Cradle

I really liked the start of this game. Sci-fi setting, nice cozy yurt, trying to put a giant puzzle together. All things that make up games I like. Sadly, the gameplay quickly killed and detracted any good those aspects brought. Grabbing objects and using them has been a challenge. It was quite clunky. A few times I dropped objects and could hardly find them. Using items could be like having toddler arms where order of use matters. Furthermore, the cube games required a lot of finesse in moving objects which toddler arms don't seem to like. Though I could not motivate myself to make it to the end, I could see how if one has the patience or natural skill to navigate with the controls, the story seemed like it had a lot of potential. The environment seemed to be there. I just can't say for sure as I did not have the will to keep playing.

The sun hole in my chest throbs. I know the eagle's does as well. Rice rattles in a can. Black holes amble in the steppe. The rollercoaster dragon growls. The vase's upper body rests in the kitchen part on the tent. Eyescreen black, she isn't powered. I open the door. Tengri is no longer there, and yet the skies remain. The world swells from beauty. Cancerous blackness. The cubes seep plastic neon wickedness. I drown in their torrent, it sickens me. This flower seems fancy enough. Where's the UV flashlight to point at rocks in a grass sea? Maybe this time I won't drop at the crest of that hill? The world churns, it churns, it churns. It's 2011, and the levitram is not yet set on its track. It is not yet set. Not yet... PS You can finish the game but fail to solve it. The future of quests that never was. PPS I was thinking the other day, what games I'd like to ensure for posterity if it were in my power. Somehow, this was the first thing that sprang from the unconscious. I haven't played it in 11 years.

That's a big no. I've had a thing for Mongolia for years, I'm in love with the setting, and the vibe is great, so I had some hopes for this game, but oh my god everything else is abysmal. Borderline unplayable. I couldn't get very far so I can't speak about the story. But every technical aspect is a catastrophe : - constant stutter and framerate drops that will make you sick in minutes... stuttering that somehow can get improved if you plug in a controller ? Anyway, doesn't matter your computer. I have a very high end computer, even with quality dialed down to lowest, AA turned off, resolution turned below native, it still stutters every 5 to 10 seconds, even in interiors. - gameplay, gamefeel and controls are... Straight up terrible ? Just outdated ? Then it was already outdated by its release. Feels and plays like a 2000 something game, not a 2015 game. - non rebindable controls with QWERTY by default - mouse controls have some randomness. I don't know if they added in-game mouse acceleration, but sometimes mouse doesn't move, sometimes it moves too much. And from what I read on other reviews, the gameplay is going to be bad the whole game, and at some point infuriating, so... …
