I need to start this review by making clear that this is kind of barely a game. It's essentially a visual novel where you move your character in 3D space sometimes, with some light puzzles. That being said I do think that the 3D environments add to the game's sense of place and atmosphere. Anyway.
1000xResist is a story about a society of clones in the distant future, and their relationship with their creator/original, ALLMOTHER. We play as Watcher, a clone who is granted the unique ability to partake in communion, in which she experiences the memories of ALLMOTHER's life and the early history of their society.
The game presents an extremely textured look at the religion of this far-future society. Much effort was put into the way each character speaks, and you can really hear the nuances of each of their own versions of their faith in the way they speak. As the story goes on, the game becomes an examination of faith and tradition as generational trauma, and an extremely effective one at that.
