画面和演出很不错
五星好评!
几个不错的谜题,以及家国情怀背景,是一个值得一玩的游戏。游戏的背景音乐也很不错,很有那种悠扬正气,荡气回肠的感觉。就是最后我多嘴说一句,看完结尾制作名单,这有点口音的外语真的是歪g人配的?!
Good game
Awesome story!
推荐!玩的时候让我想到了弹丸,很多跟弹丸真的特别像
This game was both a fantastic detective game and a dive into 1900ish China! Shen and Afu are awesome characters, the mysteries are fun to solve, and it's all very well researched with great twists and turns! I couldn't put it down!
不错的推理游戏,结局也很震撼。
六章打完像是又玩了一集《大逆转裁判》 水墨开篇,山河入卷。 本作最难得的亮点,是将推理叙事与家国情怀自然融合。全程没有空洞的说教,而是通过市井、乡土、实业、江海、旧邸、都会六个不同舞台,让玩家在破案行路之间,真切看见旧中国的积弱与挣扎。 前面两章属于铺垫,适合新手上手,涉案人之间的扭捏关系让人惋惜。 第三章是整部游戏的剧情巅峰与内核升华,也是绝大多数玩家公认的高光章节。舞台落在铁厂, 本章真正把“探案”拔高到了“时代求索”的层面。铁厂象征着晚清风雨飘摇中,国人试图自强自救、实业兴邦的艰难尝试。在落后、闭塞、内外承压的困境里,仍有人咬牙铺路、默默深耕,想用工业与实干为积弱的山河续命。 游戏温柔又沉重地还原了那一段悲壮的救国探索史。 第四章以长江行舟为舞台,迷雾江水、飘摇孤船,氛围感拉满,叙事风格偏向人性试探。剧情反转细腻、人物关系复杂,密闭环境下的悬疑压迫感十足,观感非常出彩。飘摇江船,即是飘摇故国。船上众生百态,对应乱世之中不同立场、不同选择的国人:有人彷徨、有人坚守、有人自私自保、有人负重前行。案件剥离了非黑即白的简单判定,展现出特殊年代里复杂真实的人性,最后对于凶手的处理也是让人满意。 第五章属于承上启下的转折篇章,节奏内敛深沉。以旧日秘辛、人物过往、陈年恩怨为切口,串联起前几章埋藏的大量伏笔,让整个故事的人物弧光与时代暗线逐渐完整,这方面也是继承了逆转裁判铺垫案传统 第六章终章将所有伏笔、人物、时代矛盾尽数收束,把整部作品的格局推向顶点。申城风云激荡,多方势力博弈交织,个人命运、众生悲欢、时代洪流彻底交融,收尾恢弘完整、余味悠长。 西方法官与清朝法官那耐人寻味的上下位关系让你在游玩时不得不黯然神伤。 通关六章回望全程,《山河旅探》是一部难得的国风推理+家国叙事佳作,打完才听闻dlc迟迟不见消息,希望能早日上线吧。
Murders on the Yangtze River is an absolute hidden gem! If you enjoy mystery/detective games but want something culturally rich, historically grounded, and genuinely clever, this game is firing on all cylinders. The way it handles early 20th-century China, weaving in real historical shifts, traditional aesthetics, and actual period science, makes the world feel incredibly alive. It actively uses cultural knowledge as genuine puzzle pieces for the cases, delivering well-thought-out mysteries and a great cast of characters. Highly recommended!
