## What is The Renaissance of Evil?

Walk the Renaissance Italy in a thrilling mystery game as you explore the secret city of alchemists. Solve puzzle mini-games and find clues in hidden object scenes.

When a mysterious plague spreads across the country, the rumours of a miraculous cure fly from mouth to mouth. Apothecarium has gathered the brightest minds of the Renaissance, most renowned artists and scientists. That’s why Duke Medici, Master of Florence, sent his family there when the epidemic broke out… for a danger worse than the disease. Tasked to investigate their disappearance, you are now to explore the hidden city of alchemists with its dangerous mysteries.

### 1/5 — Can’t click

*2022-04-03*

I payed for this game and I can’t go any further because it doesn’t let you get certain items from the list !!!!!!!!!!!!

**Developer response:** Hello! Sorry for the inconvenience! Please email us about this issue at support@absolutist.com. Please describe the problem in more detail, send screenshots so that we can solve it faster. We will be happy to help you!

### 1/5 — Game is garbage

*2020-05-01*

This game is so full of bugs it is unplayable. Don’t waste your money or your time. Total trash.

The first time through when I gave the old man the potion, I never got the key and instructions, but I didn’t learn that until I read the Strategy Guide which I. Ever do, but got tired of wandering around and not being able to figure out the next step. So, I restarted with a new profile and when I started playing several of the puzzles just rewarded me without me completing them. I got the syringe that way, but I also had both parts in my inventory too. That really messed the game up. So I deleted the game and reinstalled and tried a third time and I again got both the components of different items and the full items. Every time I played though I couldn’t get the old man to give me the key so I could progress. This game is a garbage. I am a software engineer and this is just bad programming and no testing. I have uninstalled this joke of a game. I would like a refund because this game is unplayable.

**Developer response:** Hello! Sorry for the inconvenience! Please email us about this issue in more detail at support@absolutist.com.

### 1/5 — Really old game...way too much work

*2019-10-05*

Not fun at all.  Hard to figure out. Hint worthless, just points you to the map but the map doesn’t give any clue sometimes about what to do next.  Save your money.

**Developer response:** Hello! We are very sorry that you were unsatisfied with our game, because we make every effort to create a game that will appeal to all players.

### 1/5 — Save your money

*2019-10-02*

Enjoyable as I don’t mind the old style games though dialogue jumps, puzzles complete when barely started (without pressing skip) and it crashed entirely at one point.  And, without the map and hints, certain elements were illogical. It needed much more testing before release.

Plus, if another person wants to play the game, don’t bother; the game remembers things found in the first profile and the map/hints stop working.  Uninstalled/reinstalled yet it took the player right back to where they were before ...

**Developer response:** Hello! Thanks for your feedback! Please email us about this issue at support@absolutist.com. Please describe the problem in more detail, send screenshots so that we can solve it faster.
