买之前:天啊这个画风是什么鬼给人不想玩的感觉呢 打通redux正传后:画面才是真的神 呜呜呜我上哪去找代餐
作为以某种 *科学* 的形式引入适量超自然元素的 *本格推理* 游戏,The Case of the Golden Idol 无疑是极其优秀的。Bug 或有人眼中的 feature 在于,和 [spoiler] Disco Elysium [/spoiler] 一样,尝试用 [spoiler] 人类欲望 [/spoiler] 解构 [spoiler] *历史上* 已经失败了的左翼运动 [/spoiler] ,第二次玩到最后遇到这种试图引向荒诞的手法,这件事本身也很荒诞了... 但不得不承认推理做得足够好,因此还是推荐尝试。另外条件允许的情况下建议用英语玩,用词和行文有巧思。

——体量不大的解谜游戏,目前3.6h打完了本体【还没打重启版】。剧情很优秀,环环相扣,打完再回看前半部分会恍然大悟,但是不建议原价买,30以下可以入。 ——对全成就党又好又坏的,跟着流程走就能解锁全部成就,但是dlc成就也算在全成就内......而且dlc全买也不算便宜,主要问题还是游戏体量太小,流程太短。 ——是把完形填空这种游戏方式发扬光大的典范【这么说对吗(?´•ω•`)】。但是官中很不友好,建议去指南打汉化补丁。 下面是一些剧情细节,防剧透: [spoiler] ——第一次觉得自己脸盲那么严重,一开始确实怀疑过埃德蒙德是不是假死,但是改名变年轻后完全没认出来...直到第四章新秩序的时候,还纳闷为什么玛丽的书里为什么有埃德蒙德的信。皮特也是傻人有傻福,作为一个不怎么重要的配角,能一路青云直上住豪宅娶自己喜欢的人,还把自己老舅一炮轰死了,完全人生赢家啊...但是玛丽好惨,没有嫁给自己喜欢的人皮特从一开始就赌博,到最后也没改掉。 [/spoiler] [spoiler] ——还有一些小细节,我一开始还好奇为什么有的人有红宝石戒指,还以为是贵族的着装礼仪 |・ω・`) 直到兄弟会那里突然反应过来戒指是信物。到尾声的时候在兄弟会名单上看到塞巴斯蒂安的时候也很纳闷,记忆中他没有红宝石戒指【事实证明记忆出错了ww】回到第一章再看他房间的时候发现尊兽的面具就在他的床头上挂着,顿时冒了一身冷汗... [/spoiler]
어린 시절 상상을 실현하고 싶어하는 인물이 많네요
总体playthrough很流畅,解题的过程本身就是提示,好评。玩的时候没太注意人名,最后才发现所有章节都串了起来,是个不错的故事
Sighhh okay so this is a bit of a mixed review. The game's great, I really liked the music, and the style, and it was pretty funny at times. The direction the story takes halfway through was unexpected but sure, I rolled with it. The main mechanic of solving the cases was also quite neat, especially in moments where the word you're missing is not reachable as easily as most of them (e.g. the horse running outside). What I have a problem with, however, is, yes, partially my fault, but [spoiler]if you have not picked up on Cloudsley being Lazarus prior to the last case, it is SUCH a guessing game.[/spoiler] It left me confused after I "solved" it, and while the epilogue explained everything, I feel like the whole latter half is less "find out how the murder was committed" and more "recreate the events that happened", which may not seem that different, but I really thought I was tapping into a [i]detective[/i] game. Another pet peeve of mine is that this game has Steam achievements for the DLC cases. I'm not planning to buy any due to how iffy the main game left me feeling, so being robbed of the blue ribbon is just unpleasant. Overall, I'd say it's a good game, but you gotta temper your expectations and be prepared for it to lightly tug at the rug under your feet.
One of my all time favourite games - along with all its DLCs (and the sequel). Excellent attention to detail - great storytelling - would definitely recommend!
A good short (5-8 hours with DLC) mystery game for fans of such as Obra Dinn, Type Help, or The Roottrees Are Dead. It's well constructed, in that all the evidence is there -- there are no flying leaps of logic -- although some of the DLC levels present you with dozens of keywords and giant walls of text to fill in like a Wheel of Fortune game from hell. I played the Redux version the whole way through and had no bugs or other problems. There are so many typos though, it's pretty hilarious. Given how short it is, it'd have been a little upsetting to pay full price for this, but at the sale price I feel like I got my money's worth.
好玩 除了官中太垃圾 推理很过瘾
A fun adventure game if not a bit hard towards the end with how cryptic and long the messages get. The lore and story building were really great and I liked how the DLC was a prequel.
