♥️LOVE👵🏼
Thank you GrandMA Studios!
'Cause nothing says "HELLO!" than a drowned little girl suggesting water sports.🏊🏻
🔥Everburning certainly lives up to its name.
First:
It's a bright high energy game with a never ending paranormal storyline set in the turn of the century.
It starts with a bang, instantly grabbing you by the hair, quickly dragging you into various directions, complete with a "Slap in the face" Option...
(🛏or was that last night...?) and loads of in your face action (def last night🗣👈🏻) with dark energies snatching &sucking people into disappearing vortexes, faced with giving CPR, and dealing with five alarm fires🚒....
and that's just the first five minutes!
🤣
Second:
This game is Ever-Lasting!
Every time the items dwindled down with an explosive video segment and dialogue, I fully anticipated the ending...but no.
It ratchets right back up, springs back into action...again and again.
Now that's worth paying these airport prices. 🛫💸
🖼Scenes are carefully thought out with fantastic realistic graphics and video, beautifully crafted, -down to the tiniest details- utilizing every inch of space, highlighting all kinds of cool creepy objects.
The reality comes alive through movement in scenes, from the wispy blowing of hair, dresses, curtains, cracklings and sparks from the fires...and much more.
I appreciate the fast pace and with such a large volume and variety of items and scenes- you have tons of interactive areas to explore 👨🏻🚀and figure out:
A HUGE ➕for people like me who only use Custom mode w Two helps: HINT/SKIP.
🏰Don't let the MidEvil to Victorian type era fool you, there's nothing old here:
The game in its entirety is breath of fresh air: start to finish.
Happy that I wasn't hacking on the usual endless dust from archaic and brittle worn out HO/Puzzles/Mini-Games that should have been retired LONG AGO....and the best part?
NO DOGS!!
Not one whiny mutt to placate! Hurray!
🐸
Say hello to a Rain Forest looking Frog...(this one looks like a scary plastic toy) .....who gets a 👑 crown.
Simple, but I'll take that over dogs/cats/crows, etc., ANYTHING that's new and different!
The well thought out awesome graphics 👌🏻 are so perfectly intricate; a level of attention to detail that enriches each scene...as gruesome as they are.
👻
Its the "paranormal meets mystery" continuity that keeps the fantasy alive throughout, like the disembodied spirits/voices/creatures, a desk made of human body parts, a mask within a Tiffany-esque style lamp, a wheezing man/spider hybrid (think Body Snatchers, concrete angels and a fairly shocking blend of human and inanimate objects that make the creepiest dolls seem cuddly, and too much more...
👧🏻•The little girl cube mini game reversing scenes was UBER COOL.
so was the swish video segment afterward.
•ALL of the HOP's and Mini-Games were really, REALLY interesting and diverse.
Each one was unique, most took more time than usual, and JOY, 🤗not a drive by in the bunch.
There were twice as many as compared to other games.
•Love the pull down/exchange games, finding objects in the mist, and the three lines of sliding shapes to open the door puzzle...simple, but different and more time consuming.
FUN.🎡
But as always- some critique:
😳GET A ROOM!
There's always room for improvement.
Starting with my long standing criticism in every game.
Considering this is such a fantastic game, setting a fabulously new higher standard -
I expected the actual skill level to be much more difficult.
I am still looking for truly mind-bending tasks requiring a lot of time/thought -really pushing the boundaries of these types of genres.
By allowing the user to choose/adjust the internal game settings -just like the custom option -creating a very challenging and thought provoking journey.
MY🤗IDEAL.
🔥.....🚒...🚒...🚒RACING TO THE FINISH....
In the last fiery ten minutes, my nemesis emerged from the flames, disguised as that lazy "hoop-jumping task master" to ensure I was furiously running back and forth to collect the final items....in one foul swoop...injecting insult to irony....by adding AN ANNOYING GRUFF-WHINY CAT 🤦🏼♀️to the fray, not only to placate, but to have to actually WORK by gathering items to make a toy to lure the walking fur lined irritation
away.
Thus began sucking the fun right out of the game...instead of an explosive and/or satisfying resolution to what's been a GREAT game.
(The only one so far since Phantasmat's Crazy Amazing Mournful Loch)
But that aside, and overall, what it lacks in complexity....it makes up for in creativity....(oh boy.....could I insert some very inappropriate jabs here..🥁lol...)
and I look forward to the next installment.
🏆I am absolutely appreciative GrandMA strives to be forward thinking and different.
That alone deserves PRAISE.
I Cannot wait for my next visit with GrandMA! 👵🏼🎮
😒 BONUS GAME:
A huge departure from the game, in terms of skill, interest, challenge, etc.
Disappointment.😕
The first HO game was way too easy. Its ridiculous attempt to deceive with the "Dreamcatcher": by including the decorative circular mesh type hoop with embellished/beaded feathers hanging down, and nearby one separated..feather...would NOT BUDGE..forcing me to use HINT...assuming it was a glitch...indicating a group of large brass bells?
FACT:Native Americans are insulted by modern interpretations of "Dreamcatchers" as over-commercialized, offensively misappropriated/misused, since word and object intentionally created for spiritual protection, with great respect. The materials are all soft and without noise.
Metal bells can be interchangeable with wind-chimes- ...but NOT Dreamcatchers.
Do your homework.😠
