自主构建地牢房间、路线,策略性的选择奖励、挑战,不能否认这一核心机制十分新颖而有趣 但是作为一款动作肉鸽,我的战斗体验并不有趣 1.无用、无趣的遗物,两个小时的游玩中,未碰见有趣的机制类遗物或者机制和数值类遗物带来的提升都非常小,以至于很难感受到奖励的正向反馈 2.战斗全靠基础动作模组及玩家的技术强撑,且相较孱弱的遗物,精英敌人和boss的血量都挺厚的,难度并不低 整体体验下来,并不像在玩肉鸽,而是在玩一款难度不低的横版动作(boss战挺有趣,但死亡后又得无趣且耗时的经过道中环节令人烦躁) 2小时的游戏时间 还有大量的关卡和遗物未解锁 作出的评价可能会有失偏颇 但实在没有动力再继续坐牢了
Ce rogue like est bien
Je me faisais un plaisir de passer à un autre Rogue qu'Isaac (je suis sur ma troisième sauvegarde) et bien qu'intriguant, Cryptical Path présente quelques défauts que je trouve rédhibitoire, avec le temps. Parfois l'action devient confuse et le personnage se prend un coup que l'on était sûr d'esquiver. La maniabilité semble faillir dans les pires moments. Le rythme d'avancement est lent, surtout au début. Il arrive trop souvent qu'à l'issue d'une run, on n'ait pas suffisamment de ressources pour débloquer un talent. Ça donne l'impression de piétiner, surtout que pas mal de ces talents ne changent pas radicalement le gameplay... Est-ce vraiment nécessaire que le doppelganger soit si toxique, notamment sur l'écran de game over? Vraiment pas fan de ça et ça n'apporte strictement rien, je trouve. De manière générale, l'écriture mériterait un petit bonus... l'univers est intéressant mais rien dans les dialogues ne se démarque de ce point de vue, c'est assez plan-plan, je trouve. Ceci étant dit, ces défauts peuvent éventuellement apparaitre comme moins handicapants pour certain·e·s que pour moi, et je relancerai tout de même le jeu de temps à autre à l'avenir mais, en ce qui me concerne, il ne deviendra pas autre chose qu'un rogue décent que l'on relance de temps à autre pour changer... et c'est déjà très bien comme ça !
jogo tá bom mas com uns bug muito chato, uma vez perdi meus upgrades 2 vezes e as salas extras pra construir sumiram não sei se concertaram mas o que eu digo é? Jogo é bonito e a gameplay é interessante (principalmente a parte de tu construir o seu caminho) mas ainda sim é bugado.
J'accroche pas, c'est mou c'est lent, 4h de jeu tjrs la même arme ou sort ou façon de se battre (spam de la touche d'attaque), les salles se ressemblent, le bestaire est pauvre, les boss sont des sacs à pv le combat est bcp trop long. Je m'ennuie. J'arrête.
I enjoyed the first few runs, but things started falling flat after defeating the first boss. Item variety is limited, with many of them being flat stat buffs or otherwise not being especially interesting or impactful, while a few are game-changers that are a total crapshoot to get (most notably the ones that make your attack hover in place and hit things nearby while you can just dodge). Enemy variety is also limited, combat gets repetitive, your dodge could be a lot more useful, and things get a bit unreasonable with the the enemy upgrades after being the first boss (who isn't much better, as good luck attacking them without getting hit unless you have one of the aforementioned sentry gun items). And even the mapbuilding that's the game's unique gimmick isn't that interesting; it just periodically interrupts fighting with putting an enemy cell (or whatever else you may need) wherever leads to the next generated group of cells. Doesn't seem to be as deep as intended.
I was pretty enthusiastic about this game for the first couple of runs. However, I'm rapidly fatiguing of runs that feel the same every time. Here are some pros and cons in no particular order: - The map building mechanic is neat. The concept of taking on curses as a risk to gain additional rewards is engaging. But ultimately, it feels like busy work to have to stop every few rooms and add new rooms to bridge gaps. I think I'd prefer if you built out the dungeon at the start and then edited minimally during the run to prevent interrupting the action. - The graphics are pleasant to look at and the game performs well (mostly) on the Steam Deck. - Combat mostly feels good. Maybe not quite as tight as I'd like but mostly good. The one piece that feels a little frustrating is the iframes on the dodge. Felt like I was getting inconsistent results when needing to dodge specific attacks (like first boss charge attack). - Variety is VERY low. They have dozens of items but most of them are small raw stat buffs. Gaining +10% weapon damage is super boring but also one of the best upgrades you can hope for. There's only one weapon and very few talents meaningfully change how you interact with the game. - Metaprogression is pretty dull. Now breakables have coins in them. Start with +2 control (not even enough to build the smallest room). Chests have more money. It's just not interesting. If this were early access, I'd say they were off to a good start. For a finished game with no road map, it feels pretty rough.
===2025-0419 還行,可玩可略,爽度不夠。節奏偏慢,會覺得有點無聊。適合時間很多的玩家。

Its a somewhat unique concept for the genre, I'll give it that. It falls short in just about everything else. There is not enough variation to keep the gameplay loop engaging and I found the game fizzled out quickly. They should have taken a cue from games like Spiritfall and incorporated different weapons at minimum. Each act ends in the same boss every run. The artifacts found are dull, unexciting and lack synergy. The talent tree is 1-dimensional and predictable. I found the value would have been more appropriate at 10-15$ and could probably be relegated to a mobile game.
