A must play
Feels like a straight adaption of a short story to a first person game. The story itself is fairly engrossing. Trying to figure out what exactly is going on while the beautiful dialogue and voice acting carry you along. The actual interactive elements aren't much to write home about but for what it is at only an hour long, it's worth a playthrough.
First and foremost, to my achievement hunters... this is a quick and easy 100%! I had just over three hours of game time, but that was more than likely closer to the low twos. Had a few pauses and interruptions during my play.
Anyway, this was an okay game. Honestly, if it weren't for the ending and then realizing why the game was called "Adios," I'd probably have completely forgotten about it by now. So bravo for making it memorable. Dark, but memorable.

HAVEN'T FINISHED BUT IT'S GOOFY
i don't mind it but you have to be in the right mood for it
I like walking simulators, if the narrative is good. Sometimes, they feel like a movie in which you have some kind of control of the pace and the character's interactions.
'Adios' is one of these games: it has a good narrative, a compelling and emotional story with a couple of strong moments, but perhaps it lacks a little more exploration and interactions - or maybe it lacks the discovery of more narrative points or scenes through the exploration, you can examine items but this doesn't affect anything.
Despite of this, I enjoyed it and it's a very short game, so you can play it in one sit. Anenjoyable little experience, overall.

I said adios to this game after 15 minutes
Completed with 100% of achievements unlocked (1,000G). Very limited on "gameplay", but this story of a pig farmer ending his connection with the mob is an interesting, deeply personal tale of remorse. This takes the form of a day in which the player undertakes chores around his farm, accompanied by the mob hitman - who while a close friend, ultimately has been sent to kill him. The writing and voice acting is excellent, serving the sell the concept very effectively - and while it's not a game that I'd soon replay, it's been a worthwhile experience.
Too short to tell the story well and the game is a little crunchy overall. However, I love the story idea and the way it's portrayed isn't bad. I love the ending that you know is coming but is still kind of a shock.

Short game, finished in less than an hour and a half, the voice acting for the characters were good, the gameplay was simple enough, and the ending was... full circle. Took me longer to finish because i wanted to platinum the game. And the dialogues between the characters were fluid and was carried out great. Overall, good game.

An excellent short narrative about a pig farmer who no longer wants to work for the mob. Really liked how you slowly learned about them and their reasons for wanting out as the story progressed. It's a story absolutely worth exploring.
One of the biggest pieces of shit i´ve played in a while, buggy, boring and with one of the most stupids and non-interesting stories
É simples. É divertido sim, mas é simples. Não me imagino jogando outra vez, mas achei interessante quando joguei.
A narrativa é bem dramática, então é bom estar na vibe para realmente curtir os diálogos.

Kind of relaxing game to play: not very long not very memorable
Beautiful and heartbreaking.
Short game that i only played for achievements. Nothing much to garner from here, although i could tell that the writing was at least decent.
more of a visual novel than a game. however great story and art direction. the main voice actors killed it so fucking hard. nice little game :)
solid, very short walking simulator with fairly minimal interactivity. Not sure this takes full advantage of the medium, as there's a lot of standing in place listening to dialogue, but the story is mostly compelling and it doesn't overstay its welcome
I would've just shot the guy.
PD: I like the concept of short games as in short films, neat.

Stellar writing and voice acting. LOVE this game

The 10 or so minutes where you’re in your house cooking dinner and calling your neighbour and son are great, but everything else is underwhelming at best and grating at worst. The art style doesn’t suit the game, the gameplay elements feel too streamlined and absent from consequence, and the overall dialogue maybe is decent for video game standards but that’s a low standard. I’ve seen the same writing hundreds of times in films and shows and it’s not interesting anymore. For a game so enamored with its writing, you’d think it’d be more novel or expressive.
Lo que más me ha impresionado de ADIOS es una sensación, la de cuando tu amigo mafioso se marcha, y te deja solo en la granja. Llevas cerca de una hora de partida, pero es un momento de soledad tan rotundo y silencioso que, ya conociendo al protagonista y su circunstancia, te desgarra por dentro.
Small game, full with story. I do not have problem with graphics - they are OK. Music wasn't good enough. The gameplay is good.
pretty good
This game is good, I liked his story and his atmosphere, listening to classical music at the beginning of the game cuz the tapes and the records was a cool experience, but unfortunately the game has many frame drops on Xbox One and without giving spoilers, the ending is a trash
Loved the story and interactivity in this one a whole lot.
Un Walking Simulator cortito que no está mal.
The most impressive feature was one that appeared in Depression Quest. Even there, it was a mechanic that played into the game's themes and how you played the game.
That same feature here is only used as an emotional twist that doesn't land as well due to it being so removed from how the game is played or anything substantial. There is no gameplay aspect to this game's most striking trick. The game would be exactly the same if those choices were removed. You don't get points for showing me something interesting, and then preventing me from engaging with it. This is an interactive medium.

A neat, short experience. Feels more like an interactive film than a game and it may be too steep of an asking price, but the impactful writing and exemplary voice acting are really something.
