Assemble with Care

在维修物语的游戏评价里看见这个游戏的，都说这个游戏比维修物语的交互做的好，真是被骗了，这游戏就是插画故事，故事讲完了象征性的组装个件。不晓得是怎么有脸打着纪念碑谷团队的招牌来营销的。

I wanted to like this game, really. The art looked really nice and the voiceovers and music sound spectacular. However, that's not enough to make a game good, especially if the gameplay itself is the issue. As soon as you boot up the game, you're met with really loud audio, with no way to lower the settings until you finish the mini tutorial they have, if you can even call it that. The game also provides no real way of teaching you the controls, and just expects you to fiddle around with it enough to get the feel of it. Which isn't any better, considering that everything I attempt to do just resulted in putting whatever I was currently holding back into where it was originally placed. The game is narrative-driven, which isn't a bad thing on its own. But it feels almost as if the gameplay was an afterthought for the project overall. The gameplay portions are extremely short, and the narrative portions aren't even presented as cut scenes, just a bunch of words with voiceovers in a pseudo PowerPoint presentation. It doesn't even auto-forward once the voiceover is done being read, you'd have to click on the next button to proceed. Overall, this game feels like a mobile game that's been ported to PC. The controls definitely feel like they would favor touch controls better than a mouse and keyboard. Not to mention how the tools that you use to fix the items you're working on return to its original place after you use it once, despite needing to unscrew 5 other screws, for example. Its goal was to provide a cozy and relaxing experience, but I just ended up being more frustrated than anything. If you'd enjoy this sort of gameplay, by all means, it's still a somewhat nice experience. But I just personally don't think that the amount of effort is worth all the frustration I've experienced just trying the game out for a few minutes.
