Venice Deluxe

Un juegazo para pasar el rato, fácil de jugar pero que pone retos a medida que avanzas. La música es una genialidad y la ambientación del juego es un punto muy alto. Es una joya desconocida que debes jugar si tienes la oportunidad.

Great game to relax and spend your free time on!

All Pop Cap's games are just perfect. Easy to learn, "plug & play" but, with increasing difficulty and clear instructions before every new thing to learn. Intense rythm, you are always clicking the mouse, no time to rest. Original, they can be based on anything else but they do their own way and with outstanding imagination. The right difficulty at the right time, to maintain the interest. Variated play modes. Ridiculous simple controls, usually just the mouse and their two buttons, some times the arrows pad is also neeced but, that's all. Very good music and sound effects.... Well, if you already played Zuma, you know what I mean but, they have other interesting titles and this is one of them. Highly recommeded for casual tmes, when you are in a hurry and want to play just a bit or, for that "in between big games" time. ORIGINAL, AS PEEGLES. HIGHLY ADDICTIVE.

Venice is a puzzle game from casual game company PopCap. While the company is very familiar to many people, this game is not. It's a hidden gem on the PC platform, and it has a harsh difficulty curve. The game centers around Venice, Italy sinking into the waves, and it's up to you, as a random small-ish gondola, to save the treasures of Venice before all is lost. It's a better story than Bejeweled, but not exactly AAA writing. But, for what it needs to do, it sets the game up perfectly. If you've ever played Luxor or Zuma, the game controls essentially like that. Your objective is to match all of the shapes without letting any fall into the water below. This is where the game can and will screw you over multiple times, by placing nearly impossible trick shots that rely on pin-point timing and accuracy. It can get frustrating, but you feel a good sense of accomplishment after completing the level. The music is up to PopCap standards, as it fits the gameplay very well, and adds to the atmosphere. The visuals do the job, but show their age. Not too much to the point of looking bad, but enough to notice. I have a reoccuring problem with many of PopCap's games. It doesn't detect that my graphics card supports hardware acceleration, even though it does. I'm sporting an AMD Radeon HD 8240, and my old iBook G4 from 2005 supports hardware acceleration. I don't get it, but the game looks nice even without accelerated graphics. Overall, I give this game my Seal of Reccomendation. Pick it up if you want an obscure classic. I'm not responsible for any hardware-related damage you may inflict upon your system.

Easy point&shoot game with Venice as loose background. Hit targets above base shooter; difficulty varies but tactics easily learned. No pressure, can stop & restart at will. Good for relaxing & focusing on shooter & target with minimal stress.

Not the worst game in Popcap complete pack, but not recommended either. You shoot symbols from the bottom, hoping to hit a hole that matches. If you fail to catch a symbol that didn't meet any hole and gets bounced back, you fail. There are various powerups, but that's about all the diversity. Gets boring soon.

รีวิว Venice รูปแบบเกมก็ง่ายๆเลย ก็แค่ยิงสิ่งของ (แจกัน แหวน กุญแจ) ให้ตรงกับภาพ จนครบช่องเพื่อจบในแต่ละด่าน ซึ่งตรงนี้เราสามารถทำคอมโบต่อเนื่องได้ เพื่อเพิ่มคะแนนพิเศษ (เทคนิคคือเราจะต้องยิงสิ่งของชิ้นนั้นที่ตำแหน่งบนสุด เพื่อให้กระเด็นลงมาช่องเล็กๆที่อยู่ล่างลงมาเรื่อยๆ ซึ่งสามารถทำคอมโบต่อเนื่องไปด้วย ซึ่งในด่านหลังๆ จะเริ่มมีลูกเล่นบล็อกเคลื่อนย้าย บล็อคเด้ง เพื่อให้ยิงไม่โดนบ้างก็มีเช่นกัน (แนะนำให้ดูวิดีโอตัวอย่างเกมประกอบไปด้วย) เริ่มต้นเกมจะให้เรา 3 ชีวิต ถ้าสิ่งของกระเด้งลงมา แล้วรับไม่ทัน ก็จะเสีย 1 ชีวิต โดยรวมก็เป็นเกมไว้เล่นฆ่าเวลาที่ดีเกมหนึ่งเลย เพราะระบบการเล่นเข้าใจง่าย casual สุดๆ แต่เล่นไปนานๆ ดูท่าจะกลายเป็นหัวร้อนไปซะมากกว่านะเนี่ย เริ่มยากขึ้นไปทุกทีๆเลยเวรเอ้ย 7/10
