The Last Islands of Man

The Last Islands of Man

I wanted to like this game, but I can’t recommend it in its current state.

I played this game after watching a critique of it and liking the idea of a game which is brutally difficult, time-bound, and allowed for different classes for your own experience. The game is brutally difficult, but not in a fair way, its just blatantly unbalanced at quite a few points. The initial premise is that the world is being overrun in water, and people and monsters are fighting for the last few scraps of land that remain, you as the hero, are trying to find a solution. That said let’s go over the individual points.

Information / Review English

Eggnog Incorporated is a Simulation Game that was developed and published by Blue Pin Studio.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2348082155

Gameplay / Story

A whole normal working day in a factory, that is something you always wanted to experience? Then listen carefully, because in Eggnog Incorporated your dream can come true. The game begins with a small aptitude test, which is quickly completed and then a small tutorial follows that introduces you to the game. Which factory should it be? I know the game is set in an eggnog factory and you’re an employee who works there. Part of your job is to ensure that all of the eggnog complies with the code and is made correctly as the controller, as incorrect production harms the business and your reputation. Before your time, this was the case and the boss didn’t like it at all. As your adventure progresses, more game mechanics follow and the plot takes surprising turns, I only say bomb disposal. But I won’t go into any further details in order not to spoil. At the beginning it all starts with a Box Art and Nog Color to make sure that the power supply stays on … The graphics are represented in a pixel art which is suitable for the whole. The music fits the game perfectly and is also calming at the same time.

Great game I’ve been enjoying and replaying ! After playing “Stories Untold” and “Open Sorcery”, I was looking for another game that would allow me to “type in” my way through the story ! It uses all your imagination to find your way, find the clues and avoid the “Game Over” traps. Original and excellent kind of game !

Placebo Love

Placebo Love

A beautiful game about different forms of love. For those who like games focused on the story more than the gameplay, this is definitely a game you will love. It has a casting of very touching characters, and I found myself loving each one of them at the end of their bonds, even though I hated some at the beginning. They are very well written, and each of them brings a particular touch to the story. The plot remains interesting all along, making you theorize more than you’d think you would at first.

This is a game I have enjoyed playing.

Gameplay: It’s an interactive decision-making VN type game, with little action and lots of text. If you enjoy good plot and characters, then this is a great game.

Graphics: The in-game graphics are exactly as they appear in the trailer and screenshots. I personally like it.

Audio: Very good soundtrack; I listen to it a lot. There’s a lot of really sweet music and it doesn’t get boring.

Story: 10/10, no spoilers. Each character has their own story and many of them connect to each other; the game is very well written.

Vacation: dayOFF

Vacation: dayOFF

Inspired by the Doki-Doki Literature Club VN, but fall short of expectation due to technical issue (skip button doesn’t function properly) and broken English translation. It’s a bit sad because the story is actually not bad. (Even the English translation is meh, you may still able to grasp the point of the plot, if u have patience).

Another disappointing point from this game is the fact that you can’t go back to scratch or new game once u unlocked “the second life” route unless you clear all the data. If you play this game with the aim to get all the achievements, make sure you have a save data from the “first life” route or else, you wont be able to get all the achievements. (I email the Dev about how to get the achievements, and although the Dev can’t speak English, he made the effort to reply mine)

This is some of the worst translation work I’ve ever seen. The game is constantly using the wrong pronouns for everyone and/or the point of view of the narrator is constantly shifting and never telling the player who is thinking. Explanations of things going on frequently wander into “what did I just read” territory. I could scarcely even understand what happened save for the most obvious parts. While I never skipped any unread text, once I was able to start skipping previously read sections, I was already checked out and just wanted to get to the ending. There’s still some bits of Korean left over and even names can’t be consistently spelled correctly. The only positive is the art for the characters and CGs.
