Book Quest

UPDATE: 16 Hours After My Review Below: This developer is DELETING posts in his forums from people mentioning legitimate bugs in his game and asking about work-arounds or when he will fix them. Rather than responding to the issues or stating that he is working on resolving the beyond frustrating problems for players, he is simply just deleting these posts!! ...This is NOT a good sign or the behavior of a good indie developer. ----------------------------------------------- ARGHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I put up with extremely tedious combat, boring RPG story lines, and mind numbing puzzles to try and get to the "dragon".. only to face the most broken game I think I've ever seen on a screen full of timed jump platforms. I had ZERO control, there was no response from the game to the buttons and directions I was pressing. It's almost as if the developer purposely trolled his paying players here. It really is THAT bad! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMghXfM79RM I was going to give this game an "Effort Is Obvious" and tell the developer he just needs to work a lot on this game to make sure that it's fun to play and not nearly as boring and tedious... until I reached that part ri…

Unfortunately a very bad game. It's so boring I was literally falling asleep while playing, and that is not a joke. I was misled by the charming retro pixel style. Feels unfinished. Glad it was only $5

I am nearly ashamed that I got some interest in this game , go play the other game you had in mind please Also nearly half the achievements are broken , not only on pc Game is broken I couldnt give the fisherman the 5 crabs the Y prompt appears but nothing happens , tried million times , ridicolous! avoid this terrible one! Dev of the game is hiding and dont give a F ... wow very professional

Click the video above to see some of the gameplay, mechanic and hear my thoughts on the game. Book Quest is a Pixel RPG that has a lot of things going for it and somethings hindering it. Let's dive in to this... The Positive: It has that classic pixel zelda'ish look to it that makes it easy on the eyes. The music is funky, fun and catchy. It has unique side scrolling parts that mix-up the play from the dominant top-down view. There are a variety of items, enemies and things to do that give that RPG/Quest itch a good scratch. The Negatives: The game is way to ridged with its structure. For example, I have a 40 berries in my inventory; the npc needs 20 to make a pie. I have to go and collect 20 new berries in order to complete the quest. Also, you have to do everything in a sequence. I made it back to town but couldn't visit the blacksmith or fishing guy without completing numerous other quest before being allowed to interact with them. Also, there's a lot of backtracking where a run option would be a gift from the gods. Overall, it isn'…
