This game has a lot of problems: bad voice acting (german accents mixed with american ones); the character is very slow to act; worst of all - it has a propensity to freeze during loadings (and there is a lot of loadings). Which is a pity, because it gives you an insight into the dark days of Germany during World War II.I cannot recommend it.. Placed in 1944 Mayer, a Gestapo soldier, is attempting to hide his love for men with his never ending flirting with females. Engage in awkward dialogue and confusing puzzles in order to suceed with the plan to ki- TO BE CONTINUED.. A nice classic styled adventure game. A few unintuitive things were needed to progress though, had to resort to walkthroughs.. An interesting view on history, with a pretty good story.. There should be really more of those games. An adventure game with nice puzzles, not to hard and a capturing story line. I really enjoyed the time spent on trying to kill Hitler.. This is a good ww2-theemed point and click adventure game. You play an SS officer who is trying to kill Hitler. You go talk to german characters and try to find those that want to kill him and use your authority (and inventory) to carry out your goal of killing him. The visuals are really good and it has ok animations and music. The voice acting is Russian-level bad. A certain secretary namde Victoria is probably the worst voice actress in the history of gaming. I wanted to stab my ears..... Anyway I still like the game and am looking forward for part 2. 8\/10. A Stroke of Fate: Operation Valkyrie is a typical point-and-click adventure containing dry, emotionless, and uninspiring voice actors. They really should have done the game in German with English subtitles or at least cast actors with German accents. But even then, when you supply actors with no personality, it wouldn't have mattered much.The story takes place after the failed attempt of the original Operation Valkyrie and you play the role of an SS Officer with a secret desire to carry on the mission. Many of the clickable objects provide a mini 1940s German history lesson. It's slightly interesting, but the storytelling is pretty bland making this a boring experience overall.. I'm so extemly aroused by the main character of Gerhard Meyer in his uniform that I can't properly focus on the game.. Almost walked out of the house in full Gestapo uniform with shaving cream still on my face! 10\/10!But seriously, the artwork in this game is beautiful, and attention to detail is very well thought out! However, gameplay itself is a little on the slow side (I haven't finished the game yet as of this review, I will update if anything changes).I think it would help the player to know a little German history from the WWII era, the narration goes into a lot of detail about specific personalities from that time.Overall, I would recommend this game to anyone who likes adventure\/quest games.
