Weeping Skies

A clunky, but surprisingly good casual point-and-click adventure with some fun hidden-object scenes. The clunkiness has to do with some aspects being excellent, while others are bizarrely realized. The game world is evocative and smart, but the script and dialog are amateurish. The graphics and characters are gorgeous, but the 3D animations are rigid and primitive. Despite the flaws, there is enough diverse and exciting content as well as clever gameplay to please fans of the genre. If the team hires better writers and animators they can go to great heights! Final note: I have absolutely no idea what the name has to do with the game. There seems to be no relation.

A decent HOG that is worth the few hours to waste. Pros. ok story simple puzzles ok gameplay time ( a bit less than 3 hours for the main story) Cons. no voice acting no bonus story low resolution no support for widescreen ends up having black bars on the sides a bit buggy (encountered 2 bugs one where the hit point was very small and had to keep trying and the other were the item vanished from the inventory) How to fix the bugs --------------------------------------- to collect the spider venom you have to place the flask under its fangs and a bit to the left. keep trying and you will get it. you will notice after collecting the venom the item will not be in your inventory. don't worry! press esc save and quit to the main menu and come back to the game... Voila!! your item is back! --------------------------------------- overall despite those bugs i kinda enjoyed it. i really like old HOGs more than newer ones.. it shows (for most parts) that the devs cared making them... though for the sake of the game length... get it on sale. 7/10 for the game

Не самая плохая игра в жанре поиска предметов, нормальная картинка, приличная анимация, удобоваримый сюжет со всякими не всегда понятными моментами и перипетиями. Во всех отношениях средний проект, из основных минусов - цена, и для некоторых отсутствие русского языка.

The lack of voiceover I didn't think would bother me; but it does seem really weird. The HO scenes themselves are Ok, but there are great many objects where you need to 'do something else first.' That's fine, and often makes it more interesting. Here, though, the vast majority seem to be 'click on stuff until something opens or changes in some way.' Since you have absolutely no idea what is interactive, it comes down to random clicking on things. Nothing to do with observation or logic at all. There are numerous slight errors or outright bugs which gradually add up to irritate. A crowbar is a 'wrecking bar' (maybe that's common usage? I'd never heard the term before). A 'clock' in a HO scene turns out to be a pocket watch. At one point I tried to use a bird I'd collected on a balcony. I was told 'That should be enough oil.' You are told to exploit the fact that an enemy is made of wood, but rather than use the pheonix you have with you, you have to go through a convoluted sequence to set termites on it. There have been loads of these little gripes already, and I've only visited about 1/5 of the scenes. Oh, and the music? Not only repetative (hardly something new for a cheap HO game) but every so often there is a chime which sounds exactly a doorbell. I actually got up to answer the door twice before I decided to turn the music off. So; it's a more-or-less passable HO with incredible attention to lack of detail. (I put it that way deliberately.) I got it in a sale, and for a few pounds, it will probably be worth it if I can put up with the errors. If. Edit: I couldn't. I got only a few scenes from the end, and suddenly nothing showed up on the map as 'to do'. Using a hint just brought up the map. Totally broken. I certainly won't be trying again. Total waste of 4 hours, all told. (Which I suppose is why I got it, but it was at least supposed to be a mostly enjoyable 4 hours.)

I cannot give this game a good review because it is so buggy under windows 10 that I can't even get halfway through before encountering game breaking bugs, mostly with the HO scenes. It seems that the hidden object scenes are very picky about the exact spot that you touch one object on another for things that have to be combined. If you dont hit that spot (even though it looks like your mouse was right on the object) the object that you were using sometimes gets removed from the scene without the action being completed. At this point the game is hosed - totally broken. You cannot complete the HO scene and get the item needed for the rest of the game. There are a myriad of other issues too, like inventory items being added twice, the screen going black, not being given the item when the HO scene closed, etc etc. Most of these would resolve by leaving the game and coming back in. Finally I encountered a game breaking bug in a normal scene that appears to be repeatable, so I give up. This game isn't playable. If they fix it so that it works, I'll try it again and revise my review. This has got to be the buggiest game I have ever played on Steam.

왠지 주인공 아부지가 영국오이를 닮았다...ㅋㅋ 아주 조금 플레이해보았으나... 동영상에서 모든 소리가 끊기고 무음으로 진행됨 동영상 화질구지... 성우 없음 왠지 몰입감 떨어지는 스토리(개인적 감상..) 도전과제나 카드와 같은 플레이 지속요소 없음 번들에 딸려와서 실행해보았으나 재미가 읍당....

Интересная игра на поиск предметов с красивой хорошо проработанной графикой. Также имеется неплохой сюжет. В игре нет русского языка, а с плохим знанием английского будет проблематично понять что делать дальше. Игра затягивает своим сюжетом и поиском решений для головоломок. Так что любителям таких проектов должно понравится.

Standard Fantasy HOG. Uses some fairy tale tropes. Decent if your in the mood for this sort of game. Not spectacular.

Weeping Skies – Review I’ll be honest: I wasn’t expecting anything good from this old game. I’ve played so many titles in this genre where I just feel like an errand girl, running back and forth with no sense of purpose, like a headless chicken. But… SURPRISE: what a pleasant surprise this turned out to be. Let me tell you, the visuals are some of the most gorgeous I’ve seen — truly beautiful. The story isn’t anything special, nor is it meant to be taken seriously, but it still manages to pull you in. And the mini-games? Genuinely interesting and nicely varied, keeping you engaged right up until the silly final twist. 8/10
