买给女朋友收获几小时自由安静的时光!
Nora: The Wannabe Alchemist was a rough start for me. I spent a lot of the early game feeling lost, and I eventually ended up using mods to make the experience easier and more enjoyable. Without them, I'm not sure I would've stuck with it. The interior decorating was kind of cute, but there weren't many options to work with, and the story felt pretty empty overall. There are some charming ideas here, but they never felt fully developed. I didn't hate my time with it, but it definitely wasn't a game that lived up to its potential for me.
great game Just wish it had more bigger money making clients.
To bardzo prosta gra ale po 30 minutach zaczyna się mocno nudzić. Nie porywa za bardzo zbyt długo trzeba zbierać zioła aby zarobić. W mojej ocenie 5/10.
I love the simplicity of the story and dearly hope for it to be continued.
怎么去沼泽,怎么做完美发型药水啊,我死活进不去TAT please tell me how to get the swamp(the top left corner of the map.) It really bother me long time
还行,相关课程3已经做完了,什么时候更新下个章节 强烈建议加入云存档,没有云存档要过几个月更新重新回来开档,没几个人玩的下去
A very good game
this game is bland it would be better as a mobile game with a touch screen especially since its a glorified grinding game if i hadnt already spent hours trying to figure out if theres anything beyond grinding only to find out its essentially in game paywalled so you have to do the grinding i usually like monotonous things theyre easy to do in succession but this isnt just monotonous its anxiety inducing did you misclick on a flower instead of the plant you were trying to save guess what that spot is useless now the paying for unlocking your own garden is stupid too if it wasnt obnoxiously pricey i would have bought every spot and see if you can softlock the game by not having acess to the revival potion and having every spot filled with a dead plant
非常让人生气的游戏,赚钱速度非常慢,消耗又高,花果都是随机出现,果子很快就没了,时间药水也没什么作用,每次采摘的时候都手忙脚乱,这就算了,好不容易开了沼泽地图,结果有个幽灵不断偷我的植物!800-2500的植物它就这么偷了!一路做任务到要做反隐药水,做了也没有下一步提示,进度直接卡这了,我不得不经常补种,损失大得让我想尖叫 什么烂游戏,强烈不推荐!!! PS:一个药水20-40,一个工具要2500-5000,更不用说两块图的开地花费,制作人是不是恶意拉长游玩时间啊?! 真的生气,弃游了 This is the most horrible, annoying and irritating game I ever played, with snail-paced money earning and high price items. Flowers and fruits appear randomly in each collection phase, and the fruit disappears quickly. The time potion didn't help much. Every time I have to act fast and hurry to avoid plants from dying, and is really tired. What's worse, I finally unlocked the swamp map, and a ghost keeps stealing my plants! My 800-2500 gold worth plants! It just stole them! I finish the task all the way until I had to do the anti-hidden potion, but there weren't any hints for the next step. The progress was completely stuck, and I had to replant the plants again and again, and yet the ghost just kept stealing. The loss was so big that I wanted to scream. It is a non-worth game! I would not recommend it to anyone! ! ! PS: A potion sells 20-40 gold, and a tool costs 2500-5000 yuan, also the cost of opening new plant pots in both maps is too high. I didn't get anything from this terrible game except anger, annoyance, and anxiety, I would not play it anymore
