[i]Pahelika: Revelations[/i] is a step up from [i]Secret Legends[/i] in that has better graphics and more varied puzzles (only one jigsaw this time), but it's still pretty bad. There are still several pixel hunts and puzzles with no in-game clues that force you to guess. Not helping matters is the fact that the hint button is buggy, unreliable, and has a long recharge time. Sometimes it highlighted something I had already dealt with, or even nothing at all, and still reset the timer. [i]Pahelika[/i] may look a little more polished now, but it's still the same amateurish, nonsensical garbage.
First of all, the negative reviews for this game are ill founded. It is a huge step up from its predecessor, which I bought at two bucks and wouldn't pay more for it. The reason I am posting this review is because there are far too many negative reviews for this game on steam. Very enjoyable game, quite difficult at times. I found the hardest level to be the one with the air rune in the house. Which was like the second level, which doesn't make sense. But whatever, it was a very enjoyable game. One thing however, there is a moment in the 'Ghost Manor' level when you are asked to order pictured events in sequence as it is recorded in your journal, which was collected chronologically. However if you are playing in non-casual mode, which many people who have high self-esteems would, then you would never know that it isn't in chronological order. Call me a layman, but I don't understand how even a genius of intellect would be able to divine that they weren't in chronological order if the game has you collect it as such. Other than that ridiculously impossible task, the game is pretty solid, 7/10
Review update as of march 21st: Finally found nice and easy way to get the Jigsaw Master achievement. Before i dive into details i will need to explain that there are two types of pause in the game. One of them is an ESC pause which brings up the menu (we don't need it). The second option is to press spacebar. So in order to get the achievement you need to press spacebar and solve the jigsaw while the game is in quickpause state. You will still be able to interact with everything. Just be sure to press spacebar again before you place the final piece. Oh and i doubt this is the intended way of getting this achievement, but at least you won't have to ask uncle SAM to help you :). Good luck! Thanks to baSinga for helping me figure it out and thanks to everyone on the forums who gave their suggestions! [strike][b]Achievement hunters! Avoid this game! You can't 100% it because one of the achievements (Jigsaw Master) is physically impossible to get. It says that 7.6 percent of players got it and i assure you that every single one of them cheated. [/b][/strike] The game itself is mediocre but playable, although some puzzles are counter-intuitive and are difficult to comprehend without a guide. The hint system isn't that good either. It works sometimes, but usually it points to something you already interacted with and can't do anything else (but it doesn't hint that you need to get an extra item from somewhere else), thus the hint is wasted and it's gonna take ~2 minutes or so to recharge... What was really annoying is poorly implemented clicking system. Sometimes when you click on an object, it doesn't register or does the wrong thing (for example when you need to throw a powder into the portal, instead the game teleports you as if you pressed the portal with your regular cursor (not the powder one). This is especially painful during the jigsaw minigame. [strike]You have 60 seconds and 35 puzzle pieces. Simple math hints us that you have 1.7 seconds per piece... Even if you memorize all the spots where the pieces go, it's stil impossible due to: a) you need time to rotate the pieces (which adds at least 1 second or more especially if you need to rotate it several times) b) there is only 5 pieces visible (which means you can't start with corners, unless you get lucky, because what pieces you get is randomly generated) c) the precision on the placement must be spot on. Even if you know where to place a piece, sometimes it would cancel anyway and get thrown into the box on the right, thus wasting the precious time.So it's kind of pixel hunting at this point...1.7 seconds to find the correct pixel. GOOD LUCK! As a result we get an achievement that is impossible to complete for a human being, and i highly doubt even a perfectly scripted bot would be able to (see reason c). [/strike] This negative review is staying, unless the achievement gets fixed.
