Атмосферно, есть возможность выбора концовки в игре, очень расслабляющая игра
tinha tanta expectativa com esse jogo que me frustrei muito. é um jogo que se vende por ser relaxante mas, pra mim, é o completo contrário disso... ele possui muitos problemas de qualidade de vida... tudo que voce faz é muito lento e o jogo se torna absurdamente monótono e repetitivo. os personagens não são carismáticos, a expressão facial é quase nula e você não se sente imerso quase nunca. a trilha sonora é boa mas não tem variedade nenhuma, inclusive depois de algumas horas eu deixei no mudo e coloquei meu spotify pra tocar e isso melhorou muito a experiencia. resumindo: é um jogo com potencial desperdiçado, não é um cozy game pois é muito mal polido e seus defeitos irritam, entao nao consegui sentir conforto jogando isso. fiz 100% pq nao demanda nada muito além de zerar. vale a pena caso voce nao espere nada por esse game... no fim das contas ele possui algumas qualidades. o problema maior é que essas qualidades sempre vem acompanhadas de algum defeito. só vou deixar como "recomendado" porque, no fim das contas, sinto que é injusto deixar uma análise negativa. joguem mas não criem expectativas. jogo nota 5/10
A cozy relaxation game with a bit of a story. It was nice to 'live' in this town and enjoy what sounds like a pretty mundane task - delivering mail. I didn't think I'd enjoy doing it this much. The environment is of course quite beautiful and I enjoyed looking out over the lake and delivering items in the beautiful environs. The music was decent too, but I do wish the radio had a bigger selection of tracks. I did find Velvet Moon - Open Sky which I became quite fond of. Sadly my ending was completely messed up, I somehow got all the endings one after the other, and with mismatching dialogues and subtitles that randomly got cut off. I have no idea what happened here. This left a sour taste in my mouth but despite that I'll still recommend it if you're looking for a relaxing palate cleanser. The game ran perfectly fine on Linux via Proton.
Игра довольно расслабляющая. Геймплей простой, симулятор почтальона. Баги - 1) бесит, что когда открываешь багажник и сразу нажимаешь Е, не дождавшись пока анимация закончится, гг закрывает багажник. 2) приехала к церкви, гг начала вспоминать, вышла из машины и речь оборвалась, достижение не было получено. Покаталась взад-вперёд ничего не помогло, только загружать сохранение. В принципе из багов наверное всё, гг ходит медленно, фургон управляется немного тяжело. Под конец после 8 дня уже на автопилоте ездила, задрало одно и тоже. Классно, что рутину разбавляют сюжетные задания, встречи какие-то, звонки. Не понравилось, что диалоги однотипные, что бы игрок не выбрал, в 90% нпс говорят одну фразу. Иллюзия выбора небольшая. Графика приятная, природа хорошо передана, но цветопередача лиц героев в тенях хромает. Не должен персонаж в свете костра быть зелёным или оливковым, уж извините. Понравилась озвучка. По сюжету: хз, притянуто всё. Что лесбийская линия, что линия с этим Робертом. Как будто только гг что-то надо. Энджи просто вылила кучу негатива, свалила куда-то и отсылает какие-то записки потом. Роберт вообще свалил из города, потом появляется в конце непонятно для чего. На самом свидании он вместо того, чтобы общаться с гг идет помогать хозяйке закусочной. Создаётся впечатление игры в одну калитку. Эти угрозы от главаря почты, что использовать фургон в личных целях запрещено вообще не к месту. Ладно, если бы это как-то наказывалось. Пальчиком помахали, да и всё. В целом норм, на пару вечеров пойдёт.
Lake is one of my ALL TIME favorite cozy games. I have it on both Steam and PS5. That is how much I love it. I've finished it and will still play it when I want to indulge in cozy game play. If you're on the fence about buying it - buy it! Look around, walk around and enjoy the beauty of Providence Oaks! :) <3
Worse than expected, to be honest. The game is lame, slow, uncanny, and unresponsive. The plot is boring and predictable . From the trailer, you would think this game is more, and it does not deliver , when you are playing , you hope it would be less . I don't think you can even call this slop or soulless, just call it bad.
o jogo e muito bom e relaxante
Seneler sonra döndüğünüz kasabanızda postacılık yapıyorsunuz, yeni insanlarla tanışıyor eskiden tanıdıklarınızla karşılaşıyorsunuz. Kısa ve tatlı bir hikayesi de oluyor bu sırada. Chill ve kısa bir oyun istiyorsanız tavsiyedir.
I enjoyed Lake as a laid back game I could play when I came home from work tired and just wanted to zone out a little bit. You play as Meredith, a woman who's returning to her hometown to sub in for her dad (a mailman), since her parents are on vacation. The gameplay is you basically drive around in your mail truck and deliver letters and packages while interacting with various townspeople. At the end of the game, you face a choice: do you want to go back to the big city or stay for good in your hometown? I enjoyed delivering the letters as you have muzak playing on your mail truck radio, and the environment is well rendered. The lighting will change over the course of your day, and you get to drive around in different weather scenarios, too. I played the game being fairly agreeable with most of the characters, as I wanted to maximize my interactions. If I replayed it, I would definitely choose to tell the nosy town busybody to mind her own business. I also enjoyed playing the additional DLC content where you get to play as the dad doing his job during the last stretch before Christmas. This time everything is covered with snow and the houses all have their Christmas lights out. So, relaxing game, but just know that this is mostly a story/character interaction style game with the actual gameplay just being driving around in your truck. If that sounds like a chill way to spend an evening to you, you would probably enjoy this game. (Edited to clarify the DLC content where you get to play as the dad is additional content you have to pay for, not really a "bonus" as I first called it.)
Супер чиловая игра, прошел основную часть и сейчас играю длц, симулятор курьера с приятным визуалом и не напряжной историей, для отдыха на пару тройку вечеров.
