Hororová adventura od malého nezávislého studia Robot Invader. Hra je primárně určena pro virtuální realitu, ale lze ji hrát i klasicky na monitoru s klávesnicí a myší... či spíše jen myší. :) Ovládání je totiž řešeno tak nějak postaru, jako u starých 3D adventur po skocích. Nepohybujete se volně, ale kliknete do určitého směru, postava pár kroků popojde, pak kliknete do dalšího směru, postava zase popojde pár kroků tím směrem. Je to trochu zastaralé a nepohodlné, ale dá se na to zvyknout. Levou ruku vůbec nepoužíváte, tak si můžete v klidu dávat kafe, nebo chroupat brambůrky. ;) Příběh se má tak, že je rok 1965, jste reportérka Patricia Gable a jdete do jednoho opuštěného domu někde v kansaských polích vyšetřit záhadnou smrt podivného vědce. Vědec, pracující na podivných tajemných výzkumech, týkajících se lidské mysli, během léta umrznul - podivné, že? :) Příběh vám vypráví tuny a tuny papírů, válejících se všude kolem. Stránky denníčku, dokumenty, atd... Příběh je opravdu hodně propracovaný a povedený. Na závěr vás čeká celkem 5 konců, podle toho, koho určíte za vraha a co s ním pak uděláte. Hra se ukládá sama jen při ukončení. Po dohrání vás tlačítko "Continue" hodí před závěrečné rozhodnutí, takže se můžete libovolně podívat na všechny konce. Hra má cca 3,5 hodiny, ale návod jen 40 minut, ale za tuhle dobu to dohraje je ten, kdo už hru zná a ví, co má kde dělat. Plusy: Skvělá hororová atmosféra v opuštěném domě. Venku prší, ozývají se podivné zvuky a občas je i nějaká lekačka. V domě totiž jaksi nejste sami. :) Propracovaný příběh. Mínusy: Grafika (Unity engine) je docela mdlá a nedetailní. Asi úlitba virtuální realitě - aby se to hýbalo. Ve hře není vůbec žádné grafické a zvukové nastavení. Uvítal bych možnost snížit alespoň hlasitost hudby. Systém pohybu pomocí klikání myší je celkem nepohodlný, ale dá se na něj zvyknout. V jednom místě je technický bug, kvůli kterému nelze pokračovat dál (po vlezení do tmavého sklepa). Naštěstí se stačí vrátit do hlavního menu a dát pokračovat. Na hru bohužel není čeština a porozumět dokumentům, které vytváří příběh, je ke hraní nutné, takže jestli neumíte anglicky, tak máte smůlu. Hra by si češtinu rozhodně zasloužila. Doporučuji alespoň český letsplay půvabné české youtuberky MsRepulsive, která dokumenty během hraní překládá. :)
画面は四角の小さめで、やりにくかったのですが、返金されなかったのでこのやろーやってやるぜっとなり頑張ってやりました。結果、なんとかクリアしました実績も全部取れたので満足です。このゲームは、たまに敵に遭遇しますが間違った選択をすると死亡します。正しい選択をすると先に進めるので3~4くらいの選択がありますが全部試すのも良いでしょう。ここからネタバレになりますが、あとCのエンディングはいったん消すか最初から鍵を取って出口を何度もクリックすると取れます。あとはラストを何度も出来るので実績は全て取れるようになってます。英語は、マイクロソフトのウィンドウズ翻訳アプリを使うと良いでしょう
If ever a game was deserving of the word "Meh". Seriously! And for its full price, it's not worth it in my opinion. Buy it when it's on super sale. Like a dollar or less.
Nice little gem. Maybe it's a bit old, especially with that strange control scheme (don't forget to press stick to activate your controllers), but it's great in VR. Story was interesting enough to get all endings and few jumpscares added spice to the atmosphere
Really love this game. I've played it quite a few times at this point, my most recent run being in preparation for playing Dead Secret Circle at last. I love the story, the dialogue, the characterization and development. I think the only thing I have to complain about is just the issue with the safe. I know plenty of other people have already talked about it, already mentioned how annoying and genuinely gamebreaking it is, but I'm adding my voice to that. I think if I were working with a star-based system, 1 to 5 stars, I'd have to take away a star for that alone. You might think well, you've played this game so many times, surely you don't mess up and bug the safe and then have to close the game and reopen it...right? :) Well you see lmao... The thing is... With that said, I still do love this game and that is my one and only complaint, so... 4 stars! I've never grown bored or tired of playing it, and that makes me very excited and hopeful for my experience with DSC! Just...please...no safes...or if there is a safe, please let it not have inherited that infernal bug...
Point and Click game in VR...? honestly i had my doubts but color me impressed! this game was pretty damn entertaining! How does the game play? well you are on a fixed location and you can point and click stuff around you, sometimes moving it, maybe finding stuff, if you need to move to another room or another part of the room you select it and walk there automatically. In the game, you are a journalist trying to get a scoop on a story, and break into a house to get information... there is some exploring and item collecting as well as some stuff you can read a bit to get more backstory. There are a couple of "scary" scenes where you have to run away from a masked guy that doesnt want you snooping around. While the game is not a horror game, it has this tension that you are in a place you know you shouldnt be in. There are a bunch of puzzles that need you to take close attention to the environment. Id rate them from easy to medium difficulty never getting frustrating (unless you arent paying attention) The story is pretty interesting and i kept reading all i found to learn more. Which is good because at the end there are some questions you get asked about the story and (my guess) you have to answer correctly to get the good ending. In the end the whole experience is well designed and once you accept its limitations, i feel the game uses it to its advantage so its really hard to get lost doing something else instead of "going forward" i liked how the experience was designed. Graphics look fine, obviously older but work well. Performance was excellent allaround. Recommended for anyone wanting to play a solid mystery puzzle exploration game with a "different" from the usual main mechanics (that being point and click. Really! dont dismiss it, it really was a great experience).
Nice and scarry, but not too much. A decent game to play when it gets dark.
Not a bad game, just kinda meh. It has some nice spooks, but it's very linear and the mystery itself is a bit lacking. There are just two of the suspects who are actually suspect. And its use of fantastical elements feels a bit tacked on and inconsistent. There is an interesting story there and personality to the game, so its frustrating to see it fall short of actually being interesting.
J'ai joué ce jeu sans la VR et le déplacement est un peu étrange au début, puis on s'habitue. Graphiquement c'est pas mal du tout et j'ai adoré les énigmes. Ce n'est pas un jeu qui fait vraiment peur mais on est vraiment un enquêteur qui doit découvrir la vérité. On s'est bien amusé. Voici notre gameplay https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrEqZ-g-ohI
A pretty alright little horror game. If you can get it cheap then I think you'll have a fine 3 or so hours. The main selling points are the puzzles and the mystery to solve. I think fans of either will find themselves having a good time even if it isn't groundbreaking stuff here. The horror is... simple. I've seen worse. The overall style is a little too mismatched to work in my opinion. There's too many directions the game wanted to go and I don't think they merged very effectively. The setting clashes with the mythos and the more supernatural elements felt very disconnected. I'd like to see this team try something like this again but with a more cohesive direction. It's also pretty clearly made more for VR. I had a fine time on desktop, (it's not like other VR games that are broken without a headset) but I think it would have been much more effective in VR.
