Dark Tales from México: Prelude. Just a Dream... with The Sack Man

Es una idea genial que puede crecer muchísimo, espero sigan actualizando, metiendo más acertijos y creando más personajes; de momento genial el hombre del costal ;)

Sin duda una Joya de juego de desarrollo Mexicano basado en Leyendas Mexicanas de Terror bastante creepy muy atmosferico e inmersivo, con puzzles y dificultad muy bien medida, es una obra de arte que sin duda deben de jugar y vivirlo en carne propia!!

While the gameplay itself doesn't feel like it really warrants the pricetag, the game itself is neat and seeing the footage of the effort that they made in hand crafting things (literally) is pretty cool. Did feel a tad unfair at the end, but that could just be me. Some of the puzzles were rather abstract and didn't always feel like they were working correctly, but I managed. I give a very tentative recommendation.

Drawing clear inspiration from one of the scenes in Guillermo Del Toro's Pan's Labyrinth (El Laberinto del Fauno), Mexican studio BitAll Force, did had a good idea here. Unfortunately, the game is riddled with bugs, visual glitch's and moments where it simply refuses to advance. I've stumbled upon many game breaking problems on my playthrough, forcing me to wonder around with no clue of what to do and therefore this had to be edited out from the video with "fade to black transitions". A final session will see you button mash the controller in what it seems a never ending session, nearly causing me a case of arthritis, and a final glitch, that, although unintentional, made me laugh through the entire end, and beyond it. I cannot, in good conscious, advise this game in this state. I've played the game in English, and that made the game more of a comedy than a serious thing, sadly.

Bueno por donde comienzo. Pocos son los juegos, y que digo pocos, quizás sea el único y me atrevo a decirlo que plasmara las leyendas de terror mexicanas en un juego, así es un juego, lo disfrutaras lo amaras y tendrás un flashback que te hará recordar cuando tus abuelitos o padres te contaban aquellas leyendas que poco a poco están quedando en el limbo, juegalo encerio no te arrepentirás.

Far too much exposition dumping right from the start of the story, clunky controls and an overall lack of cohesive storytelling. I appreciated how the folktales were incorporated into some puzzles, as it helped keep their relevance to the story. But the stories all went on for *far* too long and were written (at least in English) with many run-on sentences and a lot of irrelevant talking points. For several pages of lore, I had to skip all the way to the end of the story just to get to the point and find out what I needed to know for the puzzle. There's just way too much info dumping. The controls are, quite frankly, agitating. Why does the candle *immediately* go out if our character runs or jumps? That wouldn't be so irritating if our character didn't walk so painfully slow (and like she has a limp for some reason?) It felt like I was being forced to walk to spread out the run time, unless I wanted to run around in the dark. I didn't face against any legitimate threats during my gameplay either, making this game akin to a walking simulator more than a survival horror. The gameplay was mainly focused on solving relatively simple puzzles (when the instructions were told clearly) and wandering the halls of the labyrinth to turn all the lights on. Overall, the game just felt... off. I think it has potential, if it gets a little more polish and proof-reading, but as the game currently is I can't say I'd recommend this game.

Vente pa acá llorona que si no gritas yo te haré gritar :v Me encanta la estética, no cualquier juego se siente tan tradicional ♥

Muy bueno me gusto mucho. Esperemos tenga más entregas.

Excelente juego, lleno de referencias

simplemente perfecto. dark tales es un titulo que innova demasiado en su gameplay, pues tenemos que revivir las leyendas que aparecen en la historia principal para poder resolver diferentes puzzles y poder avanzar. la verdad, la calidad de los escenarios, el doblaje y las leyendas que escogieron hacen que cada minuto de dark tales se sienta como un autentico juego de terror
