des Spiels im Sinne vorhanden gewesen. Geschichtsvermittlung in Spielen ist zumeist zwar eine Gratwanderung, aber hier hätte gerne mehr davon stattfinden können.
Das Spiel eignet sich zum netten kleinen Zeitvertreib, aber es ist letztlich zu kurz geraten, um eine Begeisterung beim Spielen zu erzielen, die einen wirklich nachhaltig dazu bringen könnte, das Spiel zu empfehlen.

Schönes Spiel. Mir gefällt, dass es zwischendurch immer wieder Erklärungen wie
[quote]Pewex war eine 1972 während der kommunistischen Ära in Polen gegründete Ladenkette, die Zahlungen nur in US-Dollar und anderen Hartwährungen akzeptierte, anstatt in der Landeswährung Zloty. Pewex war die einzige Quelle, um Waren zu erwerben, die zu dieser Zeit in Polen nicht erhältlich waren, wie beispielsweise Elektronikartikel aus dem Westen.[/quote]
gibt. Das macht das Spiel für die Leute verständlich, die keinen persönlichen Bezug zum Polen dieser Zeit haben. Das Setting des Spiels ist noch frisch und bietet noch Ausbaupotenzial für weitere Themen wie das Leben der Deutschen auf polnischem Gebiet. Es macht Sinn, das hier vor der Martial Law: Our Spring Demo zu spielen.

Martial Law spins around the historical event from communist Poland in 1981 and it's Christmas Day, we meet a loving father who tries to bring his daughter some gifts. Gameplay is mostly about choosing the right dialogue. What you say and do could lead to a different ending, with good branching ways. It is a very simple game but has a touching story with a blend of comedy and raison d'être.

Martial Law é uma experiência que vale o download pelo seu contexto histórico e arte de personagens caprichada, mas que deixa um gosto agridoce de "quero mais" justamente por não se aprofundar onde deveria. Embora seja uma recomendação válida por ser gratuito e extremamente rápido (levando cerca de 10 a 15 minutos para zerar), fica evidente que o jogo sofre por ser apressado demais.

A premissa de viver a Polônia comunista tinha um potencial enorme para ser algo verdadeiramente marcante, mas acaba se perdendo em curiosidades históricas que surgem de forma aleatória e uma trama familiar entre o protagonista, a esposa e a filha que soa um tanto forçada.

É um projeto com boas ideias e uma estética interessante, mas que funcionaria muito melhor se tivesse sido desenvolvido com mais calma e camadas. No fim das contas, é um passatempo honesto para quem tem pouco tempo, mas que entrega apenas uma fração do impacto que poderia ter tido se fosse uma obra mais robusta.

Très belle histoire et très belle ambiance. On a une belle représentation de la Pologne sous la loi martiale, avec quelques petits éléments de contexte historique et culturel qui aident à s'y plonger. Même si c'est pas spécialement bien écrit, c'est réconfortant, et c'est ça le plus important !

I realized this 3/4ths of the way through the game, but I thought it was called Marital Law because he's divorced, not Martial Law because he's Polish.

Польская Народная Республика, канун рождества 1981 года. Эта игра - очень милый рассказ о жизни бедного работяги, желавшего подарить своей дочке довольно дорогую на тот момент куклу, по пути встретившего множество глубоких персонажей, которым он помог и они помогли ему.
Помимо того, что она бесплатная, так еще и проходится буквально за пол часа. Я считаю, что игра получила незаслуженно малую огласку и она достойна большего.
Советую ее к прохождению, таким сентиментальным людям как я игра понравится.

«Martial Law» представляет собой камерную и душевную визуальную новеллу, которая оставляет после прохождения светлые, хотя и немного грустные чувства. Это бесплатный проект, предлагающий насыщенный эмоциональный опыт за небольшое время.

