Bear With Me - Episode One

Bear With Me - Episode One

Well, for some reasons I played this game many months ago, more than a year, and then the third episode came out few months ago so I bought it as soon as possible and played it, enjoyed it a lot and so on.. now the collector’s edition’s out on Humble Bundle as far as I know.

Anyways this game’s is a great hidden object/graphic adventure with an awesome story; I loved everything here although the whole game setting is probably too restricted thus don’t allowing you to explore as much as I wanted to.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is a clawsome game that is impawsible to furget. Having a charming yet grizzly atmosphere that you won’t find too polarizing, I just couldn’t bear to put it down.

Sorry, I’ll stop the bear puns now.

Promise.

Ahem, so ‘Bear with Me’ is an episodic point and click game with a heavy noir detective theme. But you know that from reading the description, and really if you’re interested by that idea then you’re probably going to enjoy this game. Yet if you’re still a bit sceptical then let me assure you, it is worth the time to go through.

The forgotten phobia

The forgotten phobia

The forgotten phobia is another template flip style game from asset flippers/scammers, Piece of Voxel. This time it looks like they’ve ripped off a lazy 2D retro pixel template for a horror/adventure platformer game. Resolution and controls are locked and they used ugly retro pixel “art”, probably because that’s what the template they copied had. The game is in Russian and doesn’t appear to have any English translation, but the language of bad games and asset flip scams is universal.

An important note: Piece of Voxel are known asset flippers and have previously taken other developers work and put it on Steam in an attempt to scam gamers and get paid for someone else’s effort. An example of Piece of Voxel doing this is Hoples, which is really “Pixel Adventure 1 ”, written by the actual developers, Pixel Frog. Also, Top Truck Driver, which is really “Hill Racing Template ”, developed by Janko Knez.

恶灵退散 Go Back to Hell

the art style is cool and the sound track slaps but this is just an eye spy game for anyone thats confused by the description like i was, theres no instructions or dialog your just looking for the weird things in each image with no other context. so ya if plot is what your looking for and not just an ideal thing this isnt it but its nice none the less 3

Mystery Village: Shards of the Past

Mystery Village: Shards of the Past

Crim’s Humble Opinion Curator

Mystery Village: Shards of the Past feel like it still has some pretty sizable issues. You have to piece together parts of a story by finding these objects in a location. From the menu you can choose from two locations at a time. At each location there are ten rooms. You get a map and a task showing the five objects you need to find. In each room; you pan left and right across a screen. The ghosts while well designed pose no threat until you click and hold the mouse to perform an action. There are three actions you can do while scanning. Pick up an item, attack a ghost, or open a door.

No tutorial, no windowed mode, and I have no clue what I’m doing or why.

Adventure Light

Adventure Light

Adventure Light is a very atmospheric stylized puzzle side-scrolling game about a young boy named Steve. He is compelled to find his best friend Adam and, in his quest, he ventures onto the darkest paths of the mysterious forest.

Throughout the whole trip, you will encounter various interesting puzzles, which you will have to solve in order to keep moving. All the puzzles are designed as a combination of different elements of the environment that the main character interacts with. In particular: levers, boxes, platforms, carts, lamps, elevators, timers, doors, mills, pulleys, gears, and so on.

In order to make the trip even more enthralling, along the entire road, you will have an opportunity to find hidden plot items, that will reveal the details of this tangled story.

A special emphasis has to be placed on the atmosphere, given that it allows you to put yourself in the main character’s shoes and ultimately immerse in the fantasy world. The proper atmosphere in Adventure Light is established with the help of several key aspects, such as story, arts, color scheme, environment, forest sounds, and background music. All of them combined to allow the player to tap into the right mood and induce in him the right set of emotions.

UPDATE: June 7th 2021, I did a review on youtube on this BAD game and they gave me a copyright strike because they didn’t like the review. that was low and dirty. don’t go anywhere near this. they are horrible people.

Here’s my written review:

there’s nothing to do in this game, no objectives, no clues, only a flashlight that runs out fast, and no other batteries. it says almost all objects interactive, that’s a HUGE lie. maybe doors and a couple drawers that are ALL EMPTY and a couple phones that says “lighter fluid”. plus “you’ll get stuck behind doors, there is no save or checkpoint because there are no objective. read the game description it says. explore a spooky mansion and that’s all you get, you just walk around. this is a TOTAL RIP-OFF.

Okay so I disregarded the previous reviews and decided I’d give this a fair chance. I mean for $3 why not. I actually do not know if changes were made or if the other two just didn’t look but I found it easier to find items without the light because the little white dot is hard to see in light so you will miss an item. I only used the flashlight when it really was black and then turned it off, not sure how you were losing so much battery unless you keep it on all the time. there are other batteries in the house, and a lighter to light candles. I actually was enjoying it but then I tried saving which apparently is something you can’t do in this game, that feature is BROKEN. The phone is mistaken for lighter fluid…so not sure if you would ever need to refill or not but I was at near 100% and I lit 4 candles. Obviously I am not about to replay 45 minutes when your save button doesn’t work. You had an okay idea but fail to make a finnished product, I’ve also seen this before from another developer which makes me think you are them or just reusing someone elses stuff…refunded

Facility 47

Facility 47

I enjoyed the puzzles. The hints were useful if you weren’t sure where to go next, but maybe gave away too much information, so use with caution. I enjoyed the nod to the original two-word command dos games, which I started on. I could have wished for a longer game. There is plenty of room for an expanded mystery storyline and additional exploring. I would have enjoyed a longer game.

Real player with 4.9 hrs in game

facility 47 originally came out in 2014 on mobile platforms, made its way to pc a bit later, and to steam in 2020. it’s a somewhat lacking mobile port, but a fun point & click adventure overall.

the game is set in a research facility in antarctica. everybody seems to have disappeared, the base abandoned, and you find yourself in a locked cell. while trying to find a way out, you’ll solve various puzzles and find out what happened by reading journal entries, emails and such. luckily, there’s no timer or timed puzzles, nor enemies, combat or any other nonsense that would ruin puzzling.

Fatal Evidence: Art of Murder Collector’s Edition

I liked this game until I got to the Bonus content. Started off great but can’t finish the game. I came to a part where I am supposed to put a fuse in to restore power but won’t let me. Can’t go any further

I really enjoyed the last two games in this series so decided that I would also get this one. It’s a fun game with an interesting story line but there is some glitches that need to be fixed.

One is within the main game where you have to put a plan back together within a HOP and then the game crashes and then closes itself down, I did however find away around this by playing the match 3 mini-game. The other glitch that I have found is within the bonus chapter and this now means I can not finish the game, this glitch isn’t a puzzle or HOP it is something simple, by trying to put the fuse into the fuse box so that the electricity works, I have tried to do the bonus chapter a couple of times and tried to do it differently but still no luck.
