Trivia
Every time a new game starts, the player character will be randomly assigned to be male or female. The protagonist's gender, however, will not influence the story in any way: in fact, the only difference will be whether the few lines of dialogue spoken at the beginning will be delivered by a male or female voice.

Alternate versions
In the first ever version of the game, the Captain Robert Witterel shot himself in the brain instead of his face.

Ingenious, Original Puzzle Adventure

Return of the Obra Dinn is an immensely clever puzzle adventure game that walks a tricky balance of giving you just enough information to be able to reasonable deduce the correct conclusions while leaving out just enough information to make you feel clever when you solve it. Don't let anybody spoil this for you, it's a truly unique, original experience.

Only complaints are very minor. Really wish that it was easier/more intuitive to jump around between memories when looking around for clues, since the interface is somewhat tedious, but it's honestly not enough to detract from the overall experience.
