Arise: A Simple Story

Arise: A Simple Story

Super Mario 3D World, if everything weren’t cats, they removed the Wii U gamepad, and wasn’t Super Mario 3D world

Random title cause I felt like it. I’m not sure on whether to give a ‘recommended’ or ‘not recommended’ for this game, cause it’s a 50/50 split between aspects of this game that I liked, and the ones that infuriated me.

Pros:

  • The Level Designs are amazing. Most games with a persistent time-switching mechanic only have 2 versions of the same map that show the past and the future, and pressing a button transports you to one or the other, but this game lets you slowly see the polygons shift whilst giving you the feeling of manually seeking and rewinding time like it’s a tape recorder. While most puzzles require you to only go back and forth between 2 points in time and freeze it, some puzzles

    ! (like the rolling boulder or the falling log in level 3) have you constantaneously scrub time and walk at the same time.

However, something went wrong. You can't remember your mission and the machine that brought you here is broken. Your only clues are vague memories, along with a name; La Mora. You have to piece together your mission, your memory, and your wits, before time as we know it, is gone for good!

--- Very cool hard game! *– [Real player with 3.9 hrs in game](http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198078872964)* --- ![Candleman: The Complete Journey](https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/591630/header.jpg "") ## Candleman: The Complete Journey I loved this game and as you can see by my time, I really had to persevere to complete it. Candleman is a delightful, moderate platformer with difficult bits, much easier to play with a controller. I was on a keyboard, and being very clumsy and poorly co-ordinated, I died so many times it wasn't funny. Janner66 has already given a comprehensive review on the mechanics of the game. I agree that it can become repetitive if you have to play a section multiple times before you succeed. In some areas you have to be very precise and that can be rage inducing!! *– [Real player with 27.8 hrs in game](http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198812162622)* What a great little adventure game. Simple mechanics done really creatively and its pretty long, even if you were to speedrun it would take you 2+ hours so you're getting a good amount of content, but it's not a very hard game. The story is a simple heroes journey but it leads you through a bunch of interesting environments with mini puzzles, new obstacles, and new gameplay features that keep it interesting. The levels are short, under 5 mins each, and each area doesn't overstay its welcome. Candleman is above all else an interesting original platformer that's done right. Dont expect fancy mechanics because the only controls in this game are space, control, and wasd, but there is some great level design and the art looks perfect for the style. There's little poems for the level names and the story actually gives quite a bit of character to this faceless, nameless, legged candle. This game looks like something you'd see a preview of 5 years ago and never actually see the game come out. The only real bad thing I have to say about this game is that your character walks too slow. I thoroughly enjoyed this game all the way through. Give it a shot if you like platformers and adventure games, you won't be disappointed. *– [Real player with 21.2 hrs in game](http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197970282291)* --- ![DREAMERS](https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/1528060/header.jpg "") ## DREAMERS #### Fetch Your Adventures **DREAMERS will lead you on an emotional journey into a colorful adventure, where will be also adversities, moments of doubts, and powerful discoveries.** All starting with a mysterious letter from grandma, that will force the protagonist to explore more than his known land.

Cheers Mike aka Hamster On Coke --- ![Moncage](https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/1195290/header.jpg "") ## Moncage Great visual puzzles. And not only visual. Admirably crafted, Moncage really makes you think inside the box, and is challenging enough that I had to take a couple of breaks to figure out solutions. Some reviewers might confuse you by claiming, in the same sentence, that the game is too short and that they used the hint system. Unsurprisingly, if you solve all puzzles by yourself, i.e., if you play the game, the playing time doubles. The only missing feature is a post-game chapter selector. It would let us hunt for our missed secrets without the need to replay the entire game. *– [Real player with 10.0 hrs in game](http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198201620245)* Masterfully crafted puzzle game that takes place on five sides of a cube as you piece together the story through interconnecting scenes. **Moncage** is a relaxing perspective-based puzzle game with pleasant visuals, touching story told without words, and relaxing soundtrack. There is an alternate ending that requires players to find all hidden photos and replay the story a second time while keeping an eye out for ways "to think outside the cube". About 2 to 5 hours to complete depending on how often you use the hint system or unlocking achievements. A must try for puzzle enthusiast [10/10] *– [Real player with 5.7 hrs in game](http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198068938289)* --- ![Adventures in Morality: An Interactive Case Study](https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/1379590/header.jpg "") ## Adventures in Morality: An Interactive Case Study First to the creator(s) of the ICS, you should be aware that there appears to be a bug with the cassette recordings. Every time you find one and play it, it also plays all the ones that you have found and played before, simultaneously, making understanding anything pass the third one nearly impossible. Onto the review. This is an interesting experience. The idea being that an AI is the one conducting the Case Study on you is both intriguing and perhaps a bit alarming and I mean both of those ideas in as to whether you accept that at face value or if you accept that as part of a fictional narrative. I was actually most interested in finding and reading the log notes about the "childhood" and growth of said AI, and I got a good snicker at the mention of bonono monkies (i dont have to google, i actually saw a N.G show on them so totally got it ;) As for the Subject of the case study, this idea of sympathy types, while the particular labels used to describe said types might be newish, the idea behind it is not. I was reading about where people fall into self, tribe, and human kind in self help and spiritual enlightenment books back in the 80's and 90's. And those authors were NOT representing the knowledge as something new; but, rather as something very old and mostly forgotten or purposely suppressed (Those in power naturally tend to keep those below them divided and weakened through the use of Us vs them, whether thats Individualism vs Communism or Tribalism in one form or another.) The one thing none of those authors ever did was threaten to use the knowledge being shared to bring about an apocalypse and try to divide up the world based on results of some case study. Really not sure what to make of that. *– [Real player with 0.8 hrs in game](http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198053428824)* Opening video has a couple good lines. The rest is random questions that don't make any sense as a test of morality. Not to mention that just by walking around you get 80+ 'Humanity' rating. *– [Real player with 0.7 hrs in game](http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198134818106)* ---
