Awesome :)
Inspector Waffles Early Days es un juego correcto, más de detective que point&click. El gameplay es recolectar pistas e ir interrogando testigos donde las pistas funcionan como respuesta. Luego al final de cada caso debemos responder unas preguntas sobre el mismo para "resolverlo". Esta parte no tiene mucha ciencia. Hay una especie de side-quest pero si no conseguís ciertos items no se termina habilitando. La historia es básicamente como Waffles conoce a varios de los personajes del juego original. Lo jugué hace un tiempo largo así que no recordaba del todo y tuve que ver un resumen antes. La verdad que no hubo algo en la historia de este que fuera una especie de sorpresa. El estilo Game Boy está muy logrado pero como nunca tuve esa consola no me generó efecto nostalgia de aquella época. Puntaje: 7/10
Cortito, pero buen juego de Game Boy que causa cierta nostalgia
Super polar noir dans un univers de chat! La fin est marquante!
J'ai déjà joué au jeu dans sa version GameBoy et j'ai décidé de le racheter sur Steam pour soutenir le développeur. J'aime bien l'univers d'Inspector Waffles que j'ai découvert avec cet épisode. C'est un petit jeu sympa et tranquille qui permet de passer un bon moment. :)
Jeu sympa avec des énigmes pas trop prises de tête. La musique aussi est cool pour ceux qui aiment les sonorités 8 bits de la Game Boy j'espère qu'il y aura d'autres jeux. Pour les points négatifs, je dirais qu'il manque une option pour faire avancer le personnage plus vite et qu'il y a aussi des indices à trouver dans chaque épisode et qu'il manque un récapitulatif des ces indices dans les épisodes suivant
I liked the first game more but this is still charming. Would have been more fun to actually play it on a game boy color ngl
Very short but charming point-and-click adventure game with a lovely retro-Game Boy aesthetic. The game is prequel to the prior Inspector Waffles game, but it completely stands on its own and if you haven't played it, there will be zero issues just playing this. But back to the point, love the charming characters and writing in this game, and the length is perfect, not too long or short. Easy recommend to any point-and-click adventure fans or fans of games like the Ace Attorney/Phoenix Wright series, even more casual ones since there's definitely nothing too demanding, zero-way to soft-lock yourself, and what you need to progress an investigation is never more than a minute or two away at absolute most.
After playing the first amazing game, it feels great to play the prequel in a more retro style. Amazing experience so far, go play it!
A prequel to Inspector Waffles made with GB studio, the writing is still great, some puzzles are harder, but still fun. My only issues are a crash and the controls stopped working a couple times.
