About Yesterday Origins
About this game
Discover the latest adventure from Pendulo Studios, creators of the Runaway series!
"Yesterday Origins" will take the immortal heroes, John Yesterday and his other half Pauline, not only across the world, but across history itself. This interwoven narration gives the plot its depth and richness.
It's 1418. In the dead of night, young John is publically humiliated and dragged through the street. He is imprisoned by the Spanish Inquisition under suspicion of witchcraft.
Later, he undergoes an alchemical transformation making him immortal. But the potion used during the ceremony has been tampered with by priest Ginés de Orduña. This means that after each resurrection, John completely forgets who he is.
In the current day, John and Pauline are searching for an artefact that is needed to make the potion, this time correctly. During their investigation, they will have to face dangerous new protagonists who want to steal their secrets...

A fairly stock point and click adventure game. The interest I could have had in the weird and wacky plot were marred by an insufferable protagonist.

I can recommend this game if you
a) already played the prequel ('Yesterday') and
b) were intrigued by that game's story enough to want to see the complete picture.
I think the first game is better and definitely would recommend playing the prequel before giving this one a try. Yesterday Origins gives the overarching story a kind of closure but surprisingly still suffers from janky controls. Puzzles are overall fair. It took me around 8 hours to complete the game.
-> Not the best point & click game out there but enjoyable nonetheless if you liked the first one!

Not perfect by any means, the controls can be frustrating at times, but the story is interesting, some good puzzles.
I would recommend giving it a go if your looking for a new puzzler,
