ForlornDudette

10/10 visuals (nicely animated handcrafted heaven-like visuals) 10/10 puzzles (very original puzzles, and very playful) 10/10 sound and audio In the visual heritage of Josef Čapek, Adolf Hoffmeister and many others, I hoped the story will be more palpable - especially because this Amanitas first game (?) with the actual words, not visual story telling only. But when I think about it, the script with words felt that it is not adding anything I would not figured out from the rich visual story telling, and maybe sometimes it felt sometimes even disruptive. The fact that czech language was not delivered in June like it was planned was bit of a bummer too. I couldn't link the english accent with the R.U.R. book cover visuals (play by Karel Čapek, you know, the one where was the word ROBOT first used - yes, thats right, the ROBOT is from the czech language).

Story and imersion has the biggest part in this game for me. The story I would say is one of the best in recent time, even if it is not so extravagant (after the fact that you have already played the first game). Gameplay on the other hand is not bad, but even like a occasional puzzle enthusiast , I wanted to get rid of them ASAP, not very enjoyable for me.

If there is something that The Order 1886 shine, that are the visuals. The over-shoulder view is very cinematic. The soroundigns are just gorgeous! I had the issue with the story, but when I think about it, when you want to tell the shorter story than use of the existing legend is clever. Not that it is telling the story canonicly, but you have some ground covered just by funding it on the existing well-known legend. The weakest point is the combat for me. There are multiple weapons and they are quite precise in the manner of handling, but combat layout itself when enemies are always in multiple ways in kinda "house-of-the-dead" style (I dont know how better to put it), always. It is a solid 7. I would not consider it play it again, but I had a good time witn the game. But I can see the lower scores in the past caused also by steep price tag at the time VS play-time value. The thing is, when you so accent the visuals that much, the poor combat and gameplay suddenly are even more striking and mind boggling. Itt could me maybe better adventure game with choise-trees, the characters were quite intriquing and story would allowe it.

Its very visually striking cinematic platformer. Its not over complicated and not very difficult (more "enjoy the view" than "show me what you got"), so I can imagine some people for whom is challenge in the game mandatory will not be pleased with this title. I was just in awe with the graphic, sound design was also excelent, whole game has "nice" (meaning: well build) atmosphere and shifts between some phases is significant.

I like the aestetic, even though I thought at first it will be more clay-like animation. Levels are nicely niveled, main mechanic of each character can do justnhis own set of skills is nice. My main gripe is that narration and matching gameplay is somewhat not corresponding. The narration is vague, which is fine at the beginning and can build up interest. But it is not changing and later on I would appreciate more information and lore, because the world is specific and can be build upon. Its shorthish which is not a bad thing per se. Boss fights are nice and not over complicated, which is appreciated in the puzzle title. If the narration was more solid, I would play it again.

Nice story and setting. BARTENDING is easily grappable. Same with the fact that you can peek to the recipe book anytime. VERY CHILL, MUSIC TOP NOTCH.

The best and at the same time the worst thing for me in this game is that it is kinda summary of both previous games. Map is huge, so when you are curious about map cleaning activities when fighting is involved, it is pretty much the same all the time. No special twist or moves from enemies. I tend to do all the map activities when it is fun, but maybe I am exhausted but this was more chore for me, so I sticked to the main story. Story is not bad, there is a build up , but the final battle is flashy and anticlimactic at the same time for me. And I cannot stress enough how I dont like stealth missions with Mary Jane. Its like Ciri in Witcher 3, kinda clunky, not full fledgedly thought through. At the end, it is still Spiderman, we all love jumping and swinging in the streets and the intro sequence is one of the most flashy and cinematic starts I have played so... Still nice.

Despite nice visuals and original puzzle mechanic, game did not grb my heart very much.

Splendid game, just like the others Supergiant **** was just super frustrating for me when the "field" was with gaps. I was constantly ending dead, but I guess that was my skill issue (:

RPG with lot to offer. Just the low-cost end credits are bit head-scratching :D

Really special, meaningful and poetic story with moving soundtrack and exotic visuals.

