The Black Widow video game does not come from Marvel and does not integrate Natasha Romanoff. In fact, he staged a completely different woman, a real woman and a sentenced murderer named Luisa Collins, who entered the story by being the last woman to have been executed by death in the state of New South Wales. If the fact that it is a game on a real historical personality does not give you the chills, let us know a little pages of the story and also letted a look at this studio stream game.

Louisa Collins was born in 1847, in New South Wales. She was an Australian prisoner. Nicknamed "Borgia of Botany", she was convicted of the murder of her two spouses, Charles Andrews (murdered at 52) ​​and Michael Collins (murdered at 26). The tumultuous marriages and the relations that Louisa has knotted with these two men provoked the death of the same symptoms, one year apart. It was determined afterwards that Louisa had used arsenic to poison her two husbands. She was sentenced to death by hanging and executed on January 8, 1889 at Darlinghurst Prison, becoming the last Woman of New South Wales to be executed by hanging in history.

Development and history

The Black Widow video game has been developed and published by stream. The man to whom this concept has been awarded is Richard Fox, who describes his creation as a game that gives the player a flawless look on the trial, the condemnation and execution of Louisa Collins - the last woman to be suspended in The state of New South Wales. Mr. Fox also said this to potential players:

"With The Black Widow, I wanted to explore an unlimited choice of character conversations compared to predefined options for a more imaginative role play, complex narration and character development. As an experienced historical storyteller, I'm still looking for new ways to interact with characters in history. The Black Widow summarizes the ideas I have learned so far in an immediately recognizable format that allows players to evaluate themselves. "

Gameplay

Thus, the Black Widow video game actually reproduces all the familiar details of the initial case, taken from historical documents and letters, but brings them to a current and real-time situation. Players have to review all conversations and information and completely re-evaluate the case, making their own verdict, that is to say a judgment. Players can even contact Louisa via the "Table of Spirit" which is an important part of the game and a tribute to the old Ouja board game dating from 1890, one year after the execution of Louisa.

Details like this and other factors make the atmospheric presentation of this game excel. In fact, this game puts the players to the challenge of re-evaluating their own powers of deduction, observation and prejudice. The information officially available on Louisa, who is on the web and in this game, presents it like the wicked, with traces of her as being an adulterous woman, a drunkard, a liar and a murderer. However, we can also present the facts to the victim of inappropriate behavior, domestic violence and misogyny.

The main features and strengths of the Black Widow experience are:

• Communicate with a sentenced murderer
• Search for a historic trial for murder
• Ask questions and choose your own path via the "Spiritual Council"
• Solve a real mystery of murder
• Participate in a trial of the Victorian era
• Incredibly good atmosphere and visuals

Verdict

With this game, he wanted somehow bring the player back to that time and at that moment, and it worked perfectly. This game offers an iceful, alive and extremely exciting experience.
