Feels like Myst, plays not like Myst, still pretty good.

Ghostrunner, but with cringe anime dialogues. 12/10.

This game is a trap. It lures you in by presenting a good first level and the general feel of a Myst-like adventure, only to drop all the facade in the next levels. This game's puzzles can be divided in two categories: extremely convoluted busywork that wastes your time or "figure what the ♥♥♥♥ the developer wants from you". Sometimes both. The latter are the ones that trigger me the most. I still have no idea how the bridge puzzle in level 2 works and the gear puzzle in level 4 is honestly guesswork. The level 2 gate puzzle is also guilty here: yes, there's a pattern for the gate itself, BUT before that you need to literally guess the segments on smaller circles. What broke me though was the windmill puzzle in level 6. I'm sorry, but checking EVERY SINGLE COMBINATION that rotates the fan that it also rotates the other 4 fans correctly is just... why? At the same time, the gate puzzle in level 4 looks cryptic, but turns out to be just a boring guesswork too. And ball puzzle takes twice the amount of time it should due to this game's controls. Also the way they ask you to repeat the colored totem pole puzzle in level 2 just screams "padding". The hints also suck, mostly stating obvious things.
Fun thing is that odd levels don't have that problem, mostly because they only have like a single long and tedious puzzle. Although now that they patched level 3 it may become worse.
Speaking of patches, they need to iron out technical stuff. None of the options to decrease graphics quality seems to work.

Monokuma :3

Too short. Too simple. Basically the same plot as the original game, but without the twist (and no, even if you never played the original the game will kindly tell you its main twist right in the beginning). It looks gorgeous though, so A+ to the art team. Overall, however, it's not great.

This game doesn't exist.

The ending was very rushed. It feels like there should have been a whole chapter there, but istead the game just skipped to the anticlimatic "last boss" fight. A lot of the loose ends weren't tied either. Overall, however, a very solid adventure game with beautiful music, fun characters and an interesting story. I certainly hope the series will continue and won't need a Kickstarter campaign anymore.

Одна из немногих игр, позволяющих настроить геймпад так, как тебе нужно, без всяких костылей и потери функциональности. Однозначно + уже за это.
