Captain Sabertooth and the Magic Diamond

消磨时间的话玩玩还不错 游戏很便宜 量还不小

If someone tells me that former DreamWorks-employees were involved, then I'd buy that immediately. Because it looks and plays like a DreamWorks-movie with beautiful graphics and animations, terrific voice actors (The titular captain Sabertooth being my favourite), and cutscenes that might as well be from a trailer for an unreleased movie. If someone would also tell me that lots of the budget went into those cutscenes, then I would immediately believe that too, because some aspects of the game seem to have suffered as a result, but one thing at a time. This sells itself as a Metroidvania for children. Gameplay is insofar simple with a low difficulty - except for the underwater-sections which are surprisingly hard due to enemy spam you can't fight against -, a nonsensical plot with zero logic and dumb characters (Stop treating children like they are too stupid to follow deeper stories, dammit!), with a handful minigames thrown in like wave defence with a cannon and pinball; Pinball being so easy, you have to deliberately lose to end it, because it's literally impossible to fail. I'm not kidding. And whoever thought it to be a good idea to limit exploration by having to purchase treasure maps first needs to walk the plank. No, really: you'll come across spots where you would be rewarded with upgrades, but you can't get those until you buy the corresponding treasure map. Just... why? Some sort of misguided attempt to not overwhelm children? Why would you do this? Apart from that, it's pretty much standard: explore the levels, get new gear that allows you to explore further, get upgrades for health, weapons, and ammunition, until you defeat the final boss. Don't get me wrong, lots of love and effort has went into the game, and if you want to introduce your children to Metroidvanias, then this is perfect. If you seek a challenge and more content, however, then this isn't it. But then you probably aren't the target demographic. It's only ten bucks though, so you still should try this out!
