About
“The Book Of Hiro - Prologue” is a 3D visual puzzle game developed by two independent developers. Players help Hero embark on an adventure to the palace, using illusions and perspective to solve puzzles and explore the magical world in this book.
The game features innovative visual puzzles that are imaginative and visually stunning. The innovative visual illusion finding gameplay involves moving the viewing angle, clicking, and other operations to find the hidden “key” pattern in the picture. Each puzzle solved can advance the plot and provide a unique gaming experience and visual impact.
The game features a simple and fresh 3D low-poly style that is full of childlike innocence while meticulously depicting the different scenes in the story. The game’s soothing and distant music complements the graphics to create a mysterious visual pop-up book.
The game features shiny gold coins, ordinary keys, hammers, gears, and other objects that are common but difficult to find due to the game’s unusual mechanics. Players must make bold guesses and not be fooled by seemingly unrelated images. They must carefully observe and remember that what they see is not necessarily what they get!
The game features an energetic and art-inspired storybook style. Behind the seemingly ordinary protagonist’s travel story is a hidden plot and an extraordinary experience. The game includes a main storyline and hidden endings waiting for you to explore.
The game is still in the intense development stage. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to join our DISCORD channel for discussion

The Book Of Hiro - Prologue Прекрасный пазл, если не считать шакального перевода, задерживания сцены во время обучающего текста, и глюка из-за которого отвалился триггер на сопоставление силуэта в самом начале, из-за чего я тупо не смог даже обучение пройти. И судя по форуму такой баг ни у одного меня. Как итог: шикарная игра, не рекомендую.

"The Book Of Hiro - Prologue" is not a game. It's an advertisement for a product called "The Book of Hiro". The Book of Hiro is a simple puzzle game designed for mobile phones but dumped on Steam instead (probably because Google and Apple rejected it... they have quality control where Valve has Steam Direct). All you do in the app is spin a little scene around and tap on your iPhone screen to solve the simple puzzles. No serious value as a real game. But this isn't completely relevant because this is not The Book of Hiro, it's just an advertisment for it, so it's not correct to try to review that completely distinct product. We must instead review this for what it is... an advertisement. If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on Youtube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising. It's impossible in a general sense to recommend people should do that over playing real, full games on Steam, and that applies here with "The Book Of Hiro - Prologue" too. The purpose of this advertisement is to get you to shell out a whopping $3 USD on buying The Book of Hiro, and I don't recommend you do that either. This is effectively a mobile app... it doesn't matter if this was ported to PC before or after the app store release, or even if this never even makes it to the app stores. This is built for the absolutely lowest of all gaming platforms and must be judged as such... it's not going to give you a cutting edge PC gaming experience. That alone is enough to disqualify this from any recommendation. We don't spend thousands building gaming rigs so that we can pretend they're iPhones and play iPhone games and mobile apps. As an advertisement, this is only free in the same way that adverts on Youtube and banner ads in your browser are. This is a game demo that's been dumped on Steam to advertise another Steam store page in the hopes of raking in some cash. Just because advertisements are free, doesn't mean they're worth your time. It's important to understand there's a formal process to create a demo/page for a game which hasn't been followed here: https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/application/demos While it might seem like an inocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful. This advertisement is taking up marketing space and visibility that would be better made available to a developer that's done the right thing and created a full game. Instead, that visibility is given over to a demo/advert that's been published incorrectly and is polluting the marketplace. It's unclear if this mistake was made through incompetence or a deliberate intent to mislead gamers. Often developers may choose to incorrectly publish demo/advertisements as separate games as a cheap way to bypass paying Valve for marketing presence on the Steam front page, which may seem clever to them, but it's harmful behaviour and it's not good for gamers. Despite having no up-front cost, this failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at just a dozen or so concurrent players, and now there's basically nobody playing it. Even though it's free. This is a dismal public reception, but it's easy to see why gamers rejected it. Advertisements and incorrectly published demos don't add +1 to your game collector count, they aren't full games. It's impossible for me to recommend this incorrectly published advertising spam to gamers, you deserve better than adverts.

Окунитесь в волшебную сказку, вместе с Всезнающим Рассказчиком! Узнайте, с чего началась история мальчика Хиро. [list][b]Понравилось:[/b] [*]+ Доступность: Пролог бесплатен [*]+ Локализация на несколько языков, в том числе и на русский [*]+ Простое управление с помощью мыши [*]+ Яркая графика [b]Не понравилось:[/b] [*]- Отсутствие настроек графики [*]- Машинный перевод [*]- Малоинформативные подсказки [*]- Отсутствие подсветки интерактивных зон[/list] [b]Вывод:[/b] Небольшая головоломка, в которой игрокам предстоит исследовать книгу Рассказчика. Геймплей игры довольно прост - игрокам необходимо находить определенные предметы, используя пространство и перспективу - чтобы объект смог материализоваться для его использования. Хоть в "The Book Of Hiro - Prologue" и присутствует "Подсказка" - она довольно мало информативна и работает только в случае поиска предмета по чертежу. Если же Вы собрали предмет и не знаете, куда его применить - подсказка не появится. Как и подсветка к активным, или интерактивным зонам на карте. Игра могла бы стать интересным проектом для детей, но из-за сложности в поиске - может стать головной болью для родителей. В данном прологе игрокам доступно обучение и первая страница Книги Хиро, в которой главный герой только начинает свой путь приключений.
新手关,眼睛都快贴屏幕上了,都让游戏自动给我对了,光圈还是对不上。 服了,我们玩家不行,精度配不上你。 旁白都像是嘲讽,音乐也变得刺耳。 等bug修复了来改差评,再见。
overall alright for free.
教程关就劝退,线索死活贴合不了
想法很好,画面和配音也满分,但是图形感应太不宽容了,新手关拖半天感应不上,根本没法玩。 很崩溃,要是感应和旁白一样慈祥就好了.
· 还可以,不过玩法重复,有些单调了,几次找不到容易浮躁(虽然有提示) · 是个简单上手、中规中矩的小游戏啦~没太大深度,休闲的那种 · 可惜只能给出推荐或不推荐的评价,其实我更倾向于给一个中肯的评价,推荐一下当做支持了 拜托啦~我真的很需要点数啊喂QAQ~
Unfortunately it's a no from me. I encountered various issues that made it more irritating than relaxing and overall wasn't a great experience. I think the game developer had the right idea, it just didn't come out as intended. The music audio is basically either blaring in your ears, or is off, there is no inbetween, the slider is basically just either 0% or 100-300% volume. Also some of the objects are very small in hitbox and are constantly moving, which makes it difficult to move them, not to mention that figuring out where to use them is completely random and illogical, and it makes it very difficult to enjoy. Overall, not recommended. This extends to the full version of the game as well.
