Saucer-Like

It's honest. It doesn't pretend, which can't be said for the overwhelming majority of other games. You are preparing for a ritual for our village. Not preparing as in - go there, fetch this, go here, fetch that, but with a meaning. It feels like you're actually participating. Everything - from copulating with a forest spirit to dragon encounter - feels like a big deal, which it is. Saucer-like feels geniune. Play it if you're tired of plastic stuff.

Very beautiful art and atmosphere, interesting and thought-provoking story. It's kinda confusing though... kinda (but only a little bit) spoilery bit follows: [spoiler]I did everything I needed for the individual ritual and then apparently also something needed for the community ritual (which I didn't know it would decide my path this way?), but I ended up with the community ritual ending, despite basically doing both paths. I think it could be easily avoided if the game was more straightforward; I understand it's supposed to be more of ''figure it out yourself as you go'' type of thing, but then it shouldn't decide for you.[/spoiler] Also, the English translation desperately needs some proofreading, and it also adds to the confusion at times. I'm still going to give this one a thumbs up though, as I got it in a ridiculous sale and I liked the overall melancholic tone, the art style and the message.

Comment peut-on laisser sortir un jeu avec une traduction aussi affreuse ?? C'est à peine compréhensible et devient très vite désagréable. Quant à la fin... eh ben je ne vous la racontrais pas, j'ai arrêté au bout de 15min. Je déconseille, à moins d'une mise à jour des textes (un meilleur résultat aurait été obtenu avec Google traduction) car l'image est belle et l'histoire semble interessante.

这似乎是一个西班牙人开发的和风点击解谜游戏，游戏似乎没有中文译名，直译过来应该是……“形状像碟子”？？？ 游戏画面很柔和，虽不是特别精细但也很好看。游戏的BGM很配这个画面，但是说不上好听，而且听起来有一种难以形容的怪怪的感觉，但还不至于让人听着感觉很不舒服。 游戏自带中文，听汉化组说游戏是开发商机翻成英文，再把英文交给汉化组汉化，所以有些语句读起来会有点怪。游戏的剧情看得我云里雾里，但我感觉这不全是机翻英文的锅，而是游戏本身就有些很深的寓意，但是我没能理解出来。汉化组真的尽力了，把机翻英文汉化的很好，读起来很通顺，那些古籍也都翻译成了对仗的诗，这就是传说中的信达雅吧。 至于游戏的剧情，似乎讲的是[spoiler]这个村子有一个世代相传的仪式，这些村民世代住在这里，然后村民们赖以生存的森林和水什么的每过一定时间之后就会毁灭，然后就需要在毁灭之前举行一个仪式，牺牲几个村民来延续森林的生命，从而延续下这个时代。就是很类似《黑暗之魂》里的传火，只不过这个游戏是传树。而主角就是这个传树的人之一。但是这个流程很短的游戏无法像黑魂一样把世界观说的这么清楚，全程只详细讲述了仪式的内容，但为什么森林每过一段时间就会终结，这个仪式是如何诞生的，为什么主角几个变成树了森林就没事了，这些都没有说清楚。[/spoiler]并且在游戏的商店页面介绍中，说这个游戏“映射了人在社会中扮演的角色”，不过我什么都没有感悟出来，而且因为游戏太小众，网上也没有剧情解析之类的…… 不过游戏的解谜部分做的还是很不错的，有些地方需要好好动脑筋，实在想不出来社区也有指南。就算无法理解游戏深度的内涵，纯当一个解谜游戏来休闲也是很不错的。值得入手。

Un bug gigante me tranco el juego y la verdad no lo esperaba...

No es que sea un mal juego, de hecho, me ha gustado bastante el estilo de los fondos, pintados a mano...sin embargo, no puedo recomendar el juego porque me parece demasiado profundo para mi gusto. Es cierto que puede parecer un poco superficial decir algo así, pero es que es demasiado espiritual, hablan con demasiadas parábolas y acaba siendo un juego, en mi opinión, bastante confuso. La complejidad del juego no es demasiado, de hecho, te diría que si hablas con todos los personajes, y sigues la lista "de tareas" que te dan, apenas tienes pérdida. El único puzzle que me parece más complicado, creo que de hecho se trata de una mala traducción, porque incluso adivinando lo que hay que hacer y cómo, no me cuadra la explicación y acabas teniendo que mirar alguna guía...y sigue sin cuadrarme...aunque tampoco es lo importante. Como digo, aquí lo importante se supone que es la trama, profunda y existencialista, pero a mi parecer, un poquito demasiado. He jugado aventuras similares, también basadas en antiguos ritos o costumbres, pero esta no me ha acabado de enganchar. Demasiado breve para cogerle cariño al personaje, metido muy de repente en lo que tienes que hacer, apenas sin contexto...haces la lista de tareas y se acabó. En definitiva, no es mal juego, pero no me parece algo lo suficientemente destacable como para recomendarlo.

Saucer-like is a short and rather easy point-and-click where you follow a young man from a secluded village choosing his path in life. My final feeling about the game is positive, the artwork and feelings conveyed are what sticks with me. For the low price, I'd say it's worth it. pros: - Absolutely beautiful painted artwork. - Interesting story with tranquil, serene storytelling, if you can enjoy spiritual themes and such (if you're looking for something action-packed to wow you, this isn't the game). - Multiple endings, always appreciated. - Agreeable soundtrack. cons: - Questionable translation: spelling mistakes! Some people don't mind but this irked me. "Its" was systematically replaced by "it's". And at some point you'll get an information talking about west, I'll tell you right now and save you some time: they meant east. Also I get the feeling that the title must've meant something in the original version but in english it's just... what? - Slooooooow walking speed with no "double click exit" gets a little unnerving, especially in side-scrolling areas.

游戏的画风很清奇，但剧情完全没看明白，另外翻译看起来这么别扭是因为这游戏英文是机翻的，貌似游戏最开始是德语的主语言，想好好理解剧情只能去看看德语了，虽然我是不懂的……

This game is beautiful. Well paced and stylistically amazing. It's short. Really short. but I love it.

Bom jogo. Achei curtinho, mas bem feito. Um jogo desses merecia mais destaque. Não sei onde consegui, mas vale a pena.
