So this is a find the object/craft recipe/"puzzle" game. You can switch out some "puzzles" with a Connect 3 game. I'm not terribly intrigued so far by the story because it just involves trying to find your bratty kid who has been kidnapped. But since it isn't terribly challenging it can be nice to play when I'm really tired and just want to pass the time.
Liked and enjoyed it. Nice visuals. Nice variety of puzzles and challenges.
I liked that there are different difficulties, and you can even make a custom difficyltie. finished is in a few hours of playing. different types of puzzles.
un point and click assez simple mais agréable
So... having played hundreds of the Artifex Mundi games (it's an addiction, help me xD ), I dunno if there is any relationship between this game and studio and them... but it's all somewhat similar, which is great for me! It's also longer than your average Artifex Mundi game, which is ok. The story is somewhat similar to Artifex Mundi titles... a mix of myth, folk tale, magic, past lives, etc... the base is the Indus civlization this time, South Asian mythology. But you are a modern character, a mom who gets involved in a car accident and sees her daughter get kidnapped... an investigative story follows then delving into an entire story about the character past lives and whatnot. Mechanics also resemble Artifex Mundi games mechanics quite a bit... you have hidden object parts with variations between word correspondence, sillouette type games, object parts, and then a bunch of puzzle games. It also has a bonus games that is a continuation to the main story that feels incomplete without it. Collectibles are also there. Recommended!
Love this game so much!!
重覆上架的遊戲 十小時完成遊戲的成就是怎麼計算的無解,STEAM上我只花了三小時。 玩了將近六次決定放棄- -" 時隔好幾個月忘得差不多在回來慢慢嚕就可以把成就破完了。 整體來說劇情還ok 但有些賣慘的地方覺得重覆太多次有點煩…… 之前給差評,基於美術風景及遊玩度,還是改正評吧
was a great game and story to play this one. I even bought both version and played them.
I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing. Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side. With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of you. In fact, I may have played this game for only a day or two. That being said, after doing so, I had a new joy and hope for life. I managed to leave behind the pain and suffering that had been thrust upon me. I could experience the joy and happiness of other people. I relaxed for 5 ♥♥♥♥ minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay. After realizing this, I turned off the game and went back to work. My hand hurt a lot, but I was motivated. I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and became the father I needed to be at that moment, not the weak boy I was behaving like. Today, I am close friends with the mother of my children. We don't fight, argue, or say hurtful things to each other. We are parents and friends. Now I have 3 children. My third child is, wait, ALSO 4 YEARS OLD. The woman I am with was going through a very similar situation at the time of my separation, and we just unexpectedly stumbled into each other's lives. We have been dating for a year and are very happy together. Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today. This silly little game helped me realize that. Thank you.
Achievements only seem to work if you have the collector's edition enabled (see discussions about this), which is really crummy considering they're listed in here. Oh and wait, low and behold even tho I own said collectors edition DLC they still don't normally work. Trying to find work arounds to deal with it even though they've known about it for over a year is nuts. Game itself is ok and functions, but I also had crashes that rolled back my progress which is beyond frustrating.
