A short, straightforward and bitersweet story about a real incident that took place in the USSR during the 1970's.

Very low budget, limited interactivity, repetitive, spotty translation and okay-wish graphics. Where the game really shines, though, is in its ambiance. Bright Lights at Svetlov takes place mostly inside an apartment and it's evident the developer took great care into building an accurate depiction of a 1980's Soviet household. It feels like peeking through a window to the past.

A short narrative game. The story on its own ain't amazing, but it has a bit a creative storytelling. It's just OK

The game's sometimes difficult to follow, as sometimes I found it hard to find the little minuscule and specific prompt in an object. I even started to get anxious because of all the slowly moving around the same place over and over again. In the end it was worth it though. Bright Lights of Svetlov reminds me why videogames are such a cool medium for story-telling. The vibes are also really nice, I dig a lot the different natural colors that give the house different vibes.

i really like this