[h1]Pros:[/h1] - Gut erzählte und außergewöhnliche Geschichte im frühen 13ten Jahrhundert - Knifflige, zahlreiche Rätsel - Schöne Erzählerstimme - Wenn der Hinweisgeber funktioniert, hilft er auch deutlich - Lösungen sind immer kompetent in die Spielewelt eingefügt - Wichtige Stellen werden mit Sternenschimmern markiert, um wichtige Details zu geben - Man kann problemlos auf den Desktop wechseln - Detailliertes Leveldesign, das mir persönlich sehr schön gefallen hat http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1324111929 [h1]Cons:[/h1] - Der Hinweisgeber scheitert in manchen Situation und zeigt merkwürdige Hinweise an - Keine Einstellungsmöglichkeiten - Das Betträtsel ist ziemlich unschlüssig und weit hergeholt - In den Randbereichen ist das Steam-Overlay zu sehen http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1324111490 [h1]Fazit:[/h1] Man merkt Pahelika: Revelations HD das Alter an, sowohl grafisch, als auch technisch. Aber das heißt nicht, dass das Spiel schlecht ist. Im Gegenteil, das Spiel ist durch die überzeugende Geschichte und die ständigen Rätsel genial. Der Spieler muss sich genaustens die Spieleumwelt merken, da überall Hinweise für das Weiterkommen versteckt sind und die man sich unbedingt merken sollte. Selten hat mir das Rätseln solchen Spaß bereitet. Dabei muss man jedoch darauf achten, dass man alle Möglichkeiten überdenkt, denn manche Rätsel sind wirklich knifflig. Das kann leider sogar zum sogenannten "Pixelclicking" ausarten, da manche Lösung sehr schwer zu erschließen sind. Aber das hat mich selten gestört. Insgesamt ein überzeugendes Point-and-Click Adventure mit geringfühigen Macken. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1324110741
Bu tarz point&click oyunlarını sevmeme rağmen bu son derece çağ dışı görünümde ve başarısız oyunu maalesef sevemiyorum. Çok hantal mekaniklere ve içine çekmeyen bir konuya sahip. Grafikleri zaten fotoğraflarından bile gözünüzü kanatmaya yetiyordur.
[i]Si ça c'est de la HD...[/i] [b]Pahelika: Revelations HD[/b], sorti en 2015 sur Steam, est un Point'&'Click où l'on incarne Sudesh, qui fait des cauchemards et pense que tout ça est lié à un vil magicien. [h1]Les plus :[/h1] - Les énigmes sont bien faites, certaines assez compliquées, car il faut beaucoup se renseigner sur les notes, bien observer l'environnement, etc.. - Une durée de vie respectable, environ 3.5h-4h pour finir le jeu. Plus aurait été trop. - Les cinématiques, faites avec des dessins plutôt que des animations (heureusement d'ailleurs, vu la qualité de la 3D), sont réussies. [h1]Les moins :[/h1] - Ils ont raté le plus important dans ce style de jeu... La hitbox.. Obligé de cliquer plusieurs fois sur la même chose pour la prendre, l'utiliser ou la faire intéragir avec d'autres objets. Un délice. - Si le jeu est vraiment sorti en 2015, les graphismes sont à vomir. Je pense qu'il a dû sortir dans les années début 2000, mais je n'ai rien trouvé à ce sujet. - La voix du sorcier est infame. L'écouter est un supplice ^^ - L'association de certains objets avec d'autres objets ou éléments du décors sont à discuter.. (Oui, parce que rentrer un baton aimanté dans un trou de souris pour en ressortir avec une pince coupante, je trouve pas ça hyper intuitif.) - Une bande-son bof. - L'histoire est inintéressante, et la qualité des voix ne m'ont pas aidé à suivre. - Pas de VF. [h1]Conclusion :[/h1] Une histoire bof, une gestion des clics ratée, des graphismes vieillots mais avec de bonnes énigmes, [b]Pahelika: Revelations HD[/b] fait parti de la longue lignée des jeux baclés. Dommage. _ _ _ _ [h1]Si vous avez trouvé cette évaluation utile, venez rejoindre notre [url=http://steamcommunity.com/groups/lombrepourpre#curation]page de curation et nos forums ![/url][/h1]
love these games , i cant wait for another installment , love how they make u think outside the box , i dont care if all the achievemnts r fixed yet or not cuz i am sure u all will get around to fixing them eventually , games for me r a kind of therapy so the achievements arent a high priority on my list , they r a luxury , hope to see a few more installments of this series on the market soon
Not best HOG and not even one of good ones. Controls little buggy and have to click many times same thing before it works. Hint many times gives something you already done. Story is not good and there are many games with better graphics. Pahelika is not good HOG.
