CrossCode

玩过之后一天不找箱子我浑身难受~ 游戏本身是很好玩的，游戏中的npc给了我一种现实中朋友的感觉（然而我现实中并没有朋友）。游戏中主要三个玩法，战斗，解谜，找箱子。 我最喜欢的是解谜，虽然没有提示有时候容易卡关，但是自己思考半天恍然大悟的成就感非常大，觉得自己很聪明的错觉也驱使着我接着玩下去，有的时候不知不觉几个小时就过去了，很让人沉迷。 战斗也不错，挺爽快的这就不多说了。 重头戏来了，说实话这游戏的找箱子都能给我气笑了，全靠高地差挑战人的记忆力，最可气的是有的时候需要跑到前几个房间开始跳来跳去才到这个房间的高地上，实话说要是小时候让我玩这个红白机，我说不定早就戒游戏好好学习了,我把这个玩法比作像素界的黑魂，很难但是很魔性，玩了几十个小时以后再玩其他游戏真的是一天不找箱子我浑身难受！ 总结一下，游戏是好游戏，剧情很棒画面也好，解谜很有趣。你不收集箱子也一样做任务，但是收集强迫症真的要慎重考虑要不要玩（痛并快乐着）！

It's a good game with likeable characters and beautiful graphics, but puzzles are driving me crazy. Oh, and to someone who thought that "races" in a puzzle dungeon is a good idea... you are crazy, man :) You aren't penalized for being late at least (aside from characters reacting to it, I guess). I've dialed down received damage and attack frequency (assuming the last one works on bosses) for the final battle, though. I could've probably figure it out with time, it's not like it was impossible, but I couldn't just take it anymore. Many missions are also solo ("instanced dungeons"), which is kinda unfortunate, since I liked doing things with the whole party more.

An overall fun game. Combat starts out a bit basic but becomes a great source of fun as a fairly large roster of skills opens up, even if some of them are clearly more effective than others. The game is stonking full of 'secret' chests sitting just out of reach that will keep you searching for ledges, buttons and ricochets even when you probably don't need the contents that badly by the end. There are a series of mandatory 'temples' to puzzle through. These have lots of fun moments of discovery but can get uncomfortably long though as you frequently reiterate similar puzzles over and over again. I enjoyed this game quite a lot and was glued to it for over a week but it felt brought down by a couple of longer than necessary dungeon puzzles along with an ending that feels like it backfires by naively romping through some otherwise serious themes set up at the beginning.

This game made me believe that I really have friends. This is a game where you play a game, and all the characters in it also understand that they are playing a game. This creates such an extraordinary lively atmosphere that at some point you start to believe that the same players as you are really sitting behind these pixel men. I experienced similar sensations as from playing World of Warcraft when I was 12 and all social interactions on the Internet caused me wild delight. Just the best.

My 50-some-hour run of CrossCode was time well spent. While the overall story and world setting will never be on anyone's "best of" list, I had a good time with the genuinely amusing banter the characters have throughout the game. The pixel art and animation is very well done, and I love the detailed characters' expression portrays. I found its action-focused gameplay to be quite satisfying, and figuring out how to counter each enemy/boss is half the fun. Interestingly enough, I wasn't expecting nearly as many environmental puzzles, but with a bit of perseverance they can be mastered. Luckily, not long after full release the devs also patched in options for more granular difficulty adjustment options for combat and puzzles, making CrossCode quite accessible. Lastly, M+K controls are decent, but I definitely recommend a gamepad for smoother and more granular controls.
