Cabernet is a recently released narrative driven 2D game about Vampires. There has lately been a bit of a drought when it came to this kind of games, especially those who have lots of passion put behind. Or better to say, many get lost in the sea of indie games and realize this side of the industry is also very competitive. People often put a ton of passion in their projects, even when they aren’t particularly successful. Thankfully for Cabernet, this was not the case, and it was blessed with a successful launch and lots of good reviews. We at Infinite Start will document this big indie success.
Cabernet is gorgeous
With 700 positive reviews, Cabernet accrued a total of 90% positive ratings, which already puts it in an amazing place for the studio behind. While this might not be the first game they made, this one has been one of their biggest achievements. Reviewers all across the space are praising this new title, and it seems that it was well received by the majority of players. For those who seek a tragic storytelling game, this might be the perfect fit.
The game does not only offer a compelling narrative, but there’s also some RPG gameplay elements in it. All of the important bits of the game seem to be polished, which brought a ton of positive reception in. In a world where people are quite disillusioned with the current gaming situation going on, there’s still tons of hope in the indie industry.
Thanks to movements like the Triple I initiative, people are starting to recognize that indie games are so much better compared to current triple A games. Cabernet is yet another win for the indie space, and another win for treating game development as an art form that has cultural impact too.
