Untold Mystery: Angel's Cry 2 - Tears of the Fallen

Продолжительность игры, включая бонусную главу, составляет около 5 часов. Есть, конечно, довольно забавные игровые решения : как например, выкорчевать дерево,чтобы ... собрать под ним грибы ?!!! Но в целом порекомендовать к покупке данный " шедевр" могу, правда советую все же брать по скидке .

Ce Tears Of The Fallen est un Hidden qui ne paie pas de mine mais qui se révèle extrêmement agréable à faire... Votre personnage est envoyé par le Vatican dans un petit village nommé Portonero afin de mettre fin aux agissements de l'inquisiteur Ausgutin. D'emblée, je dois dire que le jeu affiche des décors vraiment agréables plein de détails avec des petits effets et ils sont colorés. Le développeur Cateia Games mélange dessin, 3D et texture réelle sans que tout cela devienne un gros patchwork... Et il n'y a guère que les animations faciales de certains pnj (Dolorès en particulier) qui dénotent quelque peu avec la qualité de l'ensemble. Mais à vrai dire cela reste anodin étant donné que l'histoire est agréable à suivre. Le doublage est lui même bien fait et ajoute un plus à l'ensemble. Et côté histoire, le jeu fait tout son possible pour vous donner un maximum d'informations afin de comprendre les tenants et les aboutissants et vous aurez même droit à quelques vidéos au cours du jeu qui prendront tout leurs sens vers la fin. Si sur le plan technique le jeu en impose face à d'autres éditeurs spécialisés, sur le plan gameplay, tout n'est pas aussi rose... Les SOC sont à mettre à part... Les objets sont bien disposés et parfaitement traduits lors de la recherche des éléments à trouver. On ne peut que regretter parfois un nombre trop important d'objets à trouver... Parfois trop c'est pire que pas assez... (Il est à noter que les SOC sont parfois avec une liste en forme d'ombres). C'est les puzzles qui sont pour moi, l'élément qui pêche dans le jeu. Si on peut constater une proportion égale avec les SOC, ils sont souvent à faire 3 fois d'affilé et cela peut devenir vite ch**** .... une fois ça va, deux fois c'est assez, trois fois c'est saoulant. Et parfois, c'est plus long avec certains mini-game tel que le tir à l'arc ou celui avec le lance pierre, qu'ils sont looooong ces mini-game... pas difficiles mais long... Personnellement, j'ai passé un bon moment avec ce Where Angels Cry: Tears Of The Fallen et son chapitre bonus (même si je trouve que celui-ci se raccroche pas mal aux branches pour venir s'implémenter dans l'histoire principale) et que malgré les lourdeurs en terme de gameplay, je garde au final un bon souvenir de celui-ci. Et pour finir, je tiens à préciser que, pour une fois, la traduction française est plus que correcte... et que cela fait du bien de temps en temps ^^

a nicely made HOG game that is worth playing. you do not need to play the first one for the story as it is a new story. pros. nice story good voice acting some challenging puzzles a bonus story with new locations decent game play time (2 hours 20 mins for the main story and 1 hour 10 for the bonus story) cons. rushed ending to be honest i liked the first one a bit more. but still i recommend playing this game. the developers put more efforts into this one :) i give it 6/10