В центре сюжета [spoiler] оказывается мужчина с низким социальным статусом, вынужденный выживать в условиях коммунистической Польши. Его главная цель, несмотря на все унижения и трудности, оставаться рядом с дочерью и делать ее счастливой. Игра рассказывает очень личную историю о родительской любви, показывая бытовую борьбу за достоинство и человеческие отношения в непростых исторических условиях [/spoiler]

Игровой процесс представляет собой классическую визуальную новеллу с элементами квеста. Основное взаимодействие заключается в принятии решений во время диалогов и исследовании локаций. Ваш выбор напрямую влияет на развитие сюжета и ведет к одной из нескольких концовок. Особого внимания заслуживает образовательный аспект игры, которая выступает в роли культурологического гида, знакомящего с польскими реалиями 1980 х годов. Приятная пиксельная графика и качественное звуковое сопровождение создают уникальную атмосферу восточноевропейского города того времени.

Что касается достижений, то игра идеально подходит для их полного сбора. Все ачивки можно получить менее чем за час самостоятельно, либо следуя простым и понятным руководствам от сообщества Steam. Это делает процесс стопроцентного завершения увлекательным и необременительным.

В итоге «Martial Law» можно рекомендовать ценителям камерных эмоциональных сюжетов и любителям визуальных новелл. Это тот редкий случай, когда небольшой и бесплатный проект оставляет после себя глубокий след и запоминается своей искренностью и атмосферностью.

Martial Law is an interesting game if I'm being honest. The game is a short story that can branch to different areas based on your actions (there is one ending if you do it correctly). Love the pixel art!

The only complaint I have is that it feels like a walking simulator at times.

Игра "Martial Law" оставила смешанные впечатления. С одной стороны, сеттинг постапокалиптического Чикаго с бандами, сражающимися за власть, довольно интересный и создает мрачную атмосферу. Система боя, хотя и не без изъянов, предлагает разнообразие тактик с использованием огнестрельного оружия и ближнего боя. Развитие персонажа, с возможностью улучшения навыков и кастомизации снаряжения, тоже добавляет глубины.

Однако, множество багов и недоработок существенно портит впечатление. Искусственный интеллект противников часто ведет себя нелогично, а некоторые миссии кажутся неоправданно сложными из-за дисбаланса. Сюжет, хотя и имеет потенциал, подан довольно сумбурно и не всегда понятно. Графика тоже выглядит устаревшей. В целом, игра могла бы быть намного лучше, если бы разработчики уделили больше внимания полировке и оптимизации. Рекомендую только тем, кто готов мириться с техническими проблемами ради интересной идеи и сеттинга.

ciężko się wczuć w grę przez płytkość dialogów i błędy w zapisie, jakoś nie widzę tego, żeby w PRL-u i to jeszcze z randomowym przechodniem używać słów typu "kurde, spoko, ogarnąć", dla mnie to burzy imersję i jest niespójne. ładna historia o magii dobroci w święta, no ale nikt na ulicy nie zachowuje się tak, jak te postacie. na plus ładna muzyczka i grafika, notki objaśniające pojęcia. na minus niewielka ilość interakcji (po co była opcja skakania?).

gierka miała potencjał, ale przez spłycenie takich problemów jak rozbita rodzina czy samotność jakoś mnie nie zachwyciła

Krótka lecz znakomita gra przedstawająca okres stanu wojennego w PRL i problemy zwykłego szarego robotnika w okresie świątecznym.
Oprawa wizualna gry jest w stylu retro lecz dodaje to klimat do gry.
A więc plusami gry są:
-oddanie klimatu
-kilka możliwych zakończeń
-tłumaczenie jak wyglądały niektóre rzeczy w PRL
-tłumaczenia na kilka języków
-gra jest darmowa
-ładna oprawa audio-wizualna
-osiągnięcia
-Polska gra
A na minus to jedyne do czego mogę się czepiać to trochę mało interakcji z otoczeniem i ludźmi
Polecam grę dla osób lubiących takie klimaty lub chętnych się czegoś dowiedzieć z tego okresu.

An interesting game with some educational history facts incorporated. Short but well-written. Not all story arcs have associated achievements, so if you only play for the achievements you'll miss some good interactions. It's short so it's worth seeing all of the alternatives offered.

"Martial Law" is a Polish game jam/tech demo, less of a sincerely made game and more just something thrown together quickly to submit something to the game jam... at no stage were gamers considered here. That's not to say this is without substance, but what substance there is gets limited to a badly translated, barely interactive Polish 2D side scrolling "adventure" about how tough life was several decades ago in Poland. That gets a bit close to my "no politics in gaming" personal rule, but ultimately what matters most is not how much this guy wanted to win a game jam, but what's good for you, the gamer.