[h1][b] Reseña de Pahelika: Revelations[/b][/h1] [h2]Resumen del Juego[/h2] Pahelika: Revelations es una aventura indie de apuntar y clic en primera persona que te vende misterio, magia y “filosofía” con la confianza de alguien que leyó dos frases profundas en una galleta de la fortuna y decidió armar un juego alrededor. La propuesta es clara: explorar ambientes atmosféricos, resolver rompecabezas y avanzar a base de lógica, observación… y esa terquedad que solo aparece cuando te niegas a buscar una guía. Se siente casual en el ritmo (no te va a perseguir nada… más allá de tu propia paciencia), pero también tiene su vena de estrategia: administrar tu atención, conectar pistas y no perderte en el clásico “¿qué objeto minúsculo me falta clicar ahora?”. Primera impresión: encantadoramente viejo-escuela, como un libro de acertijos con banda sonora bonita… y con la misma habilidad de hacerte sentir genio o completo despistado en intervalos de 30 segundos. [h2]Lo Mágico y lo Terrenal[/h2] Lo Bueno: Rompecabezas como columna vertebral: si vienes por misterio y lógica, aquí hay comida. Gran banda sonora: de esas que te hacen sentir más inteligente de lo que estás siendo. Ambientación atmosférica y “mágica”: buen mood para perderte un rato en el misterio. 18 logros de Steam: migajas de dopamina para justificar tu obsesión con el 100%. Lo No Tan Bueno: Un jugador: si te atoras, tu única compañía es el silencio… y tu orgullo. 0 jugadores actuales: el misterio más grande del juego es encontrar a alguien jugándolo ahora mismo. Recomendaciones totales: N/A, o sea que el jurado todavía no llega… o se perdió en un puzzle. Apuntar y clic + rompecabezas: si odias backtracking mental y probar interacciones, esto te va a “iluminar” a golpes.

Tiene una ambientación lograda, música que realmente suma y una estructura de rompecabezas que, cuando hace clic, se siente satisfactoria. Cuando no hace clic… bueno, digamos que el juego también te revela cosas: principalmente tu nivel de paciencia. Ahora, hablemos del elefante invisible en la sala: 0 jugadores actuales y recomendaciones en N/A. Esto no significa automáticamente que sea malo, pero sí que estás entrando a un “club secreto” donde el único socio eres tú. Si te gusta explorar misterios en solitario y no necesitas aprobación social para disfrutar un apuntar y clic, aquí hay una experiencia decente tirando a encantadora. Si buscas algo con conversación comunitaria, guías frescas y vida alrededor, este se siente como un templo abandonado (muy atmosférico, eso sí). [h3]Recomendación de Compra (Solo si te gustan los rompecabezas clásicos)[/h3] Puntuación Total: 5.8/10 Número de jugadores activos al momento de hacer esta review: 0 Descuento máximo registrado: N/A Veredicto: [i]Recomendado con reservas: buen misterio para fans del apuntar y clic, pero vienes por los puzzles y te vas sin comunidad[/i] Si disfrutas rompecabezas, misterio y un ritmo calmado con vibra mágica, vale la pena darle una oportunidad. Si te desespera quedarte atorado, odias explorar a base de clics y necesitas un juego “vivo” alrededor, mejor sigue de largo antes de que el único revelation sea tu frustración.
