Lumino City

추천을 줄까 말까 정말 고민을 많이 한 게임. 아트와 연출, 직접 세트를 만들고 그걸 촬영해서 게임으로 그대로 옮긴 맵의 퀄리티, 인게임에서 읽을 수 있는 상당한 양의 서적들이나 900페이지에 달하는 할아버지의 힌트 책까지, 자신들이 생각한 세계관을 구현하기 위한 정성이 정말 많이 들어갔다는게 잘 느껴짐. 아트 디자인은 정말 나무랄 데 없이 훌륭함. [b]아트는.[/b] 게임성 측면은 많이 아쉬움. 일단 기본적으로 움직임이는게 굉장히 불편한데, 행동을 한 번 시작하고나면 중간에 행동을 취소 할 수가 없어서 동작이 긴 행동을 실수로라도 눌러버리면 그걸 한참을 보고 있어야 함. 어디를 눌러야 행동을 하는지 감이 안 잡히는 부분도 많아서 여기저기 눌러보다 필요 없는 행동이 시작되서 그거 보고 있다 현타 오는 경우도 꽤 있었음. 퍼즐 난이도는 너무 간단하거나, 반대로 어렵고 귀찮은 것들로 나뉜 느낌을 받았고, 새로운 스테이지에 진입했을 때 뭘 해야할 지, 가지고 있는 아이템을 어디에 써야할 지 막막한 구간이 좀 있었음. 그나마 퍼즐의 경우에는 할아버지의 힌트 책에 풀이법이나 정답지가 아예 적혀있어 이를 참조하면 크게 막힐 일은 없긴하나, 이걸 처음 얻고 펼쳤을 때 알아먹지도, 궁금하지도 않은 내용으로 900페이지 고봉밥 문서쪼가리 내미는 걸 보고 이게 공략집이라는 생각을 한 사람이 얼마나 있을까? 세계관에 대한 정보는 맵 여기저기 뿌려져있었지만 정작 스토리라고 할 만한 건 마땅히 없었고, 엔딩에서 모든 게 밝혀지는데, 지금까지 해온 플레이와 관련된 연출은 고생한게 생각나서 괜찮았지만 전말을 알게 된 스토리에는 여전히 큰 감흥이 들지 않았음. 생각나는 BGM도 딱히 없고. 아트에 몰빵한 게임이고, 들어간 노력이 느껴지는 결과물이긴 하지만 게임으로서는 영 아닌 점들이 보이고, 특히 언어관련해서 iOS쪽에는 한국어 지원을 해주고 정작 안드로이드나 스팀판은 한국어 지원을 할 생각이 있다더니 결국 유기한 점. 그래놓고서는 한글패치 배포도 허락 해주지 않았던 점 등 로컬라이징 관련으로도 아쉬운 부분이 많았기에 평은 비추. 다만 아트의 매력에 사로잡힌 사람들에게는 해볼만한 가치가 있다고는 생각함. +이 게임의 가장 큰 장점은 아트와 세계관 설정인데 아트북이나 설정집은 안 팔고 사운드 트랙만 파는 건 뭔..

Absolutely wonderful. The most incredible part of the game is the hand made, large models that create the backdrop for the city. The game is built on film of the city. Close-ups, real lighting, zoom in, zoom out, camera pan - all while the paper cut out characters play out the game in front. There are varied puzzles with binary code punch cards, Morse code, circuitry, lens adjustment, setting up gears, without repeating concepts. The puzzles required me to use paper and pencil, calculator, even my camera on my phone. The music was entrancing. The characters were immediately memorable and the writing was heartfelt, funny, though not too deep. The gameplay is reminiscent of the old point and click adventures of Tim Schafer, but much less backtracking and more linearity going from one puzzle to the next. My favorite independent, short form game of the year for sure

เกมสนุกมาก แก้ปริศนาแบบพ้อยท์แอนด์คลิก ภาพสวย เพลงเพราะ คุ้มค่ากับราคา จุดประกายความใฝ่ฝันในการเรียนวิศวะหรือชื่นชอบเครื่องจักรกลไกสุด ๆ ปริศนาปวดหัวนิดหน่อย แต่มีเฉลยให้ในคู่มือ handy manual ในเกม น้องลูมิก็น่ารัก งานภาพเคลื่อนไหวดี สตอรี่เลิศ ที่ชอบที่สุดก็คือเรื่องของดีเทลรายละเอียดเล็ก ๆ น้อย ๆ และพวกภาพประกอบ อย่างเครื่องมือ กลไก ภาพร่างของเมือง ซึ่งสวยและละเอียดจริง บ่งบอกได้ถึงความใส่ใจของผู้สร้างเกม ดังนั้นไม่ซื้อไม่ได้แล้วป่ะ

Lumino City is great! It's beautiful and charming in a way that can be hard to find nowadays, and many games that bill themselves as handcrafted or artistic unfortunately just do not play well. Lumino City does not have that problem, at least not any more so than other point-and-click and adventure games, which in my experience always have a little bit of jank. Apparently its predecessor Lume isn't as good, but the good news is that you absolutely do not have to play that one for the full experience, even though they are technically connected.

个人评分：4/5 [hr][/hr] 10多年前在iPad上游玩补票，纯手工搭建的背景+解谜有种奥尔森之旅的感觉，甚至连教程和说明都是手工制作+部分ps文字。 谜题也很适中和多样化，比较像是机械迷城那样一个场景一个大的谜题，然后大谜题还有前置很多小谜题，但是本作没有机械迷城那么难，基本很快就能做出来，很适合高考结束抽一天时间玩通关(当时就是高中玩的)。 这种级别的工作量肯定不可能有其他语言的。 当然说缺点的话，这游戏没有云存档，删一次就得重新打，最好一口气打通，一般一周左右的晚间时间就可以打通了。

A childhood game. My dad got it on our family laptop back in 2014-2015. It was and still is such a fantastic game to play. The visuals are fantastic, the creativity and effort put into this game is outstanding for a small company back in 2014. If you're looking for puzzle games that are relaxing, make you think and want to follow a storyline while doing so. Lumino city is one of the best at it. (I don't tend to play puzzle games but this just hits me with nostalgia. Don't mean to have a biased review :D)

What an endearing little gem of a game. Full of character and style, it transports you into a place so unlike anything else you've seen in games before - it has a strong tactile feel to it. On your journey through Lunino City, you will meet a wide variety of quirky characters with their own little problems and issues, and you help them (and yourself) by solving an equally wide variety of puzzles with a very hands-on feel to them. For me as an older gamer, these often harked back to real-life problems from decades ago and stirred up fond memories. The Puzzles definitely make you think, but the Handyman book you get at the start contains hints and tips to pretty much all of them. Many are solvable without these though if you think about them logically. A big recommendation from me, despite the game being fairly short - but that's a good thing, as the pacing is perfect and the game doesn't contain any artificial lengthening.
