해상도 ㅈ박았네

강제 16:9 고정인지 화면 가장자리에 레터박스 생기는것부터 맘에 안드는데 번역 개선 없이 가져오고 조작감도 쓰레기인 편임 그래도 본작이 참 잘만들었는데 차라리 이식을 하지 말았어야함

It turns into an idiotic video game shooter

I loved this game at first. Beautiful, fascinating story. Great puzzles. But by the time you get to the “B” level you gotta do split second taps that I have now tried hundreds of times and cannot physically execute, even though I solved the logical puzzles. I don’t want to bang on the screen going pew pew pew like an idiot. What a shame.

Stunning

This is the best game I’ve ever played..
I’ve only just begun my quest and I’m hooked. The game looks massive and compelling- I don’t know why I havnt downloaded sooner. In one word ‘stunning’

Mehr davon bitte!!!

Ihr würdet mich so glücklich machen, wenn ihr Version 2 auch noch für iOS zur Verfügung stellt!!

Excellent

I really like this game, the story is very interesting and well executed. I have bonded with my character and am invested in their story. The puzzles are also very well thought out some harder than others. I like finding the puzzle pieces and the sense of progression. I know this is an old game but sometimes they’re the best.
