제목에 뭔가 거창하게 붙어있지만
그냥 평범한 화면 클릭형 어드벤쳐

한글을 기본적으로 지원하는 게임으로
그래픽은 깔끔하니 좋지만
뭔가 스토리가 거창한 것도 아니고
퍼즐도 그리 썩 재미있는 건 아니라서 좀 미묘
(간혹 오히려 좀 쌩뚱맞은 것도....)
플레이 타임도 좀 짧은 느낌이고...

이런 아기자기한 거 좋아하시는 분은 모르겠지만
개인적으로는 비추

독특한 시스템이라고는 찾아볼 수 없는 전형적인 포인트 앤 클릭 어드벤쳐. 아니, 사실 어드벤쳐라기보다는 미니게임식으로 나열된 퍼즐들을 푸는 퍼즐 게임에 가깝다.

스토리도 지극히 전형적이고 시스템적으로도 특별한 점이 없고 퍼즐도 특별히 기발하거나 재밌지도 않은 딱히 장점을 찾기 힘든 게임.

거기에 덤으로 한시간 조금 넘는 시간이면 엔딩을 볼 수 있는 지극히 짧은 플레이타임까지.

공짜로 얻었다면 한 번쯤 해볼만하긴 하지만 돈 주고 사서 할만한 요인은 찾을 수가 없었다.

지원 언어에 한국어가 있고, 싸서 사 보긴 했는데...한 20년 전 게임 하는 기분이 듬;
싼 맛에 사긴 했는데 추천은 못하겠다..

잠시 막힐때도 있지만 무난한 퍼즐

불친절하기 짝이없다. 할인해서 천삼백원에사서 망정이지 원 가격에 샀으면 정말 후회할뻔. 3천원 이상의 값어치는 없다.
힌트의 전개성은 전혀 없고 (쇠사슬을 게가 끊는다거나 뜬금없는 퍼즐 요소 등)
스토리 조차 없다.. 뭐 이런 게임에 스토리를 바라는것도 너무하긴 한데 너무 심각하다.
힌트도 불친절하고..
그냥 아무데나 클릭해서 깨는 방탈출 좋아하면 추천

good game!

Hamlet (or “the Last Game without MMORPG Features, Shaders and Product Placement”, which is likely one of the worst video game titles ever conceived), is a point in click adventure game loosely inspired by Shakespeare's classic play of the same name. Its goal is clearly to lend a more comedic angle to the tragedy, but the result is something that comes off as both underbaked, and exceedingly dumb.

Aside from a few characters sharing names from the original Hamlet, and a few key parallel plot points, Hamlet the game is basically an entirely different, less involved story that on the whole is rather irrelevant and constrained to a few brief between act cutscenes.

The rest of the game is a pure single screen adventure game, by which I mean every puzzle is contained within the one screen of the game it takes place on with no collecting of objects or backtracking of any sort. This isn’t an awful way to construct your puzzles as it makes it impossible to get lost or overwhelmed by having everything right in front of you at all times, but it also creates a very constricting spectrum of the sorts of puzzles you can create. Or at least that’s the case with Hamlet, whose puzzles range from tedious obscurity, frustrating clicking exercises, or downright stupidity. They aren’t challenging in any clever way, and mearily stand as obstacles between you and the next screen.

And this is Hamlet’s ultimate issue: nothing in the game is smart, well designed, or the tiniest bit fun. It took me an hour and a half to complete and not once did I feel anything less than complacent boredom as I mundanely made my way through the game hoping it would soon be over, which thankfully was a wish soon answered.

Well, Steam says I have 3.3 hours on record for this game, but that's mainly because I went afk for 2 hours with the game still running.

The game is really short. It literally has 25 puzzles. Yes, you can actually count them. Is it good though? I found the artwork quite nice, but that really depends on what taste you have. The humour was okay, the premise was funny. Sound, however, is almost non-existent, and the few "boink" sounds get a bit annoying after a while.

I wouldn't recommend it for full price, but if you get it in a bundle or on sale, it's kind of fun.

