A beautifully crafted game
Lumino City evokes feelings of childhood in me – that carefree, dreamy yearning for adventure and comfort. Although the comparison might be overstressed, it feels a little bit like Alice in Wonderland. You play Lumi, a girl in search for her kidnapped Granddad. Starting off at the gates of the intricately crafted cardboard-and-paper-city, and moving on from scene to scene, you explore more and more of its surreal mysteries and its strange and endearing characters. Along the way, you have to solve a variety of interesting and creative puzzles. At times, I felt quite baffled about what I was actually doing and looking at. My personal favorites are making the captain of the ship that caught up on top of a giant ferris wheel believe that he's at sea, and nailing a wardrobe to the floor in a house that spins. The soundtrack fits well and makes for a very playful, relaxing atmosphere. Personally, I think that the game had more potential. Conversations in this game are very short, and there isn’t really a story apart from Lumi’s search for her Granddad. The scenes are all beautifully crafted, but in some of them there is very little to interact and you basically just pass by very quickly, which is a pity. Moreover I found most of the puzzles to be a little bit too easy, but that's just me personally. There are also a few puzzles that I had to chew on for quite a while. All in all, I think that Lumino City is a fine and very loveable game with a refreshing approach to the genre.
