Une demo à 1€ ... Mais c'est propre
OK, I cannot decently ask for a refund of a game under 1€. But I would be pleasantly surprised, should the game decide to grow in its shoes... Godspeed!
As long as you go in with proper expectations this game is well worth its absurdly cheap price tag. It is short, about 30 - 45 minutes including the new second island. But it's well put together, has fun co-op, and shows great promise. I'm looking forward to Runelock Island once it comes out and am happy i could support this team during its development! Though maybe a longer weapon would be appreciated haha
not bad games way to short tho 1 dungeon
O jogo é tão long quanto é caro, custa só R$ 2,29 e dura só 18 min. Terminei em 18 min porque explorei a ilha antes de entrar na unica masmorra que tem, e alem disso, explorei a masmorra inteira. O que esse jogo diz para mim é que o desenvolvedor estava testando suas habilidades para saber como que o publico iria reagir a ele, e deu certo, o jogo é muito bom para o que o jogo é, agora só falta o desenvolvedor fazer um jogo mais longo, aonde possamos fazer upgrade do personagem conforme vamos progredindo, pegando itens novos, e que seja mais caro do que R$ 2,29. Vale a pena comprar? Vale, é curto, menos de 20 min de experiencia, mas é um bom jogo. Edit: I just played the second island, and it's better than the first. The island is bigger, there are more NPCs, there are more enemies with different mechanics, we have items inside the dungeon like map and compass, there's a new boss with different mechanics and attack patterns. Everything you want to see in a expansion, this is the second island. I showed to my friend, he thought weird the game be too cheap because of how well made the graphics and sprites are, how great the variety of enemies and items. The second island is a bit longer, I would say the first island is 20 minutes and the second 30 minutes, but this game is still great.
超お手軽ゼルダみたいな感じのゲームです。 日本語対応ではあるのですが、導入シナリオの翻訳が少し変だったりします。 [h1]早い・安い・微妙[/h1] ・2025/05現在、2つの島があるのですがどちらも10分ちょっとで終わります。 →島のクリア毎にタイトル画面へ戻されるので、セーブも不要です (1つの島が10分ちょっとで終わるため、そもそもセーブ出来たのか不明) ・ゲーム内でお金が手に入るのですが、ダンジョンが短すぎるので使い道ないです。 →道中回復アイテム結構手に入るうえに、被ダメージも低いので戻る必要がないです。 ・武器は剣、ブーメラン、爆弾の3種類! →私は爆弾は数回しか使いませんでした。剣でゴリ押せばどうにかなります。 因みに途中で魔力回復薬みたいなのが手に入りますが、そもそも魔法が無いので使い道がありません。 2つの島のクリアで20分ちょっとなので「100円だしちょっと暇つぶしにやってみようかな」ぐらいの感覚でやるのはアリだと思います。
En verdad no duro nada xD me sentí timado pero el juego esta bien, deberían poner una guía donde están los controles por que me toco buscar tecla por tecla, Ademas que aumentarle mas niveles o hacer mas grande el mapa, crear nuevas ruinas y mas contenido. Yo se que no pague casi nada por este juego, pero de igual forma deberían modificar su nivel de dificultad y que tenga mas niveles o mas contenido en el mapa.
El juego es un Zelda clásico/Zelda: A Link to the Past simplificado en 2 ¨islas¨ cada una con su respectiva mazmorra y boss. Cada isla te puede durar aproximadamente 30 minutos (para que os podáis hacer una idea del contenido que os encontrareis) el precio base es de 80 céntimos para lo que es esta bien. Si os gusta este tipo de juego es completamente recomendable. Al principio el juego solo venia con una isla y la segunda la añadieron con una actualización gratuita. Y la verdad que el boss de la actualización esta muy bien. No me importaría pagar de nuevo por un par de islas nuevas y contenido, pero estaría bien que fuese el doble de largo con puzzles y demás. Espero que el desarrollador de mas soporte porque de verdad la base del juego me encanta.
o jogo é bonitihno e bem feito mas nem fizeram o jogo tem duas fases com 4 cenários cada da pra jogar 30 minutinhos
Esta bueno. Dura poco pero que esperan por 1 dolar? jajajaja
