[b]※注意,個人吐槽有[/b] ☑簡體中文,翻譯很明顯沒有校正過,很多句子語意不通順,或回答會無法判斷是否符合當下情形。 [h1]入學羅克伍德學院成為一年級生,體驗魔法學院會發生的[b]事情[/b][/h1] ■文字冒險遊戲,操作與Reigns相同,依據對話左右滑選擇回答的卡牌;沒有CG,偏向可愛風角色立繪,沒有全語音,每位角色會有一點基本配音;兩百天的新生生活,基本上就是:上課(無養成要素)、結交朋友(只有幾位固定的朋友可以交哭哭)、與魔獸戰鬥(可迴避),以及捲入後花園失蹤事件(為甚麼主角都會碰到這種事呢)。 「朱利安教授我想嫁給你。」by一位咒語狂的一年級新生。 不知道是不是翻譯的關係,總覺得你這一年級生好像跟某幾位教授都有著那麼一點羅曼史的味道,如果是為了第二章鋪路我會很期待的。 但是與可愛角色以及整體清新的遊戲畫面搭配,卻是突然轉變畫風的失蹤故事,而且還真……有點太過突然而且黑暗了(我都不知道該怎麼吐槽了),可以很明顯地感覺故事有缺洞,或許第二章會再告訴我們更多關於羅克伍德學院的故事,這個更貼近現實情況(不美好)的魔法學院。 ★目前網路上查詢不到攻略,想進入隱藏路線及打其他神秘魔獸需要多刷嘗試。 ■戰鬥是回合制的打牌遊戲,只要有認真上課及選擇友好(另唸:多管閒事)的選項,就可以取得咒語跟物品;越好的物品對戰鬥越有幫助,要特別留意有+回合的物品,可以增加對方等待的回合,幫助你比對方更快速的行動。 ★而根據你的選擇是可以完全迴避戰鬥的。 [h1]缺點[/h1] ■雖然翻卡牌可以使用方向鍵,但必須要按兩下才會有效果,沒有滑鼠好用,滑鼠滑久了也很手痠。 ■並沒有太過自由的遊戲體驗,重玩時會發現路線太過固定。 [h1]結論[/h1] 小品遊戲,但在這個魔法故事未退燒的年代,對於想入學的我們這群麻瓜仍然很吸引人,有很多向哈利波特魔法世界觀致敬的地方;目前只有第一章的故事,後續的章節不知道甚麼時候會再出。 很適合打發時間,推薦給喜歡魔法學院故事的玩家們。 -喜歡我的評論請幫我按個[b]值得參考[/b],或者關注 [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/34499560/]電波發射✩實驗室[/url] 謝謝你(`・ω・´)
This game has lots of appeal for the right player, and the price is excellent. The game is primarily a nicely-illustrated Choose Your Own Adventure, with optional card battles. The card battles use both Spell cards and Item cards, which are drawn randomly during battle. The art is cute, there are mysteries to solve, and you can refight any battles you couldn't win because of bad luck with cards. The game is suitable for both adults and kids, but that's both a strength and a weakness. See relevant details, pros, and cons below. [b]Good to know:[/b] - the setting is based on Harry Potter to an extent that may detract from the more original points of the story - despite the clear Harry Potter inspiration, the story and characters show originality - there are only a limited number of item and spell cards available (12 and 10 respectively) - there are only a limited number of special creatures to battle (7) - [b] this is a Choose Your Own Adventure[/b] style game Pros: - nice art, appropriate music - several branching routes and character interactions (more than I expected for price) - simple enough for children who enjoy reading; enough mystery for adults looking for a very casual game with choices - some limited voice acting (just phrases when a character sprite appears) - price (it's about $3 US, less on sale) - Steam achievements Cons: - lack of saves means no going back to a mid-point to try different a different ending [I understand this is intentional, but overall I think at least a few basic save slots should be available] - card battle needs a clearer tutorial [good if simple system once understood] - lack of story resolution, as game is intended to be first part of several [may not be a con if a sequel *is* produced] [b]Overall:[/b] As long as you know what it is going in, this is a fun game and good value for the price (even without a sale). Recommended for casual and/or family play.
Commendable visual direction, underwhelming everything else. For the price, I had very low expectations on the production front; Even low budget games can be engaging and creative. This game is neither. I wanted to like the characters and I wanted to enjoy the story, but ultimately I was so bored I dropped it altogether. Buy it if you want. You won't miss out on much if you don't.
Game would not run on my laptop that runs most other games just fine had to switch to a different machine. Staff did not respond to my post asking for help getting to run The game is ridiculously on rails and most of your choices do not matter. It does a decent job setting up the atmosphere but the characters are generally flat and do not develop, most of the game is aimless faffing around. There's one genuinely interesting plot twist but it comes up so later that it feels more like sequal bait than anything else.
It's like a fever dream. Nothing makes sense. You just get bits and pieces here and there, feels like you're missing tons of information. Your choices mean nothing. For something that's so reliant on narrative, that's unforgivable. This is purely a VN, ignore the other tags. There's technically a rudimentary optional card game (you can fight a couple of creatures as "challenges"), but this is just tacked-on and uninspired, and has nothing to do with the core game itself. Took me a bit over two hours getting through it; you're probably better off just watching a Harry Potter movie. If you're still interested despite all this, do note that this is only Year 1, and the game just... ends. On a massive cliffhanger. I wouldn't hold my breath for a sequel. If you want to be blue-balled by a Harry Potter-like game, go play Academagia instead. At least that has some meat and depth.
Rocwood Academy is a boring visual novel plagiarising Harry Potter universe. If you are like me and thinking there may be a cool card battle system - skip this game. Card battles are shoddy and actually optional - their outcome effects nothing and they're not even a part of the story.
A história é legal, apesar da semelhança óbvia com Harry Potter, mas achei bastante curta, a descrição do jogo fala que mais capítulos virão, então resta saber se realmente vão entregar o prometido. Um aviso importante, pra quem vê as cartinhas nas fotos do jogo e pensa: É Deck Building?. A resposta é que o jogo está muito mais próximo de uma Visual Novel, do que para um jogo de Deck Building. Parece que foi uma ideia colocada de última hora no jogo, e fica um tanto desconexo com a história do jogo, não sei se isso vai mudar com a introdução dos novos capítulos, mas achei um tanto decepcionante, pois o deck building é até interessante. Como Visual Novel, achei a introdução legal, personagens clichês, mas a historinha é legal. RECOMENDO ESPERAR eles colocarem mais capítulos, pra comprar o jogo, e NÃO RECOMENDO para aqueles que pensam que vão achar um jogo Deck Building profundo aqui, nesse jogo. Vou recomendar positivamente, esperando que eles cumprirão com a promessa de novos capítulos, mas fica a observação.
The writing/characters are so shallow and terrible.
lol the very beginning of this game starts with you choosing to sit next to a black or white student in class. if you choose the black student, the first thing she says is 'hi, i'm estrella, and yes I'm from Africa." lmao the tone deafness and how horribly bad that is is just laughable. she goes on to say that she's in a wild tribe and asks you if you have a problem with it. devs, it's 2021. there is no excuse to be this ignorant and self-unaware. do better. uninstalled in 6 minutes.
Well, what can I say? The story moves so fast the flash could not keep up with it; your choices do not matter; it is a Harry Potter ripoff, and the battle system is useless. Does the game have good points? yes. Almost every kid character is cute, and almost all adult characters are good to look at. The art is simply gorgeous. This game is the opposite of Academagia; while that game has wonderful writing and a terrible interface, this one has shallow writing and a gorgeous interface. It just lacks so much stuff that I cannot recommend it.
