Map Map - A Game About Maps

I wasn't sure about the game in the first couple hours of playing on the first few islands, mainly because you're limited in tools and options those first few levels don't evoke much satisfaction when solving location puzzles. But once I unlocked the first real tool (drawing compass) I felt like I was getting into it and having a good time. Overall, I had fun with the game and would recommend it if you enjoy puzzle games that involve logical deduction. I only have two complaints/issues with the game. 1) Because of a bug with the drawing compass and controllers I ended up using a controller to walk around the islands, but would have to switch to keyboard+mouse when using the map if I wanted to be able to use the drawing compass without issue. 2) I have mixed feelings about how much info gets shared when you confirm your guess after putting a marker down. Once you confirm your guess the game will show you where your marker was placed in the 3D world, tell you how far it is from an exact guess, and give you a white line that connects your marker to the perfect one (a rough direction), then gives you 1-3 star rating depending on how close your guess was to perfect. You're allowed to retry a guess as often as you like to get a better rating, it's just sometimes it feels like after guessing the game gives you a lot of info that you may have wanted to try and deduce yourself. While it can help you pinpoint the target if you're having trouble identifying what exactly needs to be marked, that issue can already be addressed by using drawn pictures (like with the raven flower) or using photos once you obtain the camera. My suggestion for a change would be to only show the star rating of your guess at first, and then give a prompt of either "Try again" or "More Info/Continue", the latter option giving you all the additional info the game currently gives you by default. That way if you want to try again for a better rating but don't want a hint or help yet you can simply try again without getting additional info

A good exploration game with a tone to offer if you like to explore and discover a hidden story. Only thing : i would prefer to not have that many info when i put a point down. Retrying points is to easy once you see where you landed your previous guess.

Very fun game. Highly recommended for anyone who would like to be a surveyor in their next life.

Worth it for a unique gameplay mechanic ------------------ I feel the replay value or playing for completion is not there - additional stickers are not that interesting. I wish more of the goals would require you to recreate a map. As it stands, only some of the later levels require this. While 6 hours is not long for this price, I'd definitely recommend it because I find it to be a pretty unique experience. A bit disappointing, how easily you can brute force solutions though, most of the time. I'd welcome a mode with no or very limited guesses (I had "levels can be failed" on but never failed with that).

Fun and cozy little game. Some puzzles can get quite challenging to find and solve. I limited the FPS to 60 in the settings with VSYNC off, or it might take quite a lot of GPU resources at 120-160FPS. But fast reactions are not needed in this game, so 60 FPS are totally fine.

Great game

Süß & knifflig!
