Overland

Works on a majority of systems, and a good story with a unique world

Цікава концепція гри.

strategy based game with lore i dont understand that is intriguing nonetheless. i love the dogs TwT

So the thing about minimalism is. You need to be clear how your game works. How your game works needs to be interesting. Neither of these is true in Overland. It has a good premise! Aliens have invaded and you're on a liminal road trip trying to stay alive. You can scavenge items and recruit other travelers and you need to maintain your car. This is all good. But the interface is clunky, explains nothing, doesn't control intuitively, and punishes you extremely for not intuiting it. For example, I got a buddy and found a new car. I fueled it, turned it on, brought both cars to the stage exit, we were both ready to leave, I selected leave, and abandoned my buddy in his fueled and running car. Why? But sometimes it's worth pushing through a game that communicates badly. Sometimes the gameplay is deep and rewarding. It isn't. Enemy moves a couple blocks. You move a couple blocks. If you're injured, you move less blocks and can't escape the enemy. If the enemy catches you, you die. Theoretically spending items makes things more interesting. This is a game that cares a lot about resources. But like. None of the resources explain what they do. You just have to guess. And then when you do get them to do their thing correctly and in the right context, which is not even remotely guaranteed, it's underwhelming as balls and you lose anyway. For example, med-kitting that guy who got hit by an enemy? Bad idea. They're in the path of the enemy. And they can't get out because the injured state has reduced their movement speed. Also carrying capacity is so low that it kind of doesn't matter if you want to use items. You shouldn't. You need that space for fuel. I do think the game looks good, and I like art games, and I think Overland skims close to being something neat. But I think it would need lots more of everything to function the way it is, or it would need to scrap the entire tactical interface for just decision making if it wanted to stay minimalist.

Pour commencer, j'aurais aimer qu'il y aurait un moyen de laisser des rewiews neutre, car clairement c'est ce que résume le mieux l'expérience d'Overland Le jeu, que ce soit en français ou en anglais, contient trop de conversations bizarre entre nos personnages qui fait qu'on ne s'attache à aucun d'entre eux, donc déjà c'est un jeu qui se joue que pour le lore ou le gameplay, ou juste car le est plutôt joli Et le gameplay est loin d'être mauvais, mais il est très répétitif; soit tu sauve un personnage, soit tu fais le plein d'essence, soit tu loot d'autres voitures, soit tu changes de voitures, et se battre contre les créatures aurait pu être tentant, mais dès que tu en tue une, 3 autres spawns, puis y'a pas de système d'exp, donc c'est quoi l'intérêt ? Aussi, j'aimerais critiquer la facilité du mode normal comparé au mode difficile; en normal, tout le monde commence avec un sac à dos et 3 actions par tours, c'est pas le cas en difficile, les sacs à dos faut les trouver, et c'est deux actions par tours sauf si un personnage à le bon trait de caractère, et je trouve ça dommage que le mode normal soit juste un mode où toutes les unités ont un buffs de départ Aussi , le monde compte à rebours est mal foutu, déjà que tu as genre 15 secondes pour faire ton tour (+ 5 par unités supplémentaires je crois), ce qui est un peu chaud, en plus le décompte continue dans le menu pour arranger son inventaire, ce que je trouve un peu débile Mais malgré ça j'aime le jeu, c'est clair que c'est pas la meilleur expérience, mais je me suis pris d'affection pour ce jeu Ne l'achetez pas pour 20 euros cependant, attendez qu'il soit en promo à 7 euros environs, je trouve que c'est un prix correct Merci de m'avoir lu, bonne journée, soirée, nuit, ou peu importe

賢い犬だなぁ

Absolute worst controls i've experienced in a game in ages. I mean, absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. I'd be embarrassed to put out a game with these controls. On top of that, you have a fixed view. So if there's a monster on the other side of something big. To bad, you dont get to see it unless you use the "camera," mode. But as soon as you exit, you're immediately back in the fixed vies. The art style is fantastic, and the game is a great idea. Unfortunately it's wasted on controls, that I am guessing they just gave up on. I also hate that the car can't go anywhere other than two strips of road, the car has no storage, and you cant go into any buildings. The game has very little in it overall, and gets boring pretty fast.

中规中矩的战棋游戏，美术挺好的，一局五六小时吧，难度适中

After playing this game on the apple arcade (shame it's not on mobile) I've honestly had a great time with it. It's not only a turn based strategy game but an effective story telling game where your choices matter. It's sweet and simple, and doesn't try to be something it's not. I'd say it's worth the money and especially if you have a steam deck, as this is a fun game for travel.

Very fun to play with the puzzles, but not a ton of ability to replay. Unless you play as dogs. The dogs are good.