Where Angels Cry is a routine mobile ported hidden object casual puzzle/adventure game with a historical/mystery theme. Solving various puzzles and hidden object minigames progresses the plot and unravels the mystery. As with most mobile ported HOGs, there's a simplistic interface, locked/unchangeable screen resolution, next to no customisability, and somewhat low resolution graphical assets. All of this puts this game below minimum standards for a contemporary PC game. It is nice that this game features some 3D animated components, but the locked screen resolution is still a killer. Once more we see greedy mobile devs trying to scam PC gamers. On Steam, this is $10 USD, on app stores, it's free. Mobile devs must learn PC gamers are not here to be gouged, and can't be expected to pay a premium for a free mobile game just because it's been lazily dumped on Steam. This is unacceptable disrespect for PC gamers. [quote][url=https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/reviews]Developer Response![/url][/quote]The developer has weighed in to inform everyone they didn't read the [url=https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/reviews]Developer Usage Rules[/url] for Steam "partners", or they deliberately ignored the part where Valve says: [quote]Though it may be tempting, not every review needs to be responded to. A developer response will frequently draw more attention than the original statement, potentially turning a small issue into a much larger community discussion. It's also not a good idea to use this feature to refute customer opinions. Your direct attention can be seen as validation or a defensive attempt to silence your customers.[/quote] The developer both acknowledges that this is a mobile app (confirming that fact of my review without doubt), but seems upset about me pointing that out to gamers. See, it doesn't matter what order the developer launched this mobile app on which platform, the fact is that it's a mobile app, has all the qualities of a mobile app, was designed for the lowest common denominator of gaming platforms, and thus compares poorly to games designed for PC. This is useful for gamers to know, which is why I include this important information in my reviews whenever I catch a developer dumping mobile trash on Steam. But we must ask why the developer is so upset about being confronted with facts they themselves confirm. Guilty conscience perhaps? Here's a confronting admission... the developer admits to predatory pricing for mobile gamers with bloated, pointless DLC and clickbait marketing... now, I'm an advocate for PC gamers and I've already explained why the developers disgusting and insulting pricing isn't acceptable on PC. But the admission they also try to screw over mobile gamers just cements the position here, you can see who we're dealing with. When confronted with this gamer hostile attitude from mobile app developers like this, it's absolutely clear why nobody should waste their money on their shoddy mobile apps on PC. Nothing in the developers pointless breach of Valve guidelines changes any of the objective facts of my review. My review stands unaltered. I cannot recommend this mobile app to anyone.

Full disclosure: I got this for a deep discount on the winter sale for around eighty cents USD, so that no doubt had some influence on my review. I'm not sure how much progress I've made, but I thought I'd write a quick review as there just don't seem to be that many here. First, the game is way better than the premise sounds. I don't mean that in a bad way, but it's closer to an action/adventure game than a standard HOG. Speaking of which, if you want a lot of hidden object scenes, you may be disappointed. You will be crafting things and a lot of them. But what hidden object scenes there are have been richly detailed with a little bonus at the end of one more things to do. The story is strong with this title, something I found to be a pleasant surprise. There are even collectible videos that explain the past and how our nemesis came to be. It even shows paganism in a kinder light than usual, though keep in mind the character you play is a priest during the Inquisition. He's going to act like it too, though he mostly seems sympathetic so far. I liked that the combat techniques were easier to grasp on this one than some other titles, and I'm still not used to saying that in a HOG. The other characters do have some uncanny valley uh, charm to them, but most seem good-hearted and to be actual fleshed-out characters. Also, any game with ravens and wolves in a positive light gets my vote. Downsides? A few times objects have been hard to see, though if you play on novice you can use the hint button to take care of that. There is a fair bit of back and forthing, and crafting objects. So it's closer to an action/adventure FROG, just so you know. Also, sometimes I'd go to pick up an object and it would refuse to budge, but moved just fine after I used a hint. And the hidden object scenes can use outlines instead of item names. I'm personally not a fan of that. Other than that, the controls can be a bit fiddly in game and using the fast travel map. Overall though, the game has great music and atmosphere. Just be prepared for a lot of side quests given to you by the NPCs. Also not used to saying that in a HOG either. Playtime 3.5 hours for the main game. ________________ Bonus Chapter While I enjoyed getting to play the antagonist for once, did a different team make this chapter? The first thing I noticed was the tendency to pad out the chapter. Objects I needed and should have appeared the first time didn't appear until needed with no logical reason not to. Also, I'm photosensitive, there was one area and hidden object area with flashing light. Yikes! Instant headache and I just kept swatting the hint button as each strobe blinded me. Seriously, there needs to be an option to turn that off. It was OK, but I honestly lost any empathy for the main game's antagonist about half way through. He went from being someone you could feel empathy for to, I don't know, he was kind of phoning in his motivation for revenge. Considering what he looks like in the main game and various hints, I was expecting something more diabolic. Also, there are no angels to be found in the game anywhere, fallen or otherwise. Kind of makes the title misleading. Playtime 1.5 hours
