6.4時間でようやく一回目のエンディング といってもその前やった時との期間が空きすぎていて一回リセットしたけど。 ノートや自分でとったメモをよく見ながら試行錯誤してコンピュータと会話し、謎を解き明かすゲーム。 一番の障壁は他の人も言っているとおり手書き(なぐり書き)の英文。 読んでいくうちに慣れるし、それだけ読んでいると文法や意味を見ず打ち込める Sethian語がかなりある。これが地味に楽しい。文字を打ち、返答が帰ってくるたび成長を実感できる。 SFと言語解読が好きならこれも好きだと思うけど難易度が高い。 けどじっくり考えて諦めなかったら大丈夫、たぶん。
Más bien que una reseña negativa es una reseña neutral, el tema del juego me encanta mucho y por eso mismo lo compre, porque me gustan los idiomas y los ejercicios de la olimpiada lingüística internacional son entretenidos, y esperaba que esto fuese parecido a esos ejercicios. El juego cuando lo entiendes es entretenido pero lamentablemente no hay muchas respuestas del ordenador por lo que no tienes mucho input sobre lo que puede significar un símbolo y puede llegar a ser frustrante, la mecánica del diario es necesaria ya que si no sería imposible el juego, creo que habría sido más entretenido que si en vez de ayudarse del diario se hubiese ayudado de imágenes para añadir contexto, aunque la parte del diccionario del final si que es necesaria y tal jjj La historia que cuenta el ordenador está bien

Okay, so I haven't ever finished this game, because it is HARD. But that is not a negative in my book. It is like actually discovering and translating a forgotten language. It requires a lot of brain power, does not hold your hand at all, and is not for everyone. However, it is still interesting to me, and I still pick it up in short bursts here and there when I can. I hope to finish it someday. But keep in mind if you buy this, it is not for people not invested in language learning. It's incredibly difficult. My only critique for this game would be I wish there was some way to keep track of what glyphs mean, or may mean, on the input page. Without it, it gets tedious to flip between pages of your journal. And since there is no way to take good notes in game, it can get confusing. I just used an actual irl notebook and it was fine, but it was still a bit annoying.
「宇宙人の言語を解読する」ゲームをやりたかったのですが、その前の「地球人のヘタクソな字を解読する」作業でメゲました。 記されている英語じたいはいまどき自動翻訳を使えばどうとでもなりますが、殴り書きのアルファベットを判別するのは今のところ人力でやるほかなく、そこにゲーム性はありません。
A masterpiece.

Pretty decent linguistic game
Steep learning curve. Horrible game design. Completely not worth this amount of money. I recommend Chants of Sennaar or Heaven's Vault if you want to play a game like this.
The game is very short, not really challenging, and Chants of Sennaar is better in every aspect. BUT I still love the concept of turning linguistics into a puzzle game. I love it. I simply cannot downvote this game.
流程比较短,而且自由度比较低,特别是后面的自由提问环节只可以问几个玄而又玄的概念,不是很满意;但是整体的氛围感很还原,从零学习一门新语言的也是一种新奇的体验,竞品不多,可以一试。
