Sunday Gold

fun little game, interesting narrative and art style, would play a sequel if ever made.

i'm genuinely surprised by the bad reviews, but i have not finished the game (only just really getting to the meat of it, at ~5.5 hrs, I think). i've rated 4.5 on backloggd. my review of sunday gold: + the animation, art, ui screens, and general aesthetic REALLY shines here. i genuinely lit up viewing the opening. + the point and click mechanics, along w/ the fact stamina is shared between exploration & battles is SO fun. + the voice acting!! amazing!! + a unique approach to the genre, making this game feel super fresh + plenty of secrets/easter eggs to discover: some quests are optional / you can find secret rewards / some mysteries can be solved multiple ways / fun lore to find + lovable (and dislikeable!) characters, engaging locations, and world-building I've never really seen before ~ it took me a few battles (and full team) to see the tactical appeal, which as a long-time tactical rpg enjoyer, is not bad. it's different, enjoyable, but at times tedious (esp waiting for some animations (like taunt) to complete every. single. time. maybe Ive missed an option to turn off battle animations?) (-) steamdeck controls suck. it's the only reason I haven't played more (yet) (-) the stress mechanic felt poorly implemented -- sometimes it'd trigger stress quick-time-events before the meter even reached a notch? (-) relatedly, the stress countdown is really annoying, esp after I turned on the quick-time accessibility in the settings. 5 seconds to choose a battle option on steamdeck feels awful overall, sunday gold is breath of fresh air. it carved out its own aesthetic & gameplay mechanics in the point & click/tactical rpg genre(s) that is both cohesive and quirky. I'll be keeping my eye on this team's future projects!

本来以为是赛博小混混大闹一场，原来是到处解密揭露阴谋，解谜太多了玩得累，个人不太喜欢

好

เกมบั๊ก คลิ้กอะไรไม่ได้เลย

[h1] 7.5/10 [/h1] Fun and engaging story between a memorable trio of criminals, reminds me of old school comedy heist movies with a striking art style and a British tone. only complain is that the ending feels rushed. overall a pretty decent game.

游戏前期还是很优秀的，但奈何虎头蛇尾的故事和后期又臭又长的战斗真是恶心坏了，12个小时起码2个小时都在打BOSS

Stay away from this game.

Das Spiel macht eine Menge Spaß, wenn man in den Kämpfen die unterschiedlichen Schwächen der Gegner beachtet und sich gut vorbereitet. Ich hätte fast im ersten Kapitel aufgegeben und das Spiel beiseite gelegt. Zum Glück nicht! Denn als ich den Dreh raushatte, hatte ich ein tolles Spielerlebnis. Viel Spaß mit diesem skurillen Point&Click-Erlebnis.

其实还不错，游戏风格很独特，比较分人。解密是真的便秘，还消耗行动力，几乎没什么容错，多休息几次就会招来敌人。不喜欢复杂解密慎买。
