Yesterday Origins is marketed as a prequel, but in reality it is both that and a traditional sequel to Pendulo's darkest and most realistic adventure game.
Set both in the middle ages and modern days, it has quite a bit of character drama around the life of the immortal protagonist. Despite the outworldy premise and some extreme plot points, the characters are realistically fallible and morally grey, especially the girlfriend character in modern days.
The plot itself is gritty to the point where sometimes the typical point 'n' click gameplay bits almost feel out of place, despite their mostly logical nature.
On the whole though, this is probably one of Pendulo's best games, one that is so complete in its storytelling that you can safely skip the first game and just rely on this one's superior narrative and play time.
