Plague: London 1665

A realistic portrayal of London during the Bubonic Plague. Your role is the plague doctor to buy bodies and keep your family fed. [h1]Pros: [/h1] - Realistic pixel graphics of London buildings and clothing of residents. - Music reflects medieval London vibe. [h2]Cons: [/h2] - Not enough tasks besides burying bodies. Besides looking for random items to make traps and pulling bodies outside of river, there is not much else to do. This was my observation after playing through 4-5 days within the game. - Having a good Morality does not have a noticeable impact in game. Change it by allowing you to earn money or other items if you maintain a good morality. [h3] Suggestions: [/h3] - In the intro, remind the player to read help menu before playing. This will reduce chance player is confused how to bury dead or other aspects like doing tasks. - Allow city map available from menu for viewing any time. - NPCs do not play an active role in the story/game, add some church members or other characters that add to the story or affect your decisions. - Move house towards center of map and walking back and forth from graveyard wastes time for the player. - Have 2 active feed family quests at same time. If food is not in stock or you don't have enough money, you can't feed them by the deadline. - At night, add special events or tasks for the player to do. Mini games to get money or trap parts. - Explain the benefit of building traps. Do we catch mouse to eat them, stop spreading plague, or other reason? - Add scenes or newspaper stories of families crying, feeling depressed, or asking God why a family member died. This is mass death incident and it does not feel hopeless enough. - [spoiler] When a family member dies to starvation, your character has no reaction. Add a scene where you feel angry or frustrated. [/spoiler] [b] Conclusion: A pixel game that gives you a realistic experience of surviving during the Bubonic Plague. They have released patches to improve the game and put in effort to make the game historically accurate. Adding some changes to the map and enhancing tasks will make this a complete experience. At this time, I can recommend this game with the hope that the developers make some changes. [/b]
