Indigo Prophecy is an action-adventure game that involves the player in making decisions to alter the narrative. The name change in North America was made to avoid confusion with Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11 documentary film, which was released in 2004. Indigo Prophecy introduced elements like ethical ambiguity, romance, the inability to perish, and interactive storytelling that would endure in Quantic Dream later games.

I gave up when they decided to have a whole section dedicated to claustrophobia, the constant barrage of qte's were bad enough already.

This rEmAsTeReD game is just a waste of time and money. Story was atrocious with many plot holes, gameplay is unnecessarily "interactive" and while the concept is intriguing and interesting the developers failed in every part of executing it.

Do yourself a favor and avoid playing this game at all costs, if you're still curious just watch the game on youtube.

I remember wanting to play this game years ago, but I had a Gamecube instead of a PS2. I just finished playing this on the PS4, and I kind of hated it. The opening scene was fantastic, but overall the writing was terrible and incredibly derivative. The action scenes were absurdly over the top, and I wasn't even able to enjoy how laughable they were due to having to participate in the intrusive QTEs. I guess quality interactive movies were few and far between when this was first released, which is why it received so much praise. Thankfully we now have developers like Telltale and DONTNOD who are actively trying to tell worthwhile stories with interesting characters. I still plan on checking out Heavy Rain and Beyond Two Souls. When Fahrenheit worked it was a lot of fun, but any joy I felt was ground into the dirt by its dull gameplay, clumsy writing and (hopefully unintentional) racism.

So great ... until the end.

It's an amazing game with a compelling story and solid mechanics. And then you get to the end. Gah! I would have loved to have loved this game, but they really botched the landing.