What a cute game! First of all the name made me giggle and was the first thing I've noticed before the cute artwork. I've enjoyed this puzzle Point & Click game which is based on William Shakespeare's Hamlet with a twist. The story starts off when Claudius killed the king and took the crown, not only that but he forced Ophelia, Hamlet's girlfriend to marry him. But of course Prince Hamlet will not let the evil man take everything from him, he will avenge the death of his parents and save his girlfriend, however, something fell from the sky and changed the whole story. A new hero appeared and accidentally landed on Hamlet, so he had to take the job instead and save the princess.

It is a funny game. There is no dialogue between the characters or voice-overs, yet it delivered nicely. The hero from a place to another, each area and room has a unique puzzle to solve, if you click on him he'll give you a hint-sometimes. And there is a charging hint on the bottom of the screen. Puzzles are not difficult, but some of them need more hints or quick acting (clicking) like the last boss.

It has five chapters, and 5 stages each, 25 puzzles in total. The main menu music was a little bit annoying as it kept looping, but after starting the game the music started to get better, although it is limited, there are more ambient sounds than music which I'm fine with.

Pros:
+Cute artwork.
+Funny wordless story and moments.
+Variety of puzzles.
+Kids friendly.
+Good price for a short game (last for an hour and a half if you don't use a guide)
+Trading Cards.

Cons:
-Limited music.
-No stage select.
-Single profile.
-No steam achievements.


This game is really fun, especially if you have kids, you can easily play it with them and have some nice family time. I wouldn't mind playing a new game from this series as they showed what could happen next.

You can finish this game in less than an hour if you use a guide, but since I haven't used any, it took me around an hour and a half to solve all puzzles. It is not a bad length for such a game. Reminds me of Tiny Echo and Lilly looking through a lot. I do recommend it to people who enjoy puzzles and fun artwork!

In Hamlet you play the part of a time traveler who inadvertently squelches the real Hamlet with his time machine and thus decides to take his place as the hero of the story: you'll be solving puzzles in five different chapters made up of five levels each.
While sporting some nice art and a quirky humour Hamlet can sadly quickly turn into an exercise in frustration due to its obtuse puzzles and somewhat useless hint system.

PROS:

-nice art style

-quirky sense of humour permeates the whole game

-some puzzles are interesting and offer a fair challenge

CONS:

-apart from the title and characters the Hamlet theme is basically never touched upon

CONS:

-most puzzles have an obtuse design and are very vague in how they function. Sometimes you have to click more than once, sometimes the clicking is timed, other times you have to memorize a quite lengthy sequence or just try and make sense of very vague ambiental clues...I honestly managed to solve a couple puzzles simply by randomly clicking all elements once I was frustrated enough

-no way to know what you can actually interact with in each screen, leading to random clicking all over in every scene

-the hint system is fairly bad, not only you have to wait five full minutes before you can get said single hint but its quality ranges from feeding you the solution to a drawing as vague as the puzzle itself

-not much in the way of a story and the characters offer very little apart from their name

-quite short, unless you get stuck on a puzzle you'd be done in 1,5/2 hours

I really appreciated Hamlet's tongue in cheek take on the genre, its quirky humour, nicely drawn art and first few puzzles: but things soon got frustrating when logic got thrown out of the window and I started facing puzzles that required me to decipher a few extremely vague hints and hopefully understand what I was supposed to do. A few puzzles also require you to very quickly click certain items before they disappear and the split second timing involved can get aggravating aswell. There's a fine line between a challenging puzzle and an obtuse, frustrating one and I often felt as if Hamlet crossed said line way too many times to stay enjoyable.

All this is made worse by the hint system, waiting five minutes for the hint if you're already stuck on a puzzle is not fun and, once opened, the hint was sometimes as bad as the puzzle it was supposed to help with thus leaving me bashing my head on the problem or just trying to find an external guide.

It honestly says alot about the puzzle design when, after finishing the game, I still have no idea of the logic behind three puzzles as I simply solved them randomly clicking their elements while waiting for the hint to appear. For its sale price of a dollar Hamlet wasn't a total waste of my time or money but its problematic puzzles and barebones story make it an hard game to recommend.
