Blue Backpack at the top of their game with The Berlin Apartment. More about who these people are than what happens to them.

Digital ChumpsBen SheeneNov 20258.5/10Minimalist yet poignant, The Berlin Apartment offers a handful of narrative vignettes allowing players to experience the tumultuous history of Germany across the decades. Though brief, its stories pack an emotional punch that won't be forgotten.

So Many GamesChristopher LannooNov 20254.5/5 starsThere are few places that can match the modern history of a city like Berlin. The past century has seen regimes rise and fall in a massive way, due to which we often forget that the city was inhabited by regular people like ourselves. These are stories of victims, of those who refused to let these huge events stop their lives, of survivors. They are also tales of the beauty of the human spirit. The Berlin Apartment is a beautiful testimony to the perseverance of the people of Berlin and to human kindness itself.

Loot Level ChillKieran SinghNov 20258.5/10The Berlin Apartment tells some wonderful little stories that’ll make you feel emotions from both ends of the spectrum, and it gives a heartfelt glimpse into life in Berlin at key moments in its history.

VGChartzLee MehrDec 20253/10Beyond aggravating launch-window bugs (on Xbox) that need to be fumigated, The Berlin Apartment is an underwhelming living space managed by a greedy landlord.

Checkpoint GamingNov 20256/10The Berlin Apartment is certainly a nice tribute to the history of the titular city. With gorgeous scenery evolving through time that tells the tales of its residents, the apartment is a delight to explore. However, a more intriguing main narrative or engaging gameplay mechanics would’ve been a massive boon for the game. A gorgeous art style and heartwarming sentimentality make The Berlin Apartment an enjoyable experience, albeit one that struggles to stand against the genre’s best.
