Dis Pontibus

Dis Pontibus

Dis Pontibus is a fantastic and very difficult puzzle game! Exactly my kind of thing - nothing hidden, just “here’s the mechanics, here’s a puzzle, go solve it!” And with very few mechanics, Marcos has discovered a puzzle space that is wonderfully complex and full of interesting ideas. Patience and persistence are 100% required for some of the more difficult puzzles (one in particular took me about 4-5 hours - 2 hours in-game and the rest with pen and paper)!

I’m incredibly impressed that it’s entirely procedurally generated, as it felt like it had some of the great qualities I would only expect from a hand designed puzzle game - like a smooth difficulty curve, a progression of ideas from one puzzle to the next, and feeling like you’re gaining skills and knowledge as you go.

7/10, I can’t in good faith thumb this game down but it can get really annoying

It’s the kind of game that’s great to play while watching tv, in the vein of 2048, but can get really frustrating at times. Since it’s all randomly generated, it’s impossible for anyone to create a hint guide– with other hard puzzle games, like Stephen’s Sausage Roll or Baba Is You or Snakebird, I usually google the level number and peek at someone else’s solution if a level has me completely stumped, but that’s just completely impossible here. (I know that some people consider walkthroughs cheating, and that’s fair, but when I’m playing hard puzzles I tend to get fixated on an incorrect solution for hours and looking up a hint is the only way out). This is especially frustrating considering the fact that, unlike those games, this game only has ONE critical path through the world, no alternate routes, so I’ll end up bottlenecked on a puzzle, which makes me pray to god for a walkthrough, whereas in the games where walkthroughs ARE available the maps are non-linear so I can put off the hard levels

Nak Sim: Fallen Warriors

Nak Sim: Fallen Warriors

‘Nak Sim’, a place where people who have died in sorrow. ‘Sims’, the inhabitants of the depression, lived in peace, leaving behind their terrifying memories. But one day, a huge sword fell from the sky, and those who touched it were sucked into an unknown world. Some of them were able to come back alive, but they were no longer the same. They have a common strong power. And that sim became a focusless or evil man who lost his will to live and attacked others. Since then, the world inside the huge sword has been called the “Cursed Sword World,” and only those who have a strong desire for adventure and power have entered it.

And now you have fallen here. Would you overcome all the trials and turn your heart into a peaceful place again? Or would it be a power-cursed evil?

‘Nak Sim: Fallen Warriors’ is a third-person roguelike action game.

Dull game, very basic

I can’t explain the reason I didn’t like it any better than that

Maybe watch a game play video before buying.

ARIDA: Backland’s Awakening

[8/10]

Review in english first, portuguese below

Análise em inglês primeiro, e em português abaixo

JOGADO TOTALMENTE NO LINUX - PLAYED COMPLETELY ON LINUX

======================================

Árida is a very regionalist game about the worst period of drought in northeastern Brazil in the region known as “Caatinga” (blacklands). It is a short semi-linear exploration and survival game, with cartoonish aesthetics that resemble drawings from that place and age (“literatura de cordel”) in sharp contrast against the looming sense of dread that permeates the entire game - you see death everywhere, the Sun quickly exhausts your thirst and hunger bars, specially at noon.

Esse jogo brasileiro de sucesso se passa nos arredores de Canudos, na Bahia. É um jogo de sobrevivência e de ficção que retrata esse contexto histórico em que muitos brasileiros do sertão nordestino acabam migrando na época de seca intensa de terra árida para sobreviver. Com a protagonista não é diferente, e com ela você experiencia um pouco de como essas pessoas lutam para sobreviver a esse ambiente e você encara junto com ela a jornada de ir até Canudos encontrar seus pais e buscar uma vida nova.

Blade of Arena - 劍鬥界域

Blade of Arena - 劍鬥界域

I have updated this review on May 21st 2021’s update as I felt there was something particularly important to say about the new floating islands and its multiplayer.

A game of survival in an open world with combat centered around close combat using bladed weapons (hence the title). Yes, even hammers; their blades just don’t cut but beat your nose out of your face instead.

As someone who had already been bugtesting the game for months before the Early Release, here is my review:

-I find there to be a good deal of customization within the game. It starts in the menu where you can edit your character on various options. Most that can be colored uses a color wheel, which allows you to get a very specific shade of any color.

Dungeon Highway

Dungeon Highway

I love the simplicity of this game! Really well designed and probably even more fun on an iPad or iPhone!

Great game!!

Here is a quick video review of the game so you can see for yourself!!

I would definitely recommend Dungeon Highway. It is very fun game that I think anyone could enjoy. You can earn experience to get multiple players, and improve your score to even get on the scoreboards! For me, I think about seven dollars was worth it. I play it all the time and so far, I haven’t seen many negative sides to this game. This is a great game, and I would definitely recommend that you buy it.

Elva the Eco Dragon

Elva the Eco Dragon

While the concept of a dragon teaching how to care for our environment sounds cute, the game seems to be in need of some cleanup of its own first.

Note: This review was written Feb. 7, 2021 and published originally at SaveOrQuit.com on Feb. 11, 2021 prior to the release of version 1.5.

As a professional educator in the scientific study of the natural world, Elva the Eco Dragon seemed like a game with high potential to dovetail nicely with my day job. Unfortunately, what seemed to be a cute and engaging 3D action-adventure on the surface fails to go deeper in terms of gameplay experience or learning.
