Banshees of Inisherin: The Game

Based on a recent &quot;black comedy&quot; movie: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.imdb.com&#x2F;title&#x2F;tt11813216&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.imdb.com&#x2F;title&#x2F;tt11813216&#x2F;</a><p>Which is one of the weirdest and heaviest hitting films I&#x27;ve seen recently, and while there is some comedy, it is not a funny movie.

I found it incredibly hard to turn when I wanted to. Not sure if it is key detection or if I needed to have more precise timing.

Not sure why you&#x27;d turn this into a game (it&#x27;s awesome though!), but for anyone who hasn&#x27;t seen the movie - I&#x27;d recommend it. It really has stuck with me long after I saw it. Starts out with &quot;Father Ted&quot; vibes, but end up going... in other directions.

If punching a policeman is a sin, we may as well just pack up and go home.

&quot;Banshees&quot; was an interesting but puzzling film. I enjoyed it but I didn&#x27;t think it was quite as approachable as McDonaghs other films.<p>I suppose it&#x27;s supposed to be an allegory to the futility of the Irish Civil War? If we the audience can&#x27;t make a connection to something like that it feels a bit too abstract.<p>I didn&#x27;t make it far into the game, but it is a neat project.

&gt; I do worry sometimes I might just be entertaining myself while staving off the inevitable.<p>Pretty certain that Colm Doherty was not referring to this game when he said this, but somehow it seems applicable.<p>Brilliant job!

The key detection is not great. Fun idea though

I appreciate that is a full game with nice graphics. I found the controls a bit unresponsive. Had to press multiple times in order to turn a corner.

Where is the subtext of the Irish Civil War?! Worst Movie-to-Game adaptation since Spy Hunter: Nowhere to Run (2006).

Everybody here talks about a movie (which is briliant from my perspective), or controls (which could be better), but no one asks WHY is this game made?<p>It doesn&#x27;t make much sense it was created as a marketing device for a movie, it&#x27;s not that kind of movie. However, considering names and graphics it looks totally as authorized work. My guess is it&#x27;s a marketing device for an agency, which worked with a movie crew in some capacity and was granted a permission to use these assets for a bit of self-promotion.

I rarely watch a movie that is so unpleasant that I wish I&#x27;d never seen it, but this one falls into that category. It is a dark exploration of isolated people suffering from profound mental illness. It is not even remotely similar to &quot;In Bruges.&quot;<p>But it is beautifully photographed.

Love the art style, but I think you might need some sort of intro for the controls. Neither WASD nor arrow keys seem to have any effect, and the player seems to make random turns regardless of what key I have pressed, or whether I have any key pressed at all.

To me the film just made the Irish look like dumb and uncivilized drunkards.

Great game. Playing it for five minutes saved me from watching the movie.

There&#x27;s no up button on iOS. Not sure how to play without it.

I&#x27;d like to see the end but I cannot get past level 6. I&#x27;d enjoy a spoiler if anyone has it.<p>I enjoyed the film. There was this nagging feeling the whole time that there was supposed to be some sort of metaphor for the conflict in Ireland but I knew nothing about it, so it felt like I was missing something. I don&#x27;t know that I really understood what it was trying to say either way. I liked &#x27;In Bruges&#x27; a lot more personally.

Whatever the reason this should be a thing. They should do Triangle of Sadness next.

All in all, a pretty good digital adaptation. The movie was shear joy to watch.

Brilliant - no notes.<p>Makes me wish for more unconventional film-game adaptations.

Reminds me of another unexpected video game adaptation <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;greatgatsbygame.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;greatgatsbygame.com&#x2F;</a>

This game is unplayable on iphone

It&#x27;s pacman with old men

lmao what is wrong with you<p>Thank you.

Great concept. Has anyone else finished the film? I&#x27;m a bit past the thump on the door and not sure if I want to finish the movie if things keep going that way.
