Feb. 2025

I recommend this game on a big sale, but not for full price. I've played this game twice once in 2016, replayed again and I only ran into one bug towards the end. I had to Alt+F4 out of the game but loaded back right to where I closed out. That was the only bug I had encountered during both playthroughs. This game is kind of a rough start to this two part series, depending on what type of games and storylines you like, this one isn't bad at all. I really liked the story and I dove right in. This is a beautifully crafted game with a good story, with a continuation of Memoria, it's the sequel. If I remember correctly , Memoria was the better out of the two, I'm replaying that again next so if need be I'll come back and edit this comment. I really liked the game, the story sucked me in, and it was a good experience. I get why the characters are the way they are, obnoxious at times yes, but it's understandable, but it was good to see Geron fighting against what he's always been told and trying to be a good guy. Nuri a fairy is pretty ignorant of the world and gets into trouble. Honestly throughout the story they both grew on me. As for the puzzles, there's a lot of running back and forth, and a lot of the puzzles were illogical and obnoxious, but for the most part pretty straight forward with what you need to do..... At the same time a lot going on and can be easy to get lost and confused. I did have to consult a guide for a couple of areas. It's a good game if you're looking for a P&C game to play. It's a more serious tone compared to other Daedilic games.

July 2024

Great story, characters, game in general. Most of the puzzles are fun too, slightly marred by the occasional inscrutable puzzle, that, even after looking at a walkthrough, I couldn't have figured out. Otherwise, this and its sequel are highly recommended.

May 2024

Here my hands have reached the very first creation of Daedalic. In short, I liked the game. The theme of the game is made in medieval style. The events themselves unfold around Geron, a guy who had to go through a lot of adventures in order to save the world from his inevitable fate. The game is made in point-and-click genre, and throughout the game we collect items that are needed to pass the locations. The puzzles in the game are not particularly complex, but sometimes it is quite difficult to solve them without proper guides. The soundtrack in the game is very pleasant and fits perfectly into the theme of the game itself, and the game itself, passes quickly enough, but leaves only positive impressions.

May 2024

Was a pretty fun game. Don't see difficulties in point and clicks, but in this one easy mode has some nice features, and hard difficulty (which I did my first playthrough on) worked pretty well as well. There were only a couple of things that I missed on first sight, without highlights, but everything else was was intuitive and in a way felt more immersive without highlights and such. Story was interesting and there's some choices to make, but it's more if you wanna be a menace in the moment or be nice, and following interactions and the ending are the same no matter what. Graphically it looks pretty good, but a few times the characters felt a bit out of place.

April 2024

In my opinion, this is one of the best hand-drawn point and click adventure games out there. The sequel is equally good too. The story is captivating, the characters are likable, the visuals are beautiful and the gameplay is very good. If you like traditional point and click adventure games then you should try this game.
