Probably one of the things I appreciate
most in an indie game is for it to surprise me, and with its unwillingness to be
constrained by a clear single genre Indivisible absolutely does that. Blending
elements of a platforming adventure, an RPG, and even some Metroidvania
exploration, it’s not quite like anything else I’ve played and that’s usually a
good thing. Strict traditional turn-based combat tends to be dull to me so in
particular it’s the pretty active combat in the game that I came to appreciate
the more I played. You’ll certainly get into a consistent rhythm, working attack
patterns you find most successful. But, there’s just enough strategy to what
could just be a button-mashing mess to make it interesting in terms of who you
attack with how, when, and then chaining into someone else. To sweeten the deal
further I have to say that I really enjoyed the game’s characters, with the
quality of the writing and voice acting their interactions just rang a bit more
true than I typically see in an RPG. They’re still pretty traditional in their
roles at the core but they have some genuine personality and that was a real
driver for me to return and see where the story took things next. While genre
purists may look at this as a hodge podge mutt of an experience I appreciate the
mix and am hoping to see more in this vein in the future.
