Ancient Knowledge

I loved everything about this game. It really gives you an immersive experience into ancient India with all the exquisite Moorish palaces and buildings. The music added to the ambience. You are on a quest to find ancient knowledge in the hills of India. You come across tablets which tell you about an ancient Sumerian culture. You jump, climb and paddle your way through different cities until you find what you've been looking for. Puzzles were medium difficulty, platforming was medium with some pretty difficult bits. You have to find mandalas scattered about the places to activate doors to open. You have light puzzles to solve and floating archers to dodge. You have a water hall to solve (took me a while) and an astronomers hall to solve with different star signs. I had to ask the developer for the solution! Thanks Oleg! I struggled with the music puzzle because of my deafness, but got through. I didn't get all the achievements....only got half of them. Must be hidden treasures somewhere! Many say the graphics are low poly and the hero doesn't have a face, but that never bothered me. No battle scenes, just strategy, puzzle solving and some nifty platforming! I struck no b…

Thank you for making this game. It's a casual puzzler with perfect atmosphere.

Clever intuitive puzzles with some light platforming. Charming underground city aesthetic. Fairly responsive controls, nice looking graphics. The only thing I didn't like was the sound design. The sound cuts in and out as you move between areas. https://youtu.be/-MZaH0_zHWE

I'm writing a review because so few have. The game is a puzzle platformer that brings to mind Prince of Persia or old school Tomb Raiders. In This game however, you are alone, no sand corrupted guards nor wildlife to brutalize you. You have the capacity to jump, activate stuff and throw a chakram that will be useful for a few puzzles. The environment is beautiful despite the low polygons count and many shots reminded me of classical Tomb Raiders level. There is not a lot of sound tracks in the game. It has a relaxing exotic middle east feel to it. It is kinda lacking in that regard but the game being really short means that you don't really get the time to get fed up with it. How long is the game was the reason why I wrote this review as in the other reviews I saw only people publishing the review just after launching the game and playing like half an hour or people having 15ish hours of playtime. The game is really only 3 hours long. Which isn't really a problem imo you just need to know what you are getting as of the time of this review it doesn't have any registered times on How long to beat. The lack of a guide to explain how to get all the achievements is a pity as well sinc…

Fun indie minimalist game! I was actually impressed, it gives a sense of adventure in a minimal and yet beautiful adventure. Simple game, simple controls, simple pleasures.
