Enjoyable, but a bit too buggy
Pinstripe is a game that relies heavily on its looks, and nothing else. Not to say it's a bad game, but without it, it'd be yet another puzzle platformer. It does have a nice plot to it, but you're hit over the head with it so many times, whatever surprise or shock it could have garnered is ruined. It seems your daughter was kidnapped while you were on a train together, and you go on an adventure to a weird village to track her down. Needless to say there's something more to the plot than that, but you'll get large hints throughout the game as to what is really going on. As for the puzzles, they aren't that interesting, but can be tough at times, causing me to leave the computer a couple of times, just to clear my head. But once you realize the solution, it's fairly rewarding. Sadly, puzzles are repeated too many times, and there aren't enough unique ones for the puzzles to be a draw. Part of the difficulty comes from having to return to areas you thought you cleared already, causing me to look at a walkthrough a couple of times. The characters in the game are fairly interesting, but never get developed enough to become memorable - mainly the main bad guy of the game. Talking to the different characters, you sometimes get to choose what response to give them - a good one or a bad one, but most interactions seem to be set in stone, which is a shame. It made me feel as if I'm watching a movie. Experiencing what the game developer wanted you to experience isn't as rewarding as having a say in the matter. The music is also fairly nice, but not very memorable, and the game seems to stutter and sometimes freeze for several seconds, for no apparent reason. Other than that it has far too many loading screens, which take too long to load. Pinstripe just feels like it was coded in a clunky manner, causing the weird slowdowns and lengthy loading, despite me having an SSD drive, and no other program running in the background.
Hilft dir das weiter?
