Cyrano

小品游戏，还算有意思，就是架打不过

https://youtu.be/pj4WghkcKYM Great setup that's strangled by the combat balance being very misaligned with the rest of the game style and flow.

I bought this game to support the developers, as I really enjoyed their previous title, Kind Words. Unfortunately, I have to say that this game didn’t quite convince me. The idea is intuitive and the core concepts are promising, but the gameplay mechanics feel underdeveloped. I was also confused by the fact that I kept dying yet was still able to continue all the way to the end. As a result, the ending doesn’t feel truly earned. It’s a shame

I've seen people complain about the combat balance, and they're right, but its pretty easy to get around. It shouldn't have to be, that is a glaring flaw, but it is. You just need at least a pair for your first letter writing segment to get you enough XP to get into an actual flow of advancement. From there, I was able to win every fight pretty handily, even spending an action to steal a card most fights, and only had to burn a card on the big "throw a card" attack like, twice. My characters didn't even go down. As for the game itself- I wasn't actually familiar with the Cyrano story (and would like to see a staging of it now), but this told the tale in charming style. The creative writing aspect of it was fun, though a little luck based, forcing you to get the right cards. This is only really a problem early on, but I did have to fully reset my game once as not getting xp from my first poem started a doom spiral of lost fights which meant no more cards which meant no more xp- it was less than `15 minutes of play before it was clearly in need of a reset, but it would be nice if there were safeguards against that, perhaps some cards automatically distributed if you are below a certain level threshold at each poem? It's a very cheap game, and if you don't mind needing to potentially reset the first 5 minutes (a thing I only had to do once), to get going, its worth it if you want to experience a compact cyrano. I really liked the art, the prompts were quite evocative and flexible and I had a good time overall. If you aren't sold on this by the description however, I wouldn't blame you for passing on this one.

一款具有回合制戰鬥的視覺小說，整體流程為半小時左右。 配樂與美術的呈現都非常優秀，文本的詩情畫意更是增添了一筆昇華。 唯獨回合制戰鬥設計得有點離譜，而且等級上升的意義不知道在哪。 總之，我閱讀完了一則好故事。

这张纸，是我的声音ce papier, c'est ma voix 这墨水，是我的血液cette encre, c'est mon sang 这封信，是我。cette lettre , c'est moi. 而如果亲吻能够以文字寄达，女士Et que si les baisers s'envoyaient par             écrit,Madame 那么就请您以双唇，来读我的信吧。vous liriez ma lettre avec les lèvres.

十五分钟就能走完的流程，相较于原作的剧本甚至还删了不少东西，最后也没能让我看到西哈诺说出那句“我帽子上的白色羽毛！”，即便是考虑到这玩意打折只有十块不到依旧略显不值……一想到七成读过大鼻子情圣的人都是素晴日引去的就更显难绷了……
