Krystopia: Nova´s Journey

I played the first game, and whilst not great, it was fun enough. This one is nowhere near as fun. It's just slide and push puzzles, one after the other after the other. If that's your idea of a good time, then have at it. I got most of the way through before getting bored and annoyed.

Krystopia: Nova´s Journey is a mobile app that's been dumped on Steam as if it was a real PC game (it's not)... it's a cash grab from greedy mobile devs. This mobile app is a tapping adventure game where you tap on your iPhone screen to move around fixed levels, tapping on various puzzles, which are typically solved by tapping or swiping/dragging elements around until completed. There's a quirky and somewhat charming fantasy theme, but any value that might have had for a serious game is wasted with the low quality technical delivery and mobile phone centric application design. From a technical perspective, as a mobile app, this doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. The mobile app features lazy low-polygon "retro" assets, making this look like a barely functional 3D game from the mid 2000s. It's unclear why the developers weren't able to arrange high quality, high polygon count contemporary assets for the mobile app (although the requirement for this to run on low end mobile phones is a factor), and also irrelevant... what matters is that this looks bad as a result of their decisions, a compromise PC gamers shouldn't have to put up with…

The story and gameplay are boring, there are non-game breaking bugs here and there. The achievements don't work properly.

Cute and relaxing game, good puzzles too.

Much like it predecessor, it's pretty good but pretty short. There's an active narrative now, which gives reason to doing all of the puzzles, but takes away a bit from the serene nature of the first one. Otherwise is overall similar to the first game, so if you liked that you'll likely like this one.

Fun puzzle game, with a lot of puzzles: manipulating a lot of sliders and lichtsources. Unfortunatly the clumsy interface, view angle and pixel hunting , makes solving puzzels unnecessary difficult . The game contains bugs like most of the steam achievements don't unlock.!! Steam recommendation forces me to make a choice yes or no. Because of the problems and bugs I had with this game, I prefer neutral as recommendation.
