Najpiękniejszy prezent jaki mogłam dostać. Cała gra jest pod względem graficznym jest po prostu wspaniała. Świetna i wciągająca fabuła zapewniła mi świetną zabawę na godziny. Można tu zrobić naprawdę wiele rzeczy, m.in. grać w salonach w tutejszą grę. Każdy z napotkanych ptaków ma swój indywidualny styl i z częścią z nich można się fajnie bawić. Tytuł definitywnie wart polecenia!
This game felt like a cosy experience to me. Light a candle, get a cosy warm cup of coffee on my desk and play for a few hours a day. Story is pretty straightforward, but I will keep it spoiler free around here. The gameplay loop is very straightforward too. You can explore this vast lantern world as much as you want, there's a lot of tiny details in a lot of places, but in its core the game is linear with a quest book to help you look for the way forward. There's some, I would call collectibles, although in the end I didn't find a purpose for any of those, besides betting them on the tile game. Overall the game shines in the nongameplay elements. While the gameplay feels like a collectathon of 30 birds, literally, the nongameplay elements - narrative, music and art direction - really shine bright as there were so many times I was just enjoying the art and music produced from the background or even just the super funny humour introduced in the game. Definitely would recommend if you're looking to play a bit size lightweight experience!
30 Birds est une véritable pépite visuelle ! Le monde créé par le Ram Ram Studio est tout simplement superbe et intéressant à parcourir. Bien que le gameplay, l’histoire et les énigmes soient assez simples, la direction artistique aux mille détails qui s’offre à nous compense largement. Le jeu en devient même très relaxant car il n’offre finalement pas de défi particulier si ce n’est celui de fourrer son nez un peu partout et fouiner afin de ne rien rater de ce que l’imagination des créateurs a pu nous préparer. Fortement axé sur l’onirisme et l’érudition, 30 Birds est un jeu à parcourir sans hésitation afin de passer un beau moment de détente.
It's insane how under the radar this game has gone. The style it has is so unique and incredible. The gameplay is a bit lacking-- it's a simple enough adventure game with some cool minigames tacked in-- but the art is fantastic and makes it worth playing. The story isn't half bad either, though it didn't surprise me any during my brief 4.5 hour playthrough. It's mostly just a good adventure that's easy to play and beautiful to look at. Well worth an afternoon, especially when it's on sale for less than $10
well i think i really love it. such a beautiful graphics and a unique setting. the game might be extremely buggy though, e g i got stuck multiple times in different places; was unable to move the character at all; the point of view got locked on one place once no matter where i run. also i dont get it why people are hating on the tile game, seemed pretty easy to follow in my opinion, i liked it! it was a great playthrough overall
good
jeu incroyable, super ambiance, des graphismes splendides
とにかくビジュアルが良い 謎解きもほどほどの難易度
Just a nice experience, running around beautiful environments doing silly little games.
I don’t know of any other game that I play/like that doesn’t support Steam Cloud. So goodbye to hours of progress from Steam Deck after repairs. No recommendation if you expect basics like save game backup or sync.