This is not good for you, the gamer, it's short, preachy, badly made and seriously not fun to play.

What do you do in the game? A very small, shallow bit of 2D side scrolling adventuring and a lot of clicking through godawful writing that seems to be from the guy who provides all the translations for Google Translate while he was having a stroke.

So, it's hard to describe this as a game, the focus of the product is more like that of an e-book/visual novel, there's only minor, shallow and uninteresting gameplay elements. The crux of this is to push some very low quality, badly done fan-fiction tier writing, where we see once more a developer fail to understand the importance of "Show, don't tell", and for whatever reason, weren't able to convey their narrative through gameplay, giving us endless lines of badly written e-book text instead. My gaming rig is not a kindle.

This is not a sincerely made product, it was made for a game jam, which is a problem. It was done in a constrained period of time; professional game development takes years of effort from teams of talented and qualified people. A "game" slapped together in a weekend by an amateur simply isn't going to have any value for gamers, and that plays out clearly with this shovelware.

Also, products created in game jams were never intended for gamers, they exist only to stroke the ego of amateur developers who can't get a real job in the industry. When developers, especially untalented ones, put themselves before gamers, garbage like "Martial Law" is the inevitable result.

It's improper for shovelware like this to be published through Steam Direct, because it's harmful. This half-baked, rushed, non-professional product, not designed for gamers, is taking up space on the Steam store that should be given over to genuine, talented developers who do the right thing and make fully developed, not rushed products for gamers. This makes it harder for gamers like you and me to find these genuinely made products.

This features really godawful pixelcrap "art" instead of real graphics. It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating 3D visuals, or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter. What matters is that this looks much worse than most other games because of that decision, and that's a major deterrent to gamers. Games like Terraria and Stardew Valley succeeded [i]despite[/i] the bad graphics, not because of them.

Now on to pricing and value for gamers.

This is "free" enough (not every "free" game in the "free" section is truly free, there's usually some hidden price tag), at least you won't be expected to spend any more money after you download this, but just because something is free doesn't mean it's good, and the cost of a game is more than just financial, your time is valuable too.

Since free games don't contribute to your game collector badge and other profile stuff, is this a worthwhile addition to your Steam library?

This is a "nope". While it won't necessarily cost you money, the time and hard drive space it requires could be better invested in one of the many higher-quality alternatives on Steam.

The only thing i dont like of this game is how short it is.
Personally i love piano music, but the setting, the history facts, the life behind every character... I truly say that i love this game and how it is made, you can tell its made with love and an urge to tell a story, but without rushing anything.

I was never that focused on a game this fast since time ago, this game is a MUST PLAY, even if you are a casual player, action games player, happy games player, sad games player, or even if you dont know what to do, you will enjoy this, right now im headed for other endings, so i love that the devs put that effort in their game.

If you are a player go ahead and play this, i dont know what are you waiting for, and if you are a dev, thank you for making such a wonderful story, including other cultures and their historic struggles and sharing with all the world your art, because this is art. Im very thankful that theres still people like you guys, who make this kind of games, you connected perfectly at least with me, and for making this game free, wich for me is unvelieveable for how good this is.

I hope you found this review useful, try this game and have a good time, thanks for reading.

[b]🎮 Огляд гри:[/b] Martial Law — це така собі коротка інтерактивна драма про одного чоловіка і його сім’ю в епоху комуністичної Польщі. День за днем він намагається виконати просту, але дуже важливу для себе місію — принести ляльку дочці, серед труднощів і викликів системи. Гра лінійна, але має кілька другорядних закінчень, залежно від Ваших виборів. Сюжет цікавий, але дуже короткий — відчувається, що можна було розгорнути історію ширше.

Стиль ілюстрацій простий, але в міру атмосферний, передає настрій епохи.

[b]⭐ Загальна оцінка:[/b] Для мене ця гра — як швидкий, але щемкий спалах емоцій. Ідея сильна, сюжет змушує задуматися, але реалізація занадто стисла. Ставлю [b]3,2 з 5[/b] — бо справді сподобалась задумка, але історія хотіла б більше простору.
