Beholder is an adventure video game about life in a totalitarian police state. The game was developed by Warm Lamp Games and published by Alawar Entertainment on November 9, 2016. The game is supported on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS.
Story
Beholder is inspired by the dystopian works of George Orwell, Aldous Huxley, and Ray Bradbury.
Carl is a government-installed landlord in a totalitarian state. The State appoints Carl to spy on the tenants. The player can bug apartments while tenants are away, search their belongings for whatever can threaten the authority of the State, and profile them. The State requires the player to report anyone capable of violating the law or plotting subversive activities.
The game offers the player the choice of either following the commands of the Government or siding with the people who suffer from the oppressive directives.
Each game character has its personality, circumstances, and issues. Every decision that a player makes affects the way the story unfolds. The game has multiple endings, each of them being the direct result of decisions made by the player.
Development
Beholder was developed by the Russian team at Warm Lamp Games, located in Barnaul. The team was created based on the Barnaul division of Alawar Stargaze. The Work on the project began in October 2015. The prototype of Beholder contained elements of the economic game, which were expressed in the fact that the residents of the house paid rent to the main character for housing, and the player had to improve his living conditions, Later the creators decided to remove them. On April 26, 2016, the game appeared on the Kickstarter crowdfunding platform, where the developers requested $25,000 to fund the game's creation. During the development, this amount was never needed, and the decision was made to close the funding before the deadline. The game was also introduced on Steam Greenlight and, on May 9, reached 10th place among the projects submitted for approval by the community. During game creation, developers focused on games like Papers, Please and This War of Mine, as well as the works of George Orwell and Aldous Huxley.
Release and DLC
On October 6, 2016, a demo of Beholder appeared on the Steam store.
The game was released for Windows, MacOS and Linux on November 9, 2016. On May 17, 2017, the game was released for iOS and Android operating systems. On January 16 and 19, 2018, it was released for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One respectively.
On May 18, 2017, Steam released a DLC called Beholder - Blissful Sleep. In it, the government issues a bill which exposes all citizens who have reached the age of 85 to euthanasia. Hector Medina, the landlord succeeded by Carl Stein, is about 65 years old, but due to an error, Hector's age has been corrected to "85 years old". The player has to choose to either submit to fate and fall asleep with a "Blissful sleep" or to avoid euthanasia by various methods. Unlike in the base game, the protagonist has no family, except for a cat, and his 30-year-old son, who works on the construction of a railway to the north.
Reception
Beholder received positive reviews from most critics for the PC and iOS versions.
While praising the controls, Eurogamer's Mateusz Zdanowicz said, "Gameplay will prove uncomplicated for everyone who has ever dealt with classic adventure games." He called the game "an interesting and quite unusual title, although in terms of mechanics it offers nothing extraordinary." He then said "An interesting plot setting combined with the need to make difficult decisions determine the strength of this independent production."
Tasos Lazarides of TouchArcade also praised the controls saying, "Controlling your character is pretty easy even on smaller phone screens, with the contextual icons helping you navigate your environments without much trouble." He also praised the game's art style and music stating, "With great art and music and plenty of choices, which lead to different endings, Beholder is definitely a game you should be playing." On the other hand, James O'Conner of GameSpot gave the game a mixed review, praising the game's concept, though being mixed the game's repetitive gameplay stating: "Beholder is based on a strong concept, and it has moments that land well, but it’s also held back by repetition and an unexciting script".
The console ports of the game received mixed reviews. Gabriella Petty of Push Square wrote, "Beholder: Complete Edition is a fun strategy game. Its gorgeous yet subtle dystopian aesthetic illustrates a totalitarian world on the brink of revolution, with an interesting set of characters and soundtrack to boot." She then said "But while it’s geared towards player agency, it can feel like you're under the thumb of the state more often than not, and that means you may feel forced to walk a path you didn't necessarily choose."
