Depersonalization

мм запрошен возврат средств, надеюсь вернут. я люблю туториалы в играх. то есть было бы прям классно, если бы мне не пришлось тыкаться мыкаться, чтобы понять, что происходит. а что происходит не ясно не только относительно механики игры (там разобралась знаем плавали, но я не хочу лишний раз напрягать клетки своего мозга), а сюжета. мальчик мама замок дед, все больше не замок универ, едем обратно в замок, монстры - как драться х** поймешь кнопочек сто тыщ туториала все еще нет здоровье тратиться за две секунды - записки космос прошлое будущее (при чем прошлое - единственный правильный вариант, остальное приводит к концовкам где не ясно абсолютно ничего), теперь замок в прошлом все еще монстры - мое терпение закончилось на голой девочке в сундуке. короче имхо: если нет туториала, надо интегрировать его в сюжет, если сюжет раскрывается в незнакомом игроку мире, нужно тратить больше усилий на его раскрытие и погружение, иначе это просто температурный сон в плохом смысле, а не в смысле ууу деперсонализация коллективное бессознательное сюрреализм.

Edit: the more i play through it, the more i would say my review stands with the caveat, that i would not play more then $6 for this game. its fun, dont get me wrong, but on top of bugs, as ive gone through more modules ive found more and more dialogue that makes no sense, and while there are translation issues, these is not a result of bad translation. as such it negatively some of the modules and limits the amount of available good content. i still recommend the game, its a lot of fun. just dont pay $20 for it. Its definitely got some problems, its buggy, got some weird translation issues, and downright just has minimal english support. I really like it though and they did the best job of any game that ive tried so far in implementing call of cthulus systems.

Overall mechanics of the game is complex to understand at first like how it does dice rolls and numbers which i still don't completely understand coming from games like bg3 and the many different options available to you in combat. The biggest strong point of the game is definitely the story and its multiple endings which are not a slog and not too long to go through so its pretty easy to commit and finish them. However it very much is not a finished game as there are still missing translations and bugs in the controls which gives a bit of frustration while playing. Picking up the game at first wasn't easy as I had to look up how the dice rolls worked in the game before I was able understand how much risks some decisions took as there isn't really a proper tutorial to the game.

It's a Chinese Lovecraftian horror(lite) anime TTRPG sim(kinda). As ridiculous as the premise sounds; it somehow works. The translation isn't complete, but the translate app on my phone works well enough. The translations that have been done don't always make perfect sense, but overall for a story involving time travel and unknowable things beyond the limits of human comprehension; it works. All in all, the modules that are here are pretty good, so far. There's a whole system running under the hood that has some potential. Pick up a copy, support the devs. By the sound of things; they need it, and I'd like to see what this game can really do.

Story is awesome

This game is a great example of great idea being tigthened by lack of the funds. And while it is pretty much unlikely that we will see more official modules, I think what currently available in this game is more than justifices its asking price, even with luckluster translation. Modules quality can vary, but overall all exploration modules are very much interesting playing first time when you have no idea what to expect, after which you can start hunting for true ending. Although getting true ending on first run can be unexpected disadvantage since it kind of kills desire to replay as all early endings are for the most part bad ones story wise. Doesn't change the fact that getting true ending in Carnival when I played it first time was quite satisfying My ranking for modules is as following: 1. Carnival - A veryh lengthy experience (2-4 evenings) with tons of locations to explore, not to mention artifacts to find. Story itself fumbles at the end a bit with pacing, but overall it is quite great mystery, although I do not recommend this module as first one since some battles can be challenging without extra partners or spell protection. Because this module is long and its difficult…
