Super Adventure mit interessanter Story

Es ist fast 1 Uhr nachts an einem Arbeitstag. Ich sollte eigentlich schon im Bett sein. Allerdings war ich gerade im letzten Chapter und wollte es nicht speichern und beenden. Die Story ist super, die Raetsel sind auch logisch aufgebaut und selten komplex. Normalerweise mag ich Spiele nicht in denen man sterben kann oder mehrere verschiedene Ansaetze fuer ein Raetsel unter Zeitdruck ausprobieren muss, aber hier hat es ganz gut ins Konzept gepasst. Eines der besten Adventures, die ich letzter Zeit gespielt habe. Zum aktuellen Preis von 17 Euro macht man auf jeden Fall nichts falsch.

Geniales Spiel

Ich hatte gar nicht besonders viel erwartet aber wurde sehr positiv ueberrascht. Man spielt u.a. als Justin, der aus Versehen durch eine defekte Mikrowelle in die Dinosaurierzeit zurueck versetzt wird. Im gleichen Atemzug kommt ein Hoelenmensch in der aktuellen Zeit an. Wir versuchen im Lauf der Geschichte Justin wieder in seine Zeit zurueck zu bringen, eine wildgewordene Robotermeute zu besiegen, die die Zeit kontrolliert und wieder mit seiner Freundin zusammen zu kommen, wegen der er wegen einer Katzenalergie nicht zusammen sein kann. Ueber die Story moechte ich eigentlich gar nicht so viele Details verlieren. Witzig war, dass man ueber 3 verschiedene Zeiten (Vergangenheit, Praesenz und Zukunft) mit bis zu 3 Charaktaeren Raetsel loesen muss, die Auswirkungen auf die jeweils anderen Zeiten haben. Der Humor ist relativ nerdig und die Raetsel bringen einen auch zum schmunzeln. Die Grafik ist in 2d gehalten und auch schoen gezeichnet. Ich habe mit englischer Sprachausgabe gespielt, welche ordentlich vertont war. Die Zeit habe ich nicht gestoppt aber ich habe 3 oder 4 laengere Abende daran gespielt.

Really well made adventure

I played it in German as the developer is located there. The story got me and I played it every evening after work. Some of the puzzle-riddles (e.g. hacking into the container pc) are really annoying though and I ended up looking into the walk through. The riddles seem to get harder over time and they're also often not too obvious which is nice. Modern adventures usually are more like movies where you essentially know exactly what to do next. Characters are unique, voice acting is really good. Walking animations look a bit weird but it's nothing that should bother somebody. In general a really well made adventure. The 20eur I paid were definitely worth it (I usually don't play much and just grab some at a sale for 1-5eur normally but I wanted this one after I saw reviews on adventuretreff.de).

Beautiful game with minor drawbacks

Without spoiling too much, the game's story contains a failed gene-engineered prodigy child that wants to become a electronic music dj but has to save the world from a sloth first. So one can already tell that the games doesn't take itself too serious. The fun in Paradigm comes from the weird ideas and the absurd environment the story takes place in. It's beautifully drawn, the voices are well done for such a low budget and it contains a lot of immature weird humor that matches the characters quite well. However, one of the weak points of the game is this humor as well. It's sometimes overdone a bit. Pretty much each comment a character does contains a witty remark, even though it's not really needed at that place. The other weakness is the puzzles. Most of the time the solutions are quite obvious or a comment from Paradigm already tells you more or less exactly what the solution is. I never really got a bit stuck for a bit, so there is not really the satisfaction of solving hard puzzles. It's a cool game to play and it's good that it was crowd-funded so no publisher could tell Jacob what to put into the game and what not. Definitely worth a try when you're thinking about which game to play next. Pro: - lots of immature humor - gorgeous drawing and animation - unique weird characters Cons: - lots of immature humor - the puzzles are way too easy

Nice game but slow story

The game feeling is quite good as well as the technical execution. That's probably why I played it to the end. Apart from that, the story does not really have a climax or an open goal that has to be achieved. It just seems like playing the every-day life of a rather boring character.
