Spider: Rite of the Shrouded Moon

I'm Lachlan official Aussie and I rate this game good. 10/10 VB's

i love the spider and all the things u can do

The game is fun and simple. The Moon phase/weather conditions are offputting though. This isn't Animal Crossing, I don't like coming back to games I like to beat them when I'm ready to play. But that is more my problem than the game's. Still a thumbs up.

Spider: Rite of the Shrouded Moon by Tiger Style is a third-person game where you are a spider. (Warning for those with arachnophobia...but you are a small and cute spider.) Your goal is to spin webs, eat insects, explore, and maybe solve the mysteries on the Blackbird Estate. I heard about this game as some Looking Glass Studios designers worked on it. This is a fun game, but your investment level will depend on how much of a completionist you are and if you're more into catching insects or solving puzzles. The controls of Spider are simple. You move with WSAD, jump with the left mouse button, jump with silk with the right mouse button, and zoom out with Z. That's pretty much it! But Spider offers a number of different incentives--there's a board listing all the insects you've eaten, online leaderboards showing high scores on each map, secrets inside the maps, lots of achievements, and mysteries to solve in each area of the estate that will unlock a new spider species. Spider also has four different weather settings (clear day, rainy day, clear night, or rainy night) that can match your real-time weather. (I disabled the weather location and online leaderboards and am not a completionist.) Eating insects nets you points and increases your silk thread count. The mysteries remind me of old-school games like Myst where, unless you have a fantastic memory, you really need to write things down on pen and paper. There's also an assumed knowledge base--the first mystery requires reading treble clef musical notation. Normally I don't like replaying maps multiple times, but since most of the maps are short and there are different weather cycles that lead to a different insect populations, I didn't mind it as much...at first. The game shows you which maps you've missed things in with a question mark by your score instead of a check mark. Spider looks great with many details that are easy to miss. The level and insect design is also strong, with a variety of locations and species, and sound effects fit well. There are only a few insects that attack you, but those red wasps can be frustrating! You can die, either from running out of silk and not eating or environmental traps, but you just restart the level. On the negative side, the music is an unpleasant surprise. I'm used to it now, but I did not like it at first and didn't feel like it fit the game. Moving from a web onto another surface often isn't as smooth a transition as I'd like. It's also easy to get turned around on what 'right' means in a specific instance since you can walk on ceilings, walls, or anything except glass; level transitions don't help as they sometimes change your location (for instance, from the ceiling to the floor). I thought Spider would be one of those 'play 1-2 levels and then do something else' games, but I found myself playing for up to an hour straight. However, once I unlocked all areas, replayed a few levels at different times of day, and solved three of the six mysteries over my 12 hours of game time, I just lost interest and haven't started the game in weeks.

Netze bauen, Insekten fangen, Punkte sammeln, weitere Geheimnisse und Levels freischalten. Ein Puzzlegame der anderen Art mit liebevoller Optik. Optional kann man auch das Wetter dem eigenen Standort anpassen, ein nettes Gimmik. Kostet nur 10 Euro und ist eine pure Abwechslung zu konventionellen Puzzlegames.

Be a spider! Solve the mystery! Cool little spider themed puzzler. Early levels are pretty easy, but the later ones require some strategy. Don't run out of silk! There's different species to unlock. Graphics are artsy. Music is different.

I am not advanced on this game, but really like it.

Petit jeu vraiment très sympathique !

Fun spider gameplay but very difficult puzzles
