So with all this said Helpless is a very good post-apocalyptic, atmospheric game and another good game by the same people that did Shadow burglar, it has a really good story, very nice graphics and good characters.

The gameplay is good pretty simple basically it's a walking simulator, but the only difference is that the sun is extremely dangerous and you have to hide in the shadows it's an interesting concept.
Graphics

15 of 127 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics are very nice with plenty of bright colors and nice detail despite taking place in a deserty environment, sometimes you just want to stop and stare at some of it.
