Adios is a cinematic first-person game where you take the role of a pig farmer who has to let the mob use his pigs as a way to dispose of bodies. You relive the day when he finally decided that he is done with it and what is going to be his last day.

The story is emotional, yet still very short (you will finish the game in an hour) and forgettable. You spend the whole time doing chores and talking to your old friend who, in the end, will be your killer. He tries to convince you to change your mind, since he knows that after ending up with the mob, there isn't a way out.
During the story you will find out why he decided that he can't do that anymore and why he has to dispose of the bodies.
The atmosphere gives you the feel of loneliness and emptiness the main character feels and how he has already accepted his fate, knowing what the consequences are, but he doesn't care as he wants to do at least one good thing before he leaves this world.
Voice acting is the best part of the game, but the character models aren't that good, and the character models are what you're gonna look at the most.
This game has dialog choices to keep players more engaged through the story, but unfortunately, most of the time you're limited to only one dialog option, which doesn't make sense as two of them are presented, but one of them is grayed out. So, even though you have the freedom to choose what the main character will say, most of the time, the prior choices heavily limit your next dialog options by giving you only one of the two options available.
The subtitles aren't always accurate, sometimes they leave out a part of the sentence, probably because they wanted to put the whole sentence the “person A” says on the screen, before the “person B” replies.

All in all, a very short experience that, in my opinion, isn't worth the full price, nor anything above 50% of the initial price. The only thing left to say to this game is Adios.
