15 Days

I did The Mystery of the Druids with some friends and somehow decided to play every House of Dreams adventure games. Well this one is ... Barely an adventure game to be honest. More like a bad visual novel. Barely any puzzles or reflexion needed, just go where the people tell you to go and see what happens next. I did have a few giggles here and there but ... about 10€ for that ? Not worth it. There are a bunch of other better adventure games that last longer for less than that price on Steam. Oh by the way. The crashes. It is not even stable, got a lot of crashes that set me back several minutes of boring walk.

Adventure with a nice story. To play on Linux I used Proton 6.3 and protontricks. The game is crashing a lot with d3dx9_39.dll, so I changed it using winecfg executed via protontricks --gui. After that I got one crash before end of the game, but it was not a problem, because I was saving often. Alt+Tab worked well pausing game in background.

[h3]TLDR[/h3] 15 Days is one of those games where I wish there was a "recommended with caveats" or "recommended on sale" option, because that's exactly what I would pick for this game. It's a short point and click game with ups and downs. Nothing to write home about, but nothing awful either. If you like point and click titles and it's on sale, get it. If not, pass. [h3]The Good[/h3] - Mechanically, this is your typical point-and-click game, so if you are looking for something story-focused and easy, this will have you covered. - Pressing Space highlights all interactable elements, which can be a great help in some instances. - The plot is nothing special, but I will give it kudos for not ending how I expected it to, even if many of the other twists were predictable. - Mike is the MVP of the gang. - Mini-games can be skipped, which is good, because: [h3]The Bad[/h3] - The minigames are not very well explained at all, and as such can be quite frustrating. - Some of the characters are absolute dolts, especially the main girl (I already forgot her name) and Jack. - There is a maze section and it is every bit as awful as you might imagine. - The audio mix is terrible in some places, with super loud cutscenes and very hushed gameplay. [h3]The Ugly[/h3] - I had several consistent crashes, which could usually only be avoided by saving juuuuuuust before the crash trigger and then reloading. - Just like Overclocked: A History if Violence, this game immediately loops you back into a new game right after finishing it. Even weirder is that when you load the game after having done a session, it will not load you back into where you left of--you'll have to load a manual save from in-game for that.

Apesar dos comentários tão negativos, resolvi dar uma chance e não achei tão ruim assim apesar de não ser tão bom, mas é bom frisar que é um jogo de 11 anos atrás e que ficou parado no tempo, talvez jogar próximo do lançamento teria sido melhor.

[i][b]15 Days[/b], a game that doesn’t take 15 days to complete, but it’ll feel like it.[/i] Our verdict: [b]Unworthy[/b] Find out why in [url=https://tgexp.com/15-days/]our full game review[/url].

una vera schifezza, pessimo sotto tanti punti di vista, ho perso il conto delle volte in cui è crashato. non c'è un puzzle per tutto il gioco, nessun enigma, solo dialoghi infiniti che non puoi nemmeno portare avanti con un clic, puoi saltare solo intere sequenze perdendo parti di informazioni importanti o parti di trama, che comunque è davvero di scarso valore. Il doppiaggio fa pena, i personaggi hanno un background appena accennato il che le rende davvero piatti, non c'è proprio nulla che si salvi, ci sono parti di gioco in cui devi letteralmente attraversare una scena e basta, sicuramente il peggior prodotto di House of Tales.
