Abrix 2 - Diamond version

[h1]Bottom line.[/h1] They took a PC game and replaced it with a mobile game. [h1]Limited lives with regen waiting.[/h1] Nuff said. I got to level 30 out of the advertised 170+ levels and I CANNOT imagine the amount of real life time waiting for lives just to actually enjoy progressing in Abrix. Especially as levels get trickier and you have more fails. This was the worst idea ever. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1766640627 [h1]Buy some Lollipops. Or not.[/h1] Buy lollipops. Error: The URL for this request is not valid for this title. The correct API endpoint is (url goes here). This shouldn't be part of a PC game on Steam. [strike]You do start out (or at least I did) with 1000 or so, so that's pretty sweet. [/strike] Update note: Just read with this revamp of Abrix there are different packages. I'll copy/paste. [list][*]We also prepared special packages. Some of them are created from older versions of game and available for their owners:[*]$1.99 Brown package 300 lollipops and 2 boosters of every type - Was Abrix for Kids. [*]$4.99 Silver package 800 lollipops and 3 boosters of every type - was Adventures of Abrix. [*]$9.99 Gold package 1700 lollipops and 4 boosters of every type[/list] https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1766653671 [h1]Tutorial-smorial[/h1] Zero information in game. Cool i can pick a random booster. Oh wait, what do these even mean?? Hmm 2 look like gift boxes, that's not helpful, guess it'll be a real surprise! Then I keep failing to 3 star levels and i realize im not exactly sure what requirements need to be met. I see [b]Steps penalty: -174 (Steps: 87)[/b] and assume this might be it but didn't catch any explanation anywhere. Try with less steps to the exit, try with more steps, no clue which way is progress. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I also forgot why I was collecting the Cookies :x I remember there was a tip at the top of the screen when I started one of the levels, but I don't remember which one. Not to mention, I would have to waste a life to see it again anyway. (◔_◔) https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1766661575 [h1]Hey don't forget to create an account!![/h1] I swear after the first 10 minutes after every single game the screen to create an account pops up to either create it or log in. Why so pushy? Even if you do create an account, you STILL see this page after a game. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1766746319 [h1]P.S. We deleted your old achievements & gave you new ones to obtain![/h1] It's nice to see a developer wanting to improve, unfortunately i took it as a slap in the face since the hours spent obtaining the previous achievements were thrown in the trash and replaced with new ones. Which isn't the most horrible thing in the world but feels like a hidden agenda to push you towards buying Lollipops with the new limited lives and waiting for them to regenerate.

I would love to ask devs what the ****. It used to be a not bad puzzler with crappy movement, but it had to be at least a bit interesting if my Steam counter shows 5 hours. Now it is a crap. There is nothing left from the previous version - except the fact that the main character is a robot. Earlier the game looked like a bad retro, and now it looks like sweet flood. The robot moves extremely slowly now and, what's worse, it seems that it has the same levels as a game that used to be called "Abrix for kids". Achievements were reset and the new ones are broken, so it is enough to make a step to achieve 1000 steps, move a block one to get a 1000 moved blocks achievement and same with destroying blocks. I think it is even better this way. No one has to play it more than few minutes. It is sad what happened with Abrix. Avoid it.

Game was remade and old achievements deleted. Dont buy any games from this developer ever again.

Concept sympathique à la Chip’s Challenge (pour les connaisseurs) ou Sokoban, le jeu introduit beaucoup (trop) d’éléments qui viennent pimenter le principe. On passe du puzzler classique à la prise de tête très rapidement, sur fond sonore répétitif désagréable, le tout servi dans un décor austère qui rappelle les grandes heures de DOS. Je précise que l’ensemble est en course contre la montre qui ne laisse pas la place à la réflexion sereine. Annuler son dernier mouvement loupé (et il y en aura compte-tenu des contrôles approximatifs) ne peut se faire qu’à l’aide d’un bonus dédié. Idem pour la sauvegarde de votre position dans une salle. La vue isométrique complique un peu plus la tâche, de même pour les mouvements glissants de notre robot. C’est long. C’est chiant. C’est moche. L’auteur en a fait une saga qui ne fait que torturer le concept à vous en dégoûter définitivement. Pas d’histoire, pas de tutoriel ludique, pas de Français disponible, pas de support manette sur tous les titres de la trilogie, des DLCs scandaleux, et des succès de grind qui rallongent artificiellement la durée de vie. Ce n’est pas les trading cards, le workshop, ou la sauvegarde cloud qui viendront sauver Abrix. Un beau gâchis qui a le culot de se vendre 10 euros sans DLC (25 euros pour l’ensemble de la saga incluant les DLCs).

