TUNIC

i want to love this but the boss design is not working for me. everything else is wonderful.

Jogo é sensacional !! Cada passo é uma descoberta que te deixa admirado com algo que vai te surpreender. Os puzzles são legais ao ponto de entusiasmar a sempre jogar mais. Com certeza esta na lista dos jogos mais legais que ja joguei.

8/10 Une super aventure rempli d'énigmes !

Tunic no es otro clon de Zelda, es una carta de amor a la nostalgia y a la vez innova como ningún otro juego ha hecho en muchos años. Desde la historia, hasta las mecánicas pasando por el diseño de niveles y los múltiples secretos, están hechos con mimo y el amor a los videojuegos como baluarte. No te dejes engañar por su apariencia, esconde mucho más de lo que parece...

Mixed feeling about this game. A Zelda-like and Souls-like game should be exactly my type of game, but it left a slightly bad taste in my mouth after finishing the game after 9.5 hours. It all boils down to: - Bosses are very spongy, their AI often breaks if backed into a corner - Very few weapons and upgrades. I think there are only 5 perma upgrades, 2 meelee weapons (one of them being borderline unusable) and a handful of spells. - Puzzles are made for toddlers - Combat in general is very basic, single attack button. Then you can either dodge or block. That's it. Still enjoyable, love the instruction booklet, the artstyle and the exploration.

CONTRADICTION ! The best way NOT to make a game : cute design with punitive mechanics EVERYWHERE : hidden main pathways from game start, strong enemies with 3 different mechanics on level one. I get the cryptic language choice, i think it is the best part of the game, with the art direction. Difficulty curve is why this game never blossomed to a larger audience (and never will) : Devs thoughts they were really bright. Elite. We are SO FAR WAY from why Nintendo is so good at making games.
