Incredible game
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.
好玩 除了官中太垃圾 推理很过瘾

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。
优点 相当有趣的填词解密小游戏,把一个长线悬疑故事分割为数个精巧独立但又互相联系的推理小故事,玩家在不断破解案件的同时又能渐渐领悟整个事件的隐秘真相,很有爽感 缺点 中文大概率是机翻,很多人名并没有统一格式和称呼,中文填词语法照搬英文逻辑,相当影响填词环节的阅读理解
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
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.
One of my all time favourite games - along with all its DLCs (and the sequel). Excellent attention to detail - great storytelling - would definitely recommend!
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
Excellent storytelling. Rich Lore (Conspiracies!) Challenging but highly rewarding to figure things out. A MUST PLAY if you are a fan of detective stories and games.
