Games are a product between reality and fantasy, most games build an illusory world based on reality, but for "Intika", it is an imaginary world to reflect the absurdity of reality.
As far as the first impression is concerned, this game is not my favorite game type, this is not just because it is a game-oriented game, but more because the whole game is full of absurdity, abstraction and weirdness from seeing to experiencing it, although it is indeed an experience of a game, but it is more like reading a "famous book" presented in the form of a game.
The devil whispers, and the faith is impure
If you put aside the beginning of the game, at least in terms of first impressions, the whole game is relatively normal from the perspective of realistic logic, the unwelcome young nun Intica and the old nuns who ostracize her, all the characters and developments here are not too unexpected for the player, and all this is dull until the appearance of the demon whisper.
The first time the devil's whisper was when Intica was fetching water, the old nun assigned her to fetch five poks of water, and these five pokes of watermark Tika actually needed to be done in the most primitive way, from lifting the bucket to putting it in the well, and then turning the rope to sink the bucket to the bottom of the well, etc., and so on five times was simply beyond my expectations.
I would have almost cursed for this kind of physical practice in other games, but in this game, combined with the whispers in my ear telling that there is a pump to pump water, not only Intica's heart has become very subtle in the game, but players outside the game have also seen the "art" of the game for the first time.
After the completion of the old nun, she mercilessly overturned the fruits of the player's labor, and in the sacrament session, Intica was once again out of etiquette because of her "whimsy". The expected punishment did not come, and Intica was assigned to deliver the letter outside.
Because of the previous report, Intica was harassed by the administrator, and the demon's whisper appeared in the cave for the second time. The demon's voice echoed through the cave, and every word pierced Intica's heart, not only the old nuns were dissatisfied with her, but Intica was also disgusted with the old nuns' behavior.
At this time, the dim cave in the game is like a Shura hell under the influence of demons, the ground is cracked, and the sound of bewitchment is incessant, and the only way to calm this situation is to stick to the faith and pray to return to normal.
At this time, Intica's heart was extremely tormented, although she hated the old nuns, but also because she was a nun and was annoyed by the impurity of God's faith, the whispers in her mind made Intica feel that she had been possessed by demons, and on the way she met Elijah, and decided to go to St. John's Cathedral to seek the reliquary to be purified, to eliminate the demons in her body, in order to obtain the purest faith in God.
But the irony is that even this unclean Intica still wants to purify the demons of their faith in God, but the letter she sends out is a letter of dismissal to her, and her faith has long been denied.
Peel back the garment, and nothing remains
Although the faith has been denied, Intica thinks of purifying the demons in her body in addition to her grief, so it is imperative to go to the church with Elijah. In the process, Ilya had to have his arm amputated due to sepsis, and Intica had been stripped of his priesthood and cult status, Ilya wanted to find the reliquary to restore his broken arm, and Intica also wanted to use this power to relieve himself.
After trekking through mountains and waters, the two finally arrived at the church, but unfortunately the reliquary in front of them did not show a miracle to connect to Elijah's severed arm, even though his actions reverently kissed the relics repeatedly, but only the shouts and curses of the guards echoed in the church. In the process, the priest was mistakenly killed by the guards he called, Ilya escaped with the reliquary, and Intica was imprisoned. The jailer who met afterwards insulted Intica, perhaps it was the demonic power that Intica was able to escape, and after she met Elijah, she still insisted on purifying the demon in her body, Ilya just said that the reliquary was sold for less than 5 rubles.
Taking the reliquary for 25 rubles, Intica holding the reliquary looked like a demon in the mirror, even though she kept praying and kissing the reliquary, but these actions were also carried out in the form of a demon, and the miracle was ineffective again, and the impatient Intica opened the reliquary...... It's empty, and it's like Intika's heart. Looking up in the mirror again, the demon was gone, leaving only Intica unkempt and holding a reliquary.
Frankly, I just felt like I was experiencing an absurd and bizarre farce of impure nuns, fugitive men with broken arms, and a world of faith in the Virgin Mary and God. Through the flashing 2D memory screen, we know that Intica in the past yearns for romance and love like most girls, simple and kind, why the girl Intica became a nun Intica We don't know, but through the repeated demon whispers, we know that even if it is a nun, Intica is still the girl in the past.
The monastery requires every nun to have absolute faith in God, and the slightest distraction is a symbol of depravity and uncleanness, and Intica is naturally bound by this absolute belief when she lives in the monastery, and there are many nuns in the monastery, but in fact they all have a common symbol - nuns who believe in God. When the alien Intica discovers the impurity of his faith, what he wants to do is also to purify the demon belief in God, but God does not exist in the first place, is nothing, and is an empty thing.
When Elijah knelt down and prayed for a miracle in the reliquary, the answer he got was that God was dead, was God really dead? Or is it that the so-called God, the so-called devil, are the depressed breath of the past life in everyone's heart, those sad memories are like a shadow and are not forgotten for a moment, God is ourselves, the devil is ourselves, so we put aside the cloak of lies, we see ourselves in the mirror. God is dead, demons are gone, and we can only believe in ourselves.
