Dissimilar

Very engaging story, great art and sound design. The castle you explore feels large and ominous. The combat is a puzzley affair with deterministic enemies, though I do wish instead of redoing fights you could just "take your best score" more or less, since the only thing that carries between fights is your Plasma level. Mostly I'm just very engaged with the atmosphere and wanting to see where the plot is going. It's about mysteries and AIs, and what's real or fake, and who knows what you can even trust in this game. E: Finished game now. Absolutely phenomonal. Follows through on its themes and story beats extremely thoroughly, both mentally and emotionally engaging. The combat encounters remain interesting and fun throughout as well, though some of the harder bosses do feel a bit trial and error at times.

Dissimilar is a great story-heavy adventure game with puzzle-like tactical encounters. In combat, the protagonist primarily serves a support role and she can print robot allies on certain spaces. You can only have up to 3 units (plus the protagonist) in play at a time and you cannot have multiple copies of the same unit at the same time. If an ally dies, you can reprint them (without any buffs/debuffs they may have had before death) or print an entirely different unit instead, though usually at the cost of some of the protagonist's limited health. Health is only restored at certain terminals, which also reset every encounter, and you sometimes need to use health to open doors, so battles heavily revolve around preventing the protagonist from taking hits from enemies while also winning without using too much health resummoning units. Dissimilar also gives you plenty of tools to support a wide variety of playstyles, including several creative in-universe options which can break the combat system in half for players who prefer to focus on the story and exploration elements. Like many stories about robots and AI, Dissimilar explores themes revolving around the nature of humanity and …

Un excellent jeu, entre TRPG et jeu de puzzle. La variété des talents spéciaux et personnages débloqués permet une variété de stragégies et de tactiques ; la direction artisitique est de qualité, tant au niveau des graphismes que de la bande sonore. Les aspects d'exploration permettent de varier les défis sans pour autant se sentir jamais dépassé par les événements. Le scénario est bien écrit, telle une bonne nouvelle d'anticipation. En résumé, un jeu à découvrir, qui mérite l'attention des amateurs des genres qu'il explore.

I only scraped the surface of the mystery but the presentation was quite nice. I had to check and was very happy to find that the game is claimed to be fully hand drawn. The style is very appealing and holds a sort of melancholy to it. The story set in the future supplies some interesting tech concepts and ideas of what a future might hold. I didn't make it to any battles but from the trailer they look to be interesting. Very interested in hopping back into this one. My only "negative" is that during some scenes there is text over just a black screen and with all this great art I think it would benefit to put that text over an image of some sort. I recommend this if you are feeling melancholy and would like some mystery.

Bretagnepunk 2077 Game is good and has an incredible vibe Unfortunately I reached a point where I'm stuck behind two fight level 3 and I'm too bad and idiot so I don't even understand how I'm supposed to do it :(

I can say that Dissimilar was a fun game with interesting mechanics that I really enjoyed; the story is nice, and the battles have a certain difficulty. The art style is amazing, and the music is very enjoyable to listen to.
