Mu Cartographer

Very interesting bite-sized game, you can see all there is to see within 2-3 hours. Most of the interest comes from learning to uses the various tools you have..

I like the idea. Enjoyed the execution.

Un régale pour les yeux et une enquête parfaite pour faire de la télédétection dans cet univers imaginaire. Merci Alt236 pour la reco, le jeu est absolument une pépite

Very cool little puzzle box. Good story too

This game is about exploration of something entirely foreign and unknown. Learning to control a machine(?) that is complete nonsense at first. This is why I bought the game because the idea of learning how to control this to properly explore sounded very exciting and intriguing. If I was able to master this machine to work for my own goals that would feel incredibly rewarding! Instead this is essentially what happened: -Started following breadcrumbs by moving inputs to where it told me to move inputs to -Reach a dead end pretty quickly wondering "well what now?" -Fiddle around with combinations of inputs and begin to realize different inputs combined provide progress -Proceed to TEDIOUSLY go through each combination by brute force for what felt like lack of a proper smooth progression (and finding new things as a result) -Realize I will end up repeating this same brute force tactic to complete the game to find a small handful of interesting visual and discoveries that feel dull because of the need to brute force for progress in a reasonable amount of time. -Also realize there is no way I can ever begin to properly grasp how to fully control such a machine like I initially wanted to This was kind of disappointing because the base idea is incredibly cool but instead it ends up being too nitpicky with what works and what does not making it very tedious to explore if not impossible. Really what ends up happening is a am given a bunch of different mappings of inputs that I shove together until it says I can find something. It is then that I spend another 5 minutes aimlessly wandering around random noise too afraid to alter it in fear that I will not be able to find the new unlock if I change anything leading to honestly fairly unengaging visuals. So I would not recommend this game which is a shame. I feel if any of the following were the case it would be a much better experience that I could properly enjoy without becoming bored. -One unlock/discovery seamlessly leads to another unlock/discovery [spoiler] like Outer Wilds progression [/spoiler] -The required combinations were not as tightly precise allowing wiggle room for exploration while still heading towards a goal -Not having so many unlocks. Especially ones that require specific backtracking that I cant imagine finding outside of chance or brute force. -Having simpler controls or clearer controls or something that can be revealed and unlocked to fully explain each control (ideally much later in the game (and if this does already exist I apologize but I just cant find much interest in reaching the end currently)) Once again quite unfortunate because I really thought this might be a game I would enjoy but ultimately it was not.

well, it really was an experience. a decent game about finding hidden things, including some people's stories and even tragedies. control is unique and fun to understand, observing changes in the landscapes, switching colours of the map and pursuing more details of fictional [spoiler] (or not.?) [/spoiler] adventurers. thank you for this masterpiece, it definitely has a place in my heart from now on.

Ótimo jogo. Ao acabar, experimente dar uma andada pelo mundo uma última vez.
