Good game. Tough, you'll die a lot. Slain! is a fitting title. Interesting enough story, has a heavy metal theme, smooth game play. My only gripe is the blocking seems inconsistent on timing at times, but that's probably more me than the game. Or maybe I'm just blaming the game for my failures? I keep coming back to this title though, so perhaps I am a sucker for punishment.
Second time I have bought this game. Once on my PS5, once off of GOG. This game is relaxing, has a good story, characters you care about, good voice acting and a gameplay loop that will make you want to complete just one more shift. Lots of ship variety, lots of game modes. The positive reviews and accolades are well deserved.
First bought this game for my PS2, then again for my PS3, now on GOG so I can take it with me wherever I take my laptop. It's just a good Star Wars story. If you like Star Wars, this game is very easy to recommend.
I dismissed this game as a mobile game import. Never gave it a chance as a result. I was wrong to do so. I picked this game up on sale as I figured I had nothing to lose (everyone else was raving about it) and what I got was an incredible puzzle platformer that has roots in horror. If you've played a game called Little Nightmares, you will like this game. It's fun, challenging, you will die a lot... but you want to know how it ends. It took me longer than the average to finish it, but it was worth it. There is a fantastic game here for such a small file size, I highly recommend it.
I enjoyed this one. Solid linear platformer, good action, good story, decent voice acting, multiple endings, lots of hidden items to find, various gameplay modes. There is a lot of value in this game. My 2018 laptop runs it buttery smooth on the recommended settings too. The only real gripes I have are that I occasionally fought with the controls and it wasn't always obvious how to proceed in certain spots, but these are nit picks as I always figured it out. Took me about 6.5 hours to finish the game on my first play through.
This game lives up to the hype. It's relaxing to play, you can do the story missions, help townsfolk, or just go off your own way and do whatever. The game doesn't hold your hand right off the bat, but gives you enough to get started. The longer you stick with it, the more you get out of it. You can play this game while listening to music or watching TV/movies, which is a big plus for me. The game be a little too grindy at times, but it gets more right than wrong. I picked this game up on sale and feel like I am getting my money's worth.
This is a good, short game. The voice acting is top tier and along with a well written story, had me caring about the relationship between the main characters. The game sets the tone immediately with a series of events that lead you to be in the Fire Tower. Answers you give early on affect story narrative down the line, conversations can have multiple outcomes, giving this linear game replayability. You can explore a little bit, but the game does a good job keeping you on task, as you unravel a mystery that creates some genuinely creepy and intense moments. The conversations in the game feel natural and flow well, none of it feels disjointed or awkward. Once you finish the game, you do feel like playng again to see how other conversation arcs will go or see if decisions you make will change how certain situations play out.. The game isn't heavy on action, but it does build suspense well. The graphic style is cartoon-like, but still wonderful to look at. I picked this game up on sale for a little over $5 CAD and feel like I got a great game for a heck of a bargin. If you like story driven games, this one will keep you engaged start to fnish.
This may be long winded, but hopefully it helps someone... I did not read the graphics card warning before I bought the game. I'm using Windows 10 64 Bit, Intel Core i5-7300U processor, Intel HD Graphics 620, 8 GB RAM and the still game runs well on my laptop. You just have to shut off the fog and water effects in the Graphics menu. The game does not support widescreen or my Logitech F130 xinput controller. There is a mod for the widescreen, Google will help you find that easy enough. I used AntimicroX for the controller emulation. Both those problems are solved. I still have my PS3 version of POP Sands Of Time HD Remake, and played it and this one to compare how they work. If you install the widescreen mod, turn off the fog and water effects, both versions are indentical. I cannot see a difference between them graphically (other than the water is clear in the PC version, in the PS3 version it has a slight blue tinge), they control the same, they sound the same. I'm not even sure what that fog setting does on the PC version as a result. Speaking of sound, both versions have semi wonky audio. The PS3 version has this "echo" to it, some parts are kind of hard to hear, some parts are blasted. The PC version is the same. I've Googled it, no one seems to have a fix, and I can't get it better no matter how I tweak my sound settings. I got this game for $2.25 CAD, so I can't complain too much. It still plays well despite it's flaws. It's still a great game and wonderful story. Just know it has it's quirks.
Never heard of this game until recently, bought it on sale and ended up liking this gem. It runs fine for me on a 2018 laptop with Windows 10. It does need a bit of tweaking though. For me, I had to change compatibility settings to Windows 7 and check off run in 640x480 resolution. The game opens with the window weirdly otherwise. I didn't need to download any patches because of this. Apparently this game was made as a way to cash in on Final Fantasy 7 success. If you like those types of games, this should be right up your alley. It was for me.
Played and loved this game and it's sequel back in my PS2 days. Game runs great for me, I'm using a 2018 Lenovo laptop (it's second hand and no upgrades) with Windows 10. I'm several hours in, the game still holds up. It's a solid horror/survival game and I'd recommend it to anyone who likes the genre. The only glitch I had was the audio for the game wouldn't come through my HDMI cable, it would only play through the laptop speakers. After some searching, I found an easy fix. The game was defaulted for me at 800x600 - 32 bit for resolution. My laptop is set at 1920x1080... change the game resolution to 1920x1080 - 32 bit and the sound came through my HDMI like normal. Something about Intel coding and old game coding not being compatible. Anyway, the audio works great now. I picked this game, and it's sequel, up for a little over $3 CAD each. If you are waiting for a sale, that's how cheap I got it for.
