This was a good game but I wouldn’t say it was fabulous. As with all games I will discuss the positive and negative aspects. You could customize settings. The storyline was interesting and simple to follow. Objectives were regularly updated although there was no cohesive journal. 4 Friends gave us incredible graphics and literally electrifying and magnificent cut-scenes, as well as flawless gameplay. Their level of quality assurance is always extremely high. There was a marked teleport map to transport you almost instantaneously between locations. At each location you must collect demonic masks, and the map indicated whether you had found them; also included was a side tab to indicate how many masks you found. Inventory was labeled and interactive and there were complex items to assemble. The tasks and objectives were entertaining to accomplish. The gimmick in this game was a mystical bracelet with different functions; I won’t go into detail. This game was a decent length with the bonus adventure included.
What detracted from this game? The HO scenes in the main game were all word lists, and in the bonus adventure were silhouettes. There was no alternative puzzle and I was a bit bored with these scenes. They were also revisited, which added to the monotony. The puzzles/games were also revisited and didn’t have enough variety; that being said there were still several which I found somewhat interesting, such as the one where you had to map out a route and the labyrinth puzzle. Another issue was that this game needed a back button; when accessing the map/tasks folder or trying to utilize complex items or inventory tools it was somewhat easy to accidentally back-tap to a prior location.
All in all, I felt that this was still a good game and my rating will stand at 4 stars. Next up is EIPIX, and I am not looking forward to poor quality assurance, with the speed at which they have been churning out games.
Happy gaming, everyone!