同系列的游戏都不知道有多少了，玩法还千篇一律。 成就看要求还蛮高的，结果一启动直接全成就了？？？

overall good for in between.

"Abrix 2 - Diamond version" is a mobile-app like grid puzzle/pathing game where you must move a low quality toy robot through a grid of blocks. Different blocks do different things so you must move carefully to ensure you choose the correct path through the correct blocks... seems simple enough but there's no guide or tooltips to show you what each kind of block does, and there's also no incentive to actually play the game because it's garbage. EJRGames have a known history of trying to scam people into paying them money for someone else's work, through this account or through closely linked/alt accounts. One example of EJRGames doing this is [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1057730]VRAdventure[/url], which is really the "[url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/environments/dungeons/polygon-dungeons-low-poly-3d-art-by-synty-102677]POLYGON Dungeons - Low Poly 3D Art by Synty[/url]" asset, written by the actual developers, Synty Games. When EJRGames took this asset from Synty Studios, they didn't credit them and tried to pass off Synty's work as their own, to mislead gamers for profit. Taking this shovelware seriously as if it was a genuine attempt to make a game, it doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. There's no options to change the resolution for the game or customise the graphics settings. There's no way for gamers to ensure this is running at the native resolution of their displays... there's no guarantee this game will look right on any PC as a result of this hamfisted design decision. There's no way for gamers to try improve the low quality graphics. In fact, the developer decided the native resolution of my monitor was mobile phone 9:16 aspect ratio, and because there's no graphics settings, there's no way to correct this insulting misjudgement on the part of the failed developer. The game features simple, cartoony 2D graphics, of the type you normally expect to see in low effort mobile apps. 3D graphics programming does require a degree of skill and competence and unfortunately not all developers have the budget or talent to deliver this, despite 3D graphics cards hitting the mainstream in the 1990's. Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game, having the graphics phoned in like this isn't going to result in a high quality, visually impressive game that PC gamers are used to seeing. The controls can't be customised, which will be an annoyance for many, but it can also render the game unplayable for differently-abled gamers. This looks and feels like a mobile app, but it doesn't seem to have made it to the app stores. It's unclear why this was put on Steam instead of the app stores it seems to have been designed for. Maybe it was removed, maybe it was rejected by Apple and Google (they do have more rigorous quality standards than Valve does for Steam, after all). Regardless, for all intents and purposes "Abrix 2 - Diamond version" might as well be a mobile app, it has the same limitations and dumbed down qualities. It's impossible to recommend such a game to PC gamers. We don't spend all this money building gaming rigs so we can pretend they're iPhones and play games that might as well be mobile apps. These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game. You don't have to take my word about how bad the game is, we can measure the interest in a game by how much people bothered to play it. "Abrix 2 - Diamond version" has achievements, and they show us a very clear picture that the game absolutely failed to capture any interest from gamers. The most commonly and easily attained achievement is for completing the simple tutorial level, but only around 4 percent of players bothered to get that far before uninstalling the game. That's a tiny, tiny proportion of gamers who even bothered with this. Ouch. "Abrix 2 - Diamond version" is relatively cheap at $2 USD, but it's not worth it. Given the defects and quality issues with the game, coupled with the unrealistic price and the unethical nature of the asset flipping developer, this is impossible to recommend. [b][quote]Warning: Microtransaction Infested Game[/quote][/b]This game is infested with a mobile app like cash shop for unlocking in-game currency and features. Whether these are purely cosmetic or they alter your gaming experience significantly, this gamer gouging practice is unethical and insulting to gamers, especially when applied to such a low quality shovelware game. Gamers should be cautious and consider avoiding this game for that reason alone.
