Girl Genius: Adventures In Castle Heterodyne

不細工ヒロインのアクションアドベンチャーで、狭い場所は小さなロボットとキャラ交代して進むパズル要素有り。実際のゲーム内ではストアに描かれているイラストほどブスではないのが救いではあるが、主人公を美人にしていれば今より売り上げは伸びていたと思う。自分もこれがバンドルに入っていなければ絶対買う気にはならなかった。 XUnity.AutoTranslator-ReiPatcheで日本語に自動翻訳が可能。キャラの台詞はキーかボタンを押すまで消えないので翻訳しやすいのですが、Google翻訳だと意味不明になる事が多いです。

Good puzzles. and keeps the flavor of the comic

Combat is pretty simple, but the puzzles more than make up for it.

I love this game and I think you will to. The level design is top notch and the puzzles are challenging but fun.

lovingly made zelda style game that is escpecially rewarding for all fans of the webcomic

I highly recommend this game if you are even slightly a fan of Girl Genius. It has the same humor and ingenuity of the original, the same excellent lore drops and background gags, wrapped up in a polygon package that makes me nostalgic for the playstation games of my childhood. It has enough changes to the storyline that it doesn't feel like a particularly interactive visual novel, but it might feel a bit rushed for someone unfamiliar with the comics. There are some excellent accessibility features (like the ability to skip that dingbot minigame, which is a relief if you're bad at timing puzzles like me), and plenty of collectibles/upgrades.

Fun romp through the Girl Genius universe. Really captures the spirit of the comic.

I've read the comics since they were new and I was young. I only bought the game recently. It's lots of fun, very challenging puzzles... I had to look up hints to get past some of them. It's also very challenging to beat the boss fights. I'm still not sure where all the little side quest things are hidden, but it's such an aesthetically pleasing game I'll probably wander around and find them too, maybe with some hints...

All fine until the introduction of the vents and propeller, which created an essentially unsolvable jumping puzzle. 30 tries later I simply had to give up because I was unable to make it past this part. There's simply too little leeway between total failure and success, and insufficient ability to preserve progress.

Tricky puzzles, dizzying mazes, and delightful references to the comic storyline. What's not to love? The controls can be a bit finicky, but take a step back or slightly to the left and you'll figure it out.