Unforgetable story. Surprisingly told story. Sad story. And splendid voice acting and visuals.

The gameplay is slightly unintuitive and clunky as h***, but... the story felt really nice, it felt like a family even that the gameplay "loop" was nothing special. It felt certainly distinguished from other games and for that in my eyes it deserves some credit of appreciation.

Creative game with fun gameplay. Very original. This title, "Katamary serie" and "To a T" - the signature of the creator is significant. Recommendable!

It is non-verbal narrative BW pixel art game with really impressive soundtrack.Beware there is no much ****, but if you are up for some story telling, this is it. You can watch some movie, or you try this game. I have no problems with that what so ever. I liked it and it there is certain poetic to it.

It is not much ****, more like unfolding story, but... the emotions that raise along with the time with this title were real, so I will say "good job done".

Cozy and heart-warming. Simple mechanics easy to grasp (could be not enought if you are hardcore cozy gamer, viceversa it could be nice intro title for you to see if you would like to dive more into the games like this). Satysfying exploration and nice colorful graphics.

Weird one, but in the possitive way. There is a mystery, atmosphere. It feels out of your grasp, it is intriquing even when it is not super polished.

Fun-f*****-tastic! This one is original, funny, non conventional yet easy to attune to.

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

I must admit that the game is kinda standart, but despite that the way story is told... it somehow was surprising and sweet and different, and for that solely, it felt special (not to mentioned drawned graphics) and clicked with the minimalistic puzzle gameplay.

This and "Stick it to a Man", absolute peaks of entertainment. I think its downfall can be that people expect maybe something else when they anticipate what will it be about and what gameplay will look like. If you go to this game with a clean slate and open mind,if you like various types of humour and cartoon, these titles have you covered.

8,5/10 Cozy light-crafting adventure game with nice light-hearted dialogs. Very enjoyable.

Mystery adventure in its true form. Splendid gameplay idea, after many years I enjoyed the pure adventure story heavy game. Thank you!

Nice exploration, nice environmental puzzles, light hearted funny story with ancient Greece mythology references, responsive combat. After Assassins Creed serie run dry, this felt kinda fresh.

Fresh and unique gameplay, thematically rich story. Btw some boss fights are really not laughtable.

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

It is solid title, combat system has some depth and has precision, and I think for a title like this, that is the main focus. Areas feel distinguished enought,but are bit bare boned. Bosses are fun, some of them are quite difficult - fun to learn parry and dodge timings.

Fun to play, nice minimalistic story telling, the twist not to be a scientist but to be a monster?! And the pixel animations arepure gold!

It is a solid 7/10. Graphics are awesome, gameplay is fun - bit repetetive if you strive to do all things. I liked the Japanese settings and cultural references, and the glitches. The main protagonists are not that great, but I get used to them. It is over all title with a solid atmosphere.

Nice, sweet, shorter (in a good way) game with elements of hanging out. Surprisingly slick but also a bit more difficult combat focused on precise deflects and dodges. - but it is rewarding. I was honestly glad that I have some experience with souls-like titles because other wise I don ´t think I would be willing to learning these mechanics. I go in Eternights for a chill-like teenange title. It is more than that.

Graphics are simply fantastic. Gameplay is kinda standart - for people who were raised by Atlantis II and such (it is not played by each step, it is fluid FP walk, but still, you get the idea), the difference are just gadgets you can use as a investicator. The stories how they unfold through your investigation are intriguing, fans of glitch art or Blade Runner are here for treat (at least for me it was), very atmospheric.

Nice skill upgrades, ok difficulty for all-round players (I am not arcade nor metroid player and I managed to swipe cleanthe map). My only gripe is slightly annoying main character at the beggining of the game and the story is ok to frame the game.

Very imaginitive, fun animation. Long for me to figure out, but still - kinda shortish game.

Gameplay is pure fun. It is joy to try what delightful and funny animation is gonna happen.

