User Reviews
It's almost good. I played through the dev's first horror tales, and this one is a step up from that. Lots of improvements were made, but lots of improvements weren't.
Pros:
- Terrain and world building is solid. The environments look good.
- Great universe setup with the story. There are a lot of cool ideas.
- The animation work and characters, though not the best, were descent enough to immerse me a bit into the personalities and such.
- There are some cool mechanics and puzzles.
Cons:
- The writing overall is pretty bad.
- It seems like voice acting and some artwork is made with AI (I hope I'm wrong).
- Pacing is poorly done. You fly through a lot of the sequences too quick for them to have an actual impact.
- The main mechanics are a little janky. Some take too much time to use/charge, making some puzzles a bog to get through.
- The music is very typical-sounding. It doesn't add much to the game.
This developer has the ability to make some incredible games, he just needs to branch out with other artists and writers. There are some fantastic story ideas, and the overall universe he is trying to set up is intriguing. This is all, unfortunately, overshadowed by lackluster game design and art/writing direction. Other than the graphics and environments, this game feels more like a first draft than a fully polished product. I really hope this dev utilizes some more talent and grows a team. Again, the universe he has with the series of games he's making is great, it would just be a shame for it to collapse with a lack of improvement on almost all fronts.
this game is special , really like the use of weather and day and night , I definitely cannot wait for their next game Iron Reich.
Interesting game. I liked the graphics. Game play was difficult for me. Thankfully there are enough settings to play through more of the game, when you get stuck.
Interesting as an art project, absolutly terrible as a game
