The Dream of Shadowlands Episode 1

Pros: + Stylish and detailed art! + Good combat system. + Good story. + Decent voice acting and sounds. + Easy achievements. Cons: - Not many hints, might get stuck at times. I was drawn to this game from the gorgeous art style and it exceeded my expectations! It's a good game for relaxing to a story, but also some combat, puzzles, and exploration. I really love the creepy atmosphere. This game is absolutely "good horror without jumpscares."

good game!

I really like the art style and all the disturbing things in the game gives me the creeps but the good creeps (if that makes sense)

Fun game, I enjoyed it quiet a bit. There are parts where it makes you feel a little uneasy, and it fits right into the game. The puzzles are fun and legit took me a minute to figure it out cause I'm kinda dumb. The story is great and the whole thing kinda reminds me of what a bad fever dream would be like. I would recommend the game.

90年代アニメのような絵柄のホラーアクションRPG 呪いを受けてシャドウランドに来てしまった主人公Rinaと悪魔のJylが協力して女神ユレニカを探し、元の世界(ライトランド)へと帰るため冒険する、全5章からなる物語の第1章です。 言語は英語のみ、自分は英語が得意じゃないのでOCRソフトを駆使して翻訳しながらプレイしました。 シャドウランドには不気味な生き物も多く結構怖かったりもしましたが、主人公のRinaもプレイヤーと同様に怖がりつつも気丈に振る舞う姿がかわいかった。 それと、高いところから落ちそうになるところをJylが助けつつ頭をポカッと小突くところがとてもかわいく、こだわりを感じました。 エピソードの最後の方には[spoiler] 新キャラの悪魔が登場したり、Rinaが寝る前の会話で過去に因縁を持つことが明らかになったり [/spoiler]と、続きが非常に気になる展開で終わりました。 続編が待ち遠しい！！！

"The Dream of Shadowlands Episode 1" is not a game. It's an advertisement for a product called "The Dream of Shadowlands Episode 2". The Dream of Shadowlands Episode 2 is an incomplete series of "games" assembled rather poorly and with very weak gameplay and almost tolerable "anime" themed illustrations and animations, deadpan voice acting and very little interest from the general gaming public. The gameplay really is indistinguishable from something you might get out of Adobe Flash. But this isn't completely relevant because this is not The Dream of Shadowlands Episode 2, 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 Dream of Shadowlands Episode 1" too. The purpose of this advertisement is to get you to shell out four bucks for the other episode, and I can't recommend that, either. 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. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 3 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. 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.

一款恐怖解谜游戏。制作组预计发行5集，现在这个是第一集。 优点： 主角立绘好看 全程语音 操作简单 谜题设计还可以 缺点： 每次进入游戏前几次进新房间都会卡 存档点距离过远 战斗设计极其无聊，敌人根本打不死，主角会慢慢回血，所以完全不知道攻击和格挡的意义何在，跑路就完事了 第一个Boss追逐战速度过快，完全靠试错和背板 然后最关键的，游戏经常崩溃，我一个半小时崩了三次 Pros: Very well designed characters, in terms of personality and graphic Full voice-over Simple control okayish puzzle Cons: Framerate drops heavily when enter the first several rooms after you start a new game or load a saved game The checkpoints are far away from each other The combat system is meaningless, since your attack uses spiritual energy while you can't kill any monster at all and your health will regenerate slowly. So why not just walk away? The first boss moves too fast, and thus this scene become a pure trial-and-error process. Most importantly, the game crashes frequently, for me it was 3 times in 1.5 hours.