Nice soundtrack, nice graphics, nice story. Cinematic. After the first half, somewhat clunky boss fights and few places, but not very annoyingly.

Very nice and imaginitive game full of surprises. It is like a colorful party, just to try this and that and be wondered what are the results.

I wanted to quit short after the first hour, I could not stand the siblings family, but after that - somewhat fresh adventure. I could really recommend to give it a go.

I played from the beggining, than I uninstall and now I am back again. There are bugs now and there, I just wait till it is fixed, I have no problem with that. You need not to pay anything for this game and the ingame currency lets you buy every other month the 5star dress, so... there is plenty to do, graphics are real nice, music and sound design is bogglingly intoxicating. Feel real cozy. Also the story was a seller for me (very surprising for me, some seriously heavy themes there).

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

This one is a bit difficult for me. I like the story, the characters are developing sensibly along with their relationship. But after"It takes two" which I have in very high regards, this one is more empty. The sceneries arenice and colorful but also feel empty and uniteractive. Maybe it is because the camera is focused from further away. It is flashy, yes. The inconvenience was that the segments are plentiful and the changing of them is quick, so I felt slight discontinuum and not the feeling of mastery of each area/segment like in It Takes Two. I played with my partner who is not player per se and someparts of the game were tough for him, so it was nice to have a option to skipp them - but I was also kinda unhappy about it because there is no push to "git gut". We menaged to skip just one bit - one with syncho opening locks on round doors.

For me, the most unlikable main characters. I did not like Eivor from Valhalla, butI genuinly nearly cannot stand both main characters here. Which is shame, because the French Revolution is wonderful time setting. Also the interaction with environment and the fact that protagonist need to CLIMB every little box he came across... simply irritating.

Absolute perfection. And except the collectibles, it is really solid game till this days IMO.

My luck was to join this game year later, after all the fixes and quality of life features for New Game Plus. I enjoyed combar very much, It is flashy, you can set up various interesting character builds - two-handing, dual wielding, sword and shield, all fun to play. The LOOKS of the ARMOR is one of the best IMO. The time I spend in PHOTO MODE in some locations is riddiculous, it is sooo good, I could scrutinize all details of architecture and enemies even in REALLY long distances, wonderful!!! I fully understand the bitterness when you buy a newly released game and it has many bugs. It is fair to address that. But it is also fair to say that the state of that game changed a tons. Only thing I do not the funtion of is a multilplayer. I tried to play with strangers (for coop trophies) and the results varied.

I played this game so many times. I love all the stories and world. DLCs are really special, not just some pity appendix. Music is exceptional. And after playing so many games I really appreciate the intro of the game. Just combat feels little silly nowadays, but it is functional.

Very satysfying combat, precise. Graphics are just gorgeous. Collectibles are not necesary and are unique to the game and they are not so much of them, I preciate that (for a potentional trophy hunt). Voice acting is English is also very nice - I was worried to not be albe to read subtitles and play game properly, so first playthrough I did was English version dab. Characters are distinguished nicely. Nothing felt to me like a chore (sure, you can be oversaturated by all side quests and collectibles if you tent to play all AssassinsCreed, but here? It felt fresh to mein some way, or it was more meaningful.)

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

I played this game to the end game. I loved this system so much but wanted specific pawns who have certail behavior (and are not changing that behavior) that I created another accounts so I could create perfect pawns for my main character. It was all worth it. Yes, it was especially because of the DLC. It is the mid to end game dungeon with the best loot (and best looking loot). I loved the interaction of the pawns, I love the mystery and atmosphere surounding the story and **** feels very lively,exploration is great. Enemies are vicious and you can fight them really creatively - they are weakened whenyou cut of the certain part, or you can climb them or hold them still if they are smaller - or your pawns can do that for **** the ATMOSPEHERE. It is the dark medievil atmosphere of few games I know - this and Dragon Age Origins (totally different gameplay, mind you). Its heavy, it is raw in some ways, it has impact.
