Joe Wander and the Enigmatic Adventures

Don't trust the beautiful graphics. It looks nice but the puzzles eat your soul and spit it out xD 10/10

Really not worth the money even on sale. (refunded) The design of the whole game is very bad. The cutscenes look better on ps1 games. And the character movement and enemies are very clunky. Overall not a fun experience. Maybe if you are tripping on something it might be interesting.

Tags told me that this game is relaxing:) Oh, boy! It is so hardcore that I have flashbacks of the Crash Bandicoot's hardest levels. It is defeated now and I can rest a bit:) Devs, I'm waiting for the next game.

My son and I are having an absolute blast with this game. 10/10 would recommend. Its so beautiful and fun.

Ich könnte mich maßlos ärgern für dieses Spiel 30,- Euro verbrannt zu haben! Schon „merkwürdig“ das alle bisherigen 20 Bewertungen zu 100% positiv ausfallen. Wenn dieses Spiel sich wenigstens auf die angepriesenen „Rätselabenteuer“ beschränken würde wäre alles fein, denn die haben gefallen. Aber nein, man muss auch noch souls-like Bosse einbauen. Warum muss dieser Unsinn heutzutage in jedes Spiel eingebaut werden? Dann baut wenigstens, für die Freunde von Rätseln, eine skip-Funktion ein damit man diesen Mist überspringen kann! Oder Checkpoints, oder vereinfachen, oder, oder, oder. Bei „Apopis“ habe ich nach etlichen Versuchen aufgegeben weil man unmöglich den Controller 5 Minuten lang konzentriert halten kann ohne dass der einem irgendwann aus der Hand rutscht. Schade für das Spiel, denn mit dem Fokus auf die Rätsel hat es wirklich gefallen aber in dem Zustand bleibt leider nur der Daumen nach unten!

Current Steam Deck users beware. The frame rate in this game was very erratic for me with large jumps between 30, 40, and 60 fps. This is very different than the fairly smooth 60 fps with small dips into the 50s shown on Youtube videos filmed near the original launch date. A few other recent purchasers are reporting similar issues via Reddit so I think something may have changed since launch. Perhaps updates to SteamOS that don't work well with this game? It's a shame because I love puzzle platformers and this one looks great. I really wish I could have played it but I couldn't find a stable frame rate after trying to everything (adjusting in-game graphics settings, frame rate caps, different proton versions, etc). I ended up having to refund the game.

Joe Wander crashes constantly. (A developer on Discord helped me, works without problems now.) Pros + The different kinds of puzzles are ok :) Cons - The bosses of each level is bland :-/ - The controls are bad. - You sometimes can't see where to parkour to because of bad camera view. Therefore after I've completed Joe Wander I'll tell that this was overall a bad experience.

Ein Game mit unglaublich vielen, sehr schönen Details. Das Spiel macht auch als Anfänger im Genre Spaß und verzaubert mit Musik und Optik einfach immer wieder. Neue Mechaniken, lassen den Spielspaß nicht vergehen und fordern immer wieder neu heraus. Auch die abwechslungsreichen Boss Kämpfe sind klasse gemacht. Den Zuschauern im Stream hat das zusehen auch viel Spaß bereitet. Holt euch das Game unbedingt und gebt ihm ne Chance.

100%ed the game. I really only recommend this game if you LOVE puzzles and platforming, cause this game has hard ass puzzles and hard ass platforming. All with jank physics, a whip that often just doesn't work, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ mini-games, 1 hit KO, and a semi-broken achievement. At the core is a really creative set of mechanics that I wish the devs had stuck to showcasing, instead of trying to shoehorn them all into a nut punch of YOLO platforming.

BUYER BEWARE This is clearly a beautiful game and seems like a great platformer. However, do not buy this if you will be playing on the Steam Deck. It runs awfully even at low presets. This game has no right to be Steam Deck Verified. Please adjust, Valve.
