The Mermaid Mask

Meh on all fronts. Story is some mundane mystical-not-mystical detective or whatever. Puzzles are illogical ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, which better be stripped from the game altogether. Detective parts with deductions necessarily involve brute forcing every option. What do they wanted to make I don't know, in actuality it is some human-made slop.

Маска Вид the game

It's charming and fun, the characters are all lovely and the chemistry between the protagonists is great, they're so much fun

So, for this type of game, the thing is simple: I take the day off. It detaches me from reality so bad, and it makes me all dizzy and confused. Maybe the lack of hydration, maybe the lack of food, idc, the game has to be completed. You then know it is a good game. Now, for actual feedback: Technical: the audio mixing of the dialogues is crap, with characters speaking softly, then getting a loud answer, in spite of it not being meant to be that way. Then, the compass mini-game was buggy, not that it wasn't confusing to begin with. Also, some UI elements overlap in not amazing ways on squarer screens. I am sure that those are all problems that the studio will fix at some time, given their track record, but it still needs a mention. Oh, and if it warms you up, I have played this on a Mac. Story-wise, there were some things that have annoyed me, the most notable being the inconsistency in the time setting. Now I understand that it is a completely made-up universe, but it doesn't sit right with me that there are decently advanced mobile phones, yet they are basically owned by nobody. At the same time that modern movies exist, old-school manual projectors are also there. Submarines somehow still use compasses and maps made by quirky steampunk inventors. And there are both victorian-era letters and glossy tabloid magazines being written at the same time. The anachronism is not cute here, it just makes the world harder to understand, and is not excused in any way by the story (serves no functional purpose). The inclusion of modern tech is simply jarring, to be perfectly fair. Compared to Tangle Towers, it is basically the same kind of game of the same quality. It is not better or worse. The only tangible difference is the 3D clues, which weren't that huge of a deal, to be fair. And by comparing them what I want to say is that they are both amazing games that you should buy now.

muito bom, fiquei chocada com o final, não estava esperando. Ela tem razão sobre a sabedoria, mas gostaria de ter tido um detalhamento da parte após a bussola concertada.

Fun, challenging at times but just look up guides to help on like 2 of the puzzles that really make no sense (the final key/lighthouse puzzle makes no sense)

탱글타워보다 더 재밌어짐 다음 편 빨리 나왔으면 좋겠음..
