What a wonderful little game
Actually, it's not necessarily that "little". There are about 5 pretty large areas to discover (about 10 if you count sub sections of those large areas). For experienced gamers, I'd recommend to start on "insane" difficulty right away. There was one boss I had to skip and will hopefully be able to beat soon now that I'm almost done with the game. Which already indicates the at least partial non-linear nature of the game. There are things you have to do to progress but the order you do them in (and sometimes even how much of it) is up to you. What really makes the game stand out to me though is the nature of puzzles and degree of interaction. For example - one of the areas is an amusement park and if you try to skip in line, the other characters will push you. If you try to board a train too early, the conductor will stop you and tell you that the cleaning staff is still in there. YES, there's actually cleaning staff that enters and leaves the train and takes a few seconds! It's little details like that throughout the whole game that make it so charming. The puzzles are frequently about using items in a specific way with someone/something. But even though there are a ton of items, you usually get helpful clues (don't forget about your bird companion!). I also love the fact that the game is mostly about exploration and little puzzles/tasks rather than fighting. Aside from the ~10 boss fights, it's rare that you have to fight. There is quite a number of NPCs though that start off as neutral and will fight back if you attack them though. All that said, releasing the game in 2016 in an unfinished state and then patching it up across about 3 years to then slap a "definitive version" onto what it should've been in the first place - that's not a cool move. Hence -1 star. It's a funny parallel to how the main character acts in the beginning of the game though. (Plus, there's one puzzle towards the end that is really annoying.)
Hilft dir das weiter?
