CHESS KNIGHTS: VIKING LANDS に引き続いて購入。 前作と比較して、新たに「ワープする床」や、「隠れられる茂み」、「隠しステージ」などが追加され、ずいぶん進化しました。 コマのトリッキーな動きや、自分は相手を攻撃できず、相手の屋敷に気づかれずに忍び込むステルス的な要素など、どう考えてもバイキング(前作)より忍者(今作)のほうが、ゲームのテーマに合っていると思います。 前作とは趣の異なる和風の音楽も非常に素晴らしく、やはり当シリーズは音楽や環境音が素晴らしく良く出来ていると思います。 ただし、桜の木とか日本庭園は良いとして、それ以外は「外人の考えた日本」になってしまっていて、建物や部屋の調度品などは、明確に「中国のどこか」としか言えないようなステージも多く、部屋にでっかい「銅鑼」が置いてあるなど、こういった部分は大変残念です。 ゲーム内容は、ワープゾーンなどを除けばゲーム内容は前作と全く同じで、慣れればすいすい解けますが、慣れるまでがしんどいかも知れません。 数手先までの動き方を読んで、論理的に順序良く考えると解法が見えてくる、その感覚が病みつきになる知的パズルです。
Satranç taşlarının hareketlerini ninja temasıyla birleştiren, ilginç bir bulmaca oyunu. Oyunda sadece siyah atları yönetiyoruz ve haritalarda L şeklinde ilerleyerek çıkışa varmaya çalışıyoruz. Diğer taşlarsa (fil, kale, vezir vs) samurayları canlandırıyorlar ve yerimizi tespit ettikleri anda taşımızı yiyorlar. Bütün atlarımızı kaybettiğimiz zaman bölüme baştan başlamak zorunda kalıyoruz. Bütün taşlar satranç kurallarına uygun şekilde hareket ediyor. Tıpkı satrançta olduğu gibi bazen galip gelebilmek için bazı taşlarımızı feda etmemiz gerekebiliyor. Bulmacalar ilk başta kolay başlayıp giderek zorlaşıyor. Toplamda 50 bölüm bulunuyor. Bunların arasında 10 tane de gizli bölüm var. Oyunun sevmediğim kısmı atımızla diğer taşları yiyememek oldu. Düşman taşları hiçbir şekilde alamıyoruz. Tek yapabildiğimiz kaçmak. Tamam, samurayların zırhı sağlam olur falan da biz de ninjayız sonuçta. En azından piyonları falan alabilseymişiz iyi olurmuş. Bulmacalara da çeşitlilik gelirmiş hem. Bir de bonus bölümlerinde hangi taşın ne olduğunu anlamak biraz zor olabiliyor. Satrancı seviyorsanız ve kafanızı çalıştırmanı gereken bulmacalardan hoşlanıyorsanız indirim zamanında 2-3 liraya düşen bu yapıma bir şans verebilirsiniz. 6,5/10 [quote]Daha fazla incelememe göz atmak isterseniz Steam Küratör sayfamı ziyaret edebilirsiniz: [b][url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/39265984/]Pikselatör[/url][/b][/quote]
I really like this lil gem. It somehow reminds me of Zapper for Gamecube, a game i liked alot too.. Its relaxing, keeps u entertained and occupied for a long time. I especially love how its chess pieces but puzzle like, true to how the chess pieces would move in chess. Plus the extra bonus of assassination, who doesnt like some good old fashioned killing to really make u get into this way deeper. The only down side in this game is that u end up in a realm, where u risk missing out on items for a good long while, 5 or so for me, because just getting to the end area wasnt enough, u actually have to land on the artifact to claim it, not just the end area of that map.The game is missing that information, so its learn by doing, this is good and bad. Overall i really love this game. Such a nice time waster, u can just walk away from it n come back, no penalties for that either, so its good for those busy days, rushing away n to pc.
i love the theme in this. it wasnt too hard. suitable for achi-hunters too.
Really enjoyable and relaxing puzzle game can see myself spending a lot more time with it. Definitely recommended for chess lovers. For the price this is an absolute steal, gets quite challenging but retains the fun factor with clever level design and different elements. Pick up and put down puzzler that'll make you smile.
そこそこやりました。 日本をイメージしたかなり雰囲気がとても良いパズルゲームです。音楽の雰囲気や、マップ、駒、すべてにおいて和を感じます。 基本自分が操る駒はチェスのナイトに当たる駒で、これを敵の駒に取られないようにゴールまで辿り着くというゲームになっています。敵の駒もチェスの駒の動きをしてくるので、チェスの駒の動きを知っている方の方が入りやすいでしょう。 ただしチェスとはほとんど関係ない、ほぼオリジナルのパズルゲームです(やってみればわかります) 難易度はちょっと高め。進むにつれてワープだったり草むらに隠れたりという要素が加わり、味方の駒も増えたりと頭を悩ませる。 自分は少しずつ進めていますが、途中詰んで進めなくなってしまいました。いつかクリアしたいですが、ほんとに難しいです。もしかしたら下手な人にはちょっと厳しい難易度かもしれません。 ただセール価格ならかなり安くなるので間違いなく買いだと思います。
Really great minimalist puzzle game. The recent update tripled the content of an already great game, definitely worth the price here. Knights are my least favorite chess piece, but playing them as a ninja may have changed my view of them. The difficulty scales wonderfully right up until the last level which is very very hard, but just enough to where you feel accomplished when you beat it. The only negative I have here is you can't pan the camera, only zoom and rotate. Other than that this is a standout of the minimalist puzzle genre. Edit: The developer has fixed some bugs and given the community a much-needed hint about the secret achievement, so props to him as well!
I did really enjoy it! And as somebody else already said in his/her review: I actually felt kind of sneaky at times :D
So far, so good! Too short lived at the moment, but it was fun! Most of the levels are not that difficult at the beginning. I'd say, from level 19 onward it started to get actually challenging. I'd love at least one or two stages with levels like that. You've got the scaffolding right, now you just gotta focus on the puzzles.
