Newbie game player and loved this
I’m not an interactive game player by habit, however I read an intriguing review and was curious to learn more. I struggled cat first because I lack a practiced game player mindset, yet I love puzzles, have a curious nature, and a bit analytical. This puzzle world enthralled me. Once I started to get into the groove and style of the game I couldn’t put it down. If you’re a seasoned game player you may find it too ”light”. For the rest of us, I loved the story, the graphics and the puzzles.Show lessSmilinginSeattle
Very different approach
If you just finished playing The Rooms and The House of Da Vinci, this game has a very different approach but it has the same fundamental in puzzle solving (the same type of brain twisting fun). You will need to put 3D perspective aside and think in 2D term. The game puts you in 2D comic book environment and you go from there. You rearrange and overlaying the comic book panels until the specific puzzle is solved within the panel and then you move on to the next puzzle. The story telling is unique because they are all pictures and no words. You are able to get the hints of your next task by reading the characters’ thoughts. Once you understand how it works, the game is actually very good and challenging.Show lessRav
A Piece of Art
A seemingly innocent look outside the window in a brightly lit afternoon opens a spiritual journey into a war torn city. The story spans a life time (read about this as I just reached blue chapter).
There is no better way to tell such story, via framed art & movable story book like panels. The innovative game mechanism, the beautiful art work, the exquisitely illustrated atmosphere, cityscape, and various objects…a deeply touching subject…what not to love? There is nothing like this as I have been actively searching for all (noted) hand drawn style puzzle games. This should be the future.
Not only we play, I think. Maybe because I realized the heaviness of the subject underneath it all, I can only play a little a bit at a time. I got stuck at one place so far as it’s requiring a completely new way to piece things together, not sure if same play is ever used later.
A good wine is to be savored. I am hoping there’d be more in the making. I found this game only after a much delayed iPad upgrade so a huge catch up. There is no rush but this needs carried on.Show lessAppDeeDee
