The Order of the Snake Scale

I really enjoy the game: the plot and the atmosphere, interesting mechanics, the music adds to the climate. Kind of brings me back to Alone in the Dark days back in the 90's :D

Jest git, dobrze robią

Grafika zdecydowanie nie w moim typie ale gra jako całość ma w sobie jakiś klimat. Jak ktoś grał w starego residenta to do sterowania szybko się przyzwyczai.

Tried it two times. Made it to a total gametime of 15 minutes. Though I´m a Lovecraft-fan, I can´t bear the insanity of the controls. Maybe a good game if you can get beyond this. Don´t know.

1 part point and click, 1/2 part Resident Evil tank controls, 2/7ths first person shooter, a dash of cyberpunk, a dram of cosmic horror(?) and as many chances to get stopped on a portruding bit of scenery as you can handle and you have Order of the Snake Scale. Played on an Xbox controller. What you need to know. 1. You've come to a small town to investigate the death of a young woman and will do very little of that. 2. Check the controls before you play. You HAVE A FLASHLIGHT. Use it. 3. You are a cyborg but you will regret not getting leg implants because you will be walking a lot. 4. As with most adventure games you need to find a object you can pick up to use on an object you cannot. 5. Search every area VERY thoroughly. Just because you have the shavings of cat hair doesn't mean you should run back to the mustache maker right away. Because tucked out of sight behind the pile of cat hair is bottle of bourbon you will need to give to a worker so he quits his job, so you can tell his supervisor that, so his supervisor can go after him, leaving his security card unattended on the table that you can't take while he's there because he yells at you cybog cop man working for the government that owns literally everything including the biomass factory you are currently inside. 6. Tank controls. Awkward tank controls. 7. Fixed camera position. Keep your gun out at most times so you can see from a first person perspective for about 3/5ths of the screen. ALSO, stuff you can interact with will usually emit lines you can see while in this perspective. 8. Why yes I did brute force the X,Y emergency lock puzzle thank you very much. 9. SURVIVAL HORROR. Seriously make every shot count. I ended the game with 2 bullets, 1 health, and no healing items. Contoller aiming is not mouse aiming. It's not bad. It's not polished. It's frustrating at times, because, like most adventure games, it screeches to a halt every time you miss an item, and end up scouring the entire game. Or looking up one of the very few youtube playthroughs of the game because their is no walkthrough, thank you Sater. Devs, make the puzzle pieces obvious, or have multiple ways to solve a puzzle. Inventory can have multiple uses. As opposed to your shovel vanishing after digging up one shallow grave. This would also be a great way to include the characters cybernetic eye.

This is a hidden gem to me. I loved the writing and the plot. the combat is satisfactory i'd call it. I did find myself using the red eye to move around more then the 3rd person over world static camera after a while. The atmosphere and music is wonderful and fit greatly with the mood. It would be nice if there was a few points to fast travel from one side of the map to the area but other then that. This game really reminded me of old point and click adventure style games more then anything. It was a fun adventure.

Horrible controls, lighting and the camera movement actually makes you feel sick.

Un survival horror de corte clásico pero con mecánicas no se si únicas pero que he visto poco en los videojuegos. Su ambientación sonora y diseño de escenarios bien, enemigos solo 3 tipos y muchos para la poca munición que dan y los puzles en general bien, me han gustado. Lo malo que he visto fue * la hitbox del personaje con muchos objetos del entorno, * los golpes a mano seca son muy malos, hacía falta una buena arma melé como cuchillo o palo, lo que sea. * al ser un juego en inglés tenía mucho texto el cual se entendía algunas cosas pero otras si o si necesitaba traducirlo y eso quieras o no te quita de ambiente. * hay 3 maneras de curarte pero todas te curan un solo puntito, cuando un botiquin en cualquier survival te cura por completo o al menos dos o tres veces mas que una jeringa normal. Así y todo me lo he podido pasar completa a la parte 1, esperaré a ver que hacen con la parte 2, si necesitas una guia en español lo tengo subido completo en youtube con todo el juego resuelto, con sus puzles y objetos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34d_8CjQvmg&t=10132s

Me costo entenderlo al principio y luego le agarre el ritmo, me gusto, me quede enganchado con la historia mientras iba resolviendo puzzle, me gusto tambien que con el tabulador se ponga el visor rojo y puedas encontrar pistas pero tambien me jugo en contra porque pensaba que marcaba todos los objetos para interactuar, pero no, Solo marca algunos. Me costo encontrar lugares como la parte trasera de la industria donde se consigue el conector ( a la derecha del doctor muerto al cual hay que sacarle el ojo) porque no me daba cuenta donde estaba la puerta ya que se camuflaba mucho con el entorno, lo mismo en la parte dentro del laboratorio donde hay que encontrar el pendrive para luego meterlo en la PC y ver el codigo, encontre el pasillo con el cadaver de pura casualidad y el puzzle de Y=0 y el X=0 lo saque con IA, xq no lograba entenderlo, lo hubiera disfrutado mas si estuviera en español, pero entiendo que no es prioridad ahora, Me gustaria que halla un par de armas como escopetas o armas mele, porque una vez q te quedas sin balas es dificil (se puede encontrar muchas ya lo se, pero yo anduve frustrado y disparaba al aire xD)

save ammo as much as you can
