"Dominique Pamplemousse is an interesting game, to say the least. It successfully pulls off its point-and-click gameplay, its modern noir aesthetic, and its musical aspects. Though, if you really want to play one of those genres, don’t expect a full-blown musical or gritty noir story, but you will get a fantastic small experience made by someone who clearly cares about what they’re making. This is a game well worth the asking price. And at $5, you really can’t go wrong. Spend an afternoon experiencing a fascinatingly unique title among the sea of indie titles currently on the market." - David Rhinehart of Geekenstein
Angela at GameSpew writes: "Dominique Pamplemousse is a PC game you probably haven’t heard of, and upon seeing the title you probably think it is some weird French thing (for the record, “pamplemousse” is French for grapefruit) but the truth is quite different. This point-and-click adventure game will only take about an hour and a half to complete and, although the answers aren’t always obvious, the puzzles presented are very simple. But what holds it above many other quick games and what makes it worth purchasing, is its unique presentation."
Marcus Estrada writes: "Everyone knows about crowdfunding these days. However, most people know of it purely thanks to Kickstarter. Kickstarter is great and all but it’s not the only player in the marketplace! IndieGogo also exists and has seen a variety of successful campaigns over the years. Thanks to its smaller audience there haven’t been nearly as many video game projects, much less released titles just yet. Curious of what you might have missed on the IndieGogo platform? Here’s a list of a handful of fantastic games which have released thanks to them thus far."
SteamFirst: Before I begin, I want to stress that this poor review of Dominique Pamplemousse is not something I do gladly. For all of its faults, this game is so sincere. This is obviously a labor of love and not an attempt at cynically cashing in on a trend. Okay, let me crack my knuckles and we’ll begin.
