A Virus Named TOM

Es un juego de puzzles, que requiere de habilidad y rapidez para resolverlos con el movimiento del personaje. En los últimos niveles esto se ve muchísimo más acentuado y el tener que descubrir como resolver los puzzles a prueba y error evitando que no te maten porque requiere de mucha habilidad de movimiento, crea situaciones bastante frustrántes donde te atascas y no consigues ver donde está el patrón para resolver el puzzle. No es un juego malo, ni muchísimo menos, creo que lo que hace, lo hace bien, pero para mi no es mi clase de juego y no creo que sea un juego para todo el mundo.

A nice short puzzle game.

Das Stressigste Puzzlespiel das ich je gespielt hab ... und damit leider nicht so ganz mein Ding. Die Story und Charaktere scheinen witzig aber ich komme mit der Kombination aus Puzzle und Geschicklichkeitsspiel nicht klar. An beiden Genres hab ich Spass, aber in der Kombination funktioniert das für mich nicht. Ich will mich entweder aufs Lösen von Puzzles konzentrieren oder auf Geschicklichkeit. Aber ein, eigentlich recht simples, Puzzle zu lösen während ich permanent Gegnern ausweichen muss macht mir wenig Spass. Was mich dann bewogen hat das Spiel zu beenden war, als grosse Teile des Puzzles nicht mal mehr sichtbar waren und ich ein unsichtbares Puzzle lösen soll während ich hektisch zwischen den Gegnern herum hetze.

I want to like this game. I really do. Other people say the different mechanics clash, and they do, but that wouldn't be impossible to work with - if the controls were tight enough. They're not. They're nowhere near tight enough. There's a half a second, maybe even just a 2ms lag, between what you want to do, and what happens on screen. That's enough to end a run on any puzzle. And when you have to restart from the beginning each time, can't take your time because your life is constantly draining, can't make a single mistake, but what you tell your little friend to do, it doesn't? Sorry. I can't recommend this. It was fun, and then it was frustrating, and then the skips were limited - Couldn't just bypass the ones that were BS. Sorry devs.

Virus Named TOM has got nothing on Pipe Mania. The first few levels where it is just pipes are quite fun but later ones with antivirus ticks not so much. Levels become so hectic toward the end of the game that the clunky controls become the main hindrance. All in all, way too stressful with no sense of reward and I would much rather just lay some pipes in peace.
