Design won't dew

First, there is nothing amazing about this game. Nothing redeems it from the few minor and major issues it has. The main problem is the game misleading you into thinking you can solve a puzzle that you absolutely cannot solve. It does this in two ways: 1. Your companion will always tell you that your current status is enough to conquer anything. Even if you're facing a puzzle that requires the next tool you don't have, he will tell you you've got everything to solve this puzzle. 2. You can come at puzzles from the wrong side, but there is nothing telling you that. Basically this puzzle is solvable from the other side, the reward being a way for you to pass through that area. Only the design doesn't prevent you from somehow getting to the destination side first, leaving you in a place to think you have a puzzle to solve that actually isn't even there. The dialog is not very cute or funny as I was led to believe (it IS extremely sparse), combat is a nuisance not a challenge, travel is repetitive and sometimes you get stuck, there is no story... The only reason it gets 2 stars is because some of the puzzles are mildly interesting.

Short and sweet

I got this as part of the "Luck of the Irish" promotion, so it was a good value. The game has a time tracker that lets you see how long you've been playing, mine clocked at about 2 hours by the time I beat the game. I did about half of the side quests I think. I liked how everything was animated, especially the swaying trees. The dialogue between characters was much like what a gamer is thinking when playing the game, like "okay, so smash stuff till the door opens?"

Very Decent Puzzler (With Issues)

I'm writing this having just beaten the game, including the "Master Cave" levels, which are diabolical. Number 5 of those, in particular, took me hours to complete (after I worked out how). The millisecond-perfect dexterity required was something else. If I hadn't beaten it eventually, this would be a 4-star review (but it still needs to be made easier). The boss fights are too difficult for a casual oldie gamer like me. My 360 Controller takes the character up whenever I accidentally clicked the direction button (usually when I was trying to go down in a hurry). I swore many times at that. Having to restart a screen is usually painless but, on a handful of levels, is extremely irritating. I need a "five second undo" feature!! ;-) Those moans aside, I thoroughly enjoyed the game. Yes, you can get to the ending very fast if you want to, but that doesn't mean you've beaten the game. That takes double or triple the total time. Great graphics, sound, design. Well worth the blind-buy from GOG. :-)

Delivers more than expected!

If you buy this game, you will: - Have a lot of fun - Have spent money well - Have something to do to keep you entertained for about 6 hours on a single playthrough if you're going for 100% (with help). Pros: - Funny Characters, story, jokes. - Puzzles that make your brain steam and are really satisfying to complete. - Great art style, done by hand. - Great soundtrack and boss fights Cons: - Controls can be a little confusing if you use a keyboard (at least for me), so a controller is advised for more fun. - That the game isn't more expensive so they make more games like this. Bottom line, Triple SSS game, very well worth the money. A game you will not regret playing and will probably nag your friends to play it as well after proudly boasting how fun it is.

The Appearance of Itan Carver

Got this game randomly at the Mutator promo; ended up playing this instead of the big titles I bought purposely ;). Imagine a simple zeldish 2D Sokoban++ puzzler, then add *really* cute characters and overworld, inane story and non sequitur comments about the enemies and some...identity issues of the protagonists. I spent two really fun evenings wandering around the world, solving the puzzles and looking into every nook and cranny for all the hidden cards and nonsense pop-up text (then two more frustrating evenings completing the optional Master Cave: trying, retrying, not understanding what I'm expected to do, failing to execute a sequence fast enough, muttering curses, caving in and looking for walkthrough...). I'm definitely keeping this one for the kids ;). Awesome for gamepad, couch and a big screen. So glad the GOG RNG selected this for my blind game - I could have missed a really fun experience! P.S.: This should go without saying, but the game just plain works: no bugs, no slowdowns (on a low-end Intel NUC with integrated gfx), resolution configurable, input configurable. Issues in these areas can suck a lot of joy from playing, so I'm glad there were none.
