3D PUZZLE - Alchemist House

3D PUZZLE - Alchemist House is a mess. On top of that, it made me feel nauseous. Also, while I most likely received it for free (because ♥♥♥♥ no, my broke ass ain't paying that overinflated price for a game that's not my genre), I will treat it at the value it's being priced, and I don't mean the discount price of ~10€ it has, or the bundle price of ~1-2€, or even the 10€ it used to cost before the dev went insane. I mean the 97,50€ they demand normally, even though they bank on people seeing the insane discounts and going "Wow, what a bargain." After having played this game, I can confidently say that it's not a bargain, if it hasn't been clear already... The goal of the game is to put every item that's scattered on the floor back where it belongs. It's easy, and would make for a decent casual game. However, this game is infested with bugs everywhere, and the gameplay feels horrible due to several reasons. First, they overdid it with the effects. My graphics card is being toasted because of that, and the framerate suffers greatly. This may also be the reason why I got motion sickness from playing, along with the bobbing or the camera. Second, some items glitch away, so that when you pick them up, they aren't visible, and you can't tell what you carry. And when you put it down to deal with another item first, you risk losing it forever, and having to restart the game. Also, you can knock over items that haven't been placed yet, but it hasn't been an issue so far. Third, there are multiples of some items. This is no inherent problem, as the game is generous and lets you place those items at either spot, but maybe the game is [B]too[/B] generous, and thus, you can place the same item at the same spot twice. The consequence is that you will have some blank spots, but thankfully, it's only visual. Speaking of visual, the graphics of this game are pretty good. I hoped so after realizing that my GPU is getting abused by this game. However, the lighting looks ugly, because the blue sparks from the items clash with the environmental light, and they radiate through the ground. Also, because every item that you can pick up has those sparks, the blue light is way overdone, which probably helped in making me feel sick. Anyway, whenever I play games of this quality, I decide to do the most reasonable thing and try to clip out of bounds. I'm proud to announce that you can do so in the kitchen, when you walk through the door and hug the wall to the right. The game doesn't even fight your desire (or misfortune) to fall into the void. It's so easy that it might happen to you by accident (which it did for me the second time). If I know Hede for something, it's for their sense of humour when it comes to setting prices and their unfinished-feeling, asset-flippy games. Neither is this worth 1€ for the bundle, nor is it worth 10€ for the discounted standalone game, nor is it worth 100€ for the undiscounted price. I want to say that this may be money laundering, but Occam's razor tells me that it's merely to lure people in who think they are getting a huge discount. Surely, this heavily unpolished game is not even close to being worth money. If I wanted to clean up a mess, I can do that in my room for free.

Trash

Unity asset flip. Pick up object, place where it goes, that's if the object doesn't fall under the map when you pick it up. Walls are clippable by walking through them.

veel te flashy en voor mij geen deftige controls

Interesting concept but poorly executed and buggy, especially in the handling of the items. User-defined tags are totally wrong (this isn't a shooter, platformer or FPS), and the price tag, like everything from these folks, is ridiculous even at 99% discount. I would pass up on all their games until they get their act together (games that work AND a reasonable price.)

Ya había jugado otros antes, solo porque tenía ganas pero este la verdad esta tan mal optimizado que se tilda todo, la cámara da tirones y te acomoda piezas donde no tienen que ir pero te las cuenta como bien igual, no fue una experiencia agradable y no me relaje nada, simplemente me estreso más de la desesperación de que no se movía como quería. Una porquería.

This is like a horrible tech demo and is glitchy.

195€...trash game

单纯喜加一，无聊的要死，毫无可玩性，鉴定为垃圾
