Vella is the only sane person in a society that, having come to terms with the fact that there is a series of Eldrich horrors that stalk the countryside destroying villages, has created a system whereby the best and brightest young ladies are elaborately dressed up and offered as a sacrifice to a creature at something called a вЂMaidensвЂ™ FeastвЂ™. Unlike the vast majority of such stories however, said boy and girl apparently have nothing to do with each other, connected only by the thematic threads of coming of age, rebelling against their parents and the sacrifices demanded by their respective societies. The game is, as so many stories are, about a boy and a girl.

Rather than have the game spend another six months in development actively irritating backers who were told to expect their game in late 2012, and missing out on the potential revenue that is generally garnered through actually selling things, Double Fine have opted to release the game in a semi-episodic manner, releasing the first half now, and then (hopefully!) releasing the rest of the game as a free update in a few months time. In the usual Double Fine way, Broken Age arrives on our systems well over a year behind schedule, massively over budget and, curiously, incomplete. One thing you may have noticed about the games I just listed is that, whilst they were all Kickstarted after the Double Fine Adventure project, they all got a release long before it.

Regardless, the massive success of Double FineвЂ™s Kickstarter drive opened up the floodgates to a brave new world of player-funded content previously starving indies are now being paid upfront for their work, and old dead franchises and genres are being reunited with the people that actually care enough to throw money at them. In much the same way as Minecraft birthed an entire generation of games sold in an incomplete state, but were developed (or are currently being developed) further over time, the success of Double FineвЂ™s вЂDouble Fine AdventureвЂ™ can be considered the biggest influence upon the now abundant crowdfunded indie game movement, which has since given us such gems as the rogue-ish starship sim FTL: Faster Than Light, deathmatch hack and slash Chivalry: Medieval Warfare and, er, the OUYA. Unless you don't think they're funny, in which case we totally weren't trying to be funny.It says a lot about Double Fine and their following that even before its release, Broken Age quickly became one of the most influential titles of recent years. All-star voice cast, including Elijah Wood, Jack Black, Jennifer Hale, Wil Wheaton, and Pendleton Ward.Original soundtrack, composed by Peter McConnell, recorded by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra.They said adventure games were dead, but then Broken Age punched its hand out of the grave and grabbed you by the wrist and you screamed just like in the end of Carrie except what you screamed was 'I love adventure games so much!' And sorry I spoiled the end of Carrie. The player can freely switch between their stories, helping them take control of their own lives, and dealing with the unexpected adventures that follow.

Vella Tartine and Shay Volta are two teenagers in strangely similar situations, but radically different worlds.
