Appointment with FEAR (Standalone)

Bad CYOA. No overall story or narration only goal you have to meet in 3 days and then you jump from event to event hoping you picked right one, or look guide online. Also not being able to choose your own superhero name is idiotic. Only thing I can barely praise is artstyle.

Tags: Adventure - Choose Your Own Additional Tags: Delete Local Content & Remove from Library TLDR: Clunky UI, mediocre to fair narrative, strict scripting, stiff mechanics, weaksauce universe and setting and scattered progression in the form of hidden easter eggs inside dialogue branches. Its nice. You get a multiple layers of repeatable activities in which you gather clues. Once in a while you can attempt a solve, by following a clue, in the hope of stepping up to a mission to stop the big boss. Game keeps track of stats for you. There is a comic book delivery to everything. On the other hand, the writing was pretty canned, the choices were often fairly limited, either because of lack of options, or because it all depends on a diceroll/statcheck or because options are divided by character class, meaning for example if you picked the gadget guy, you will pick the gadget option in all likelyhood. The user interface is clunky all around, you cannot attempt a solve whenever you want and must wait for a prompt to show up. Following where you are in the dialogue trees, and seeing your clues as they relate to each other is all done mentally which is a bother because the game is not interesting enough to warrant you doing that. The combat is all turn based rock paper scissor RNG nonsense. None of the characters including the protagonist felt like they had any real motivations or personalities. Everyone is just a caricature of something we've seen done better in a proper superhero narrative elsewhere. Removed for declutter.

Encontro Marcado com o MEDO é um dos livros da série Aventuras Fantásticas publicada no Brasil pela Editora Marques Saraiva. O remake em forma de "livro jogo eletrônico" é perfeito, fiel ao extremo ao livro original, o que é bom (exatamente o que eu esperava) --- falando do jogo em si (comparativamente aos outros da série) ele só não é mais difícil que "Nave Espacial Traveler" pois tem aquele sistema de você conseguir estar na hora certa no lugar certo e com o poder certo para conseguir os dados necessário para saber o local e hora do "ataque terroristas" da associação malvada FEAR (MEDO) .. e cá entre nós, ter que jogar dezenas de vezes até ter a sorte de estar no lugar certo pode ser meio frustrante, se você nunca jogou outros da série, sugiro começar pelos outros, mas para quem já jogou todos em papel e está querendo reviver a série agora, vale a pena certamente.

可互动的超级英雄漫画。这类游戏如果做好了，将会像电影《蜘蛛侠平行宇宙》一样成功。可惜这个游戏不论是剧情方面还是视觉效果方面做的都不行（其实根本就没什么视觉效果）,无聊到想睡觉，还不如直接去看漫画。

[h1] A very fancy way to play this classic gamebook[/h1] This standalone version seems different to the one in Fighting Fantasy Classics. If you were hoping to see dice rolls and calculate your STAMINA/SKILL/LUCK, you will be very surprised that you won't. It's all generated for you and there is a bit of cosmetic choices only at the beginning. As you should probably know, this game is based on Steve Jackson's Gamebook where you get to play a superhero and need to foil the supervilains' plans. It is based and is definitely NOT a 1:1 reproduction of the book. While it follows more or less the flow and you have the same way to beat the game, it's presented in a very fancy way. It has a very cartoony (to not say like a comic) approach and your choices are shown as vignettes instead of turning pages. It has a nice flow but due to the gamebook's original difficulty, you might fail a lot and in the end, it can be a bit repetitive to go through the same vignettes showing over and over (some with very tacky dialogues) when with a book, you can just skip completely reading the paragraph. A lot of effort was made to try to make it very flashy, the music is very good and matches the theme perfectly. Even how the menu opens and close is an homage to the superhero comic book style. The plot with its fancy villains is the same as the gamebook and it will never win a Nobel Prize in writing but thanks to its many additional images, it's brought more than ever to life. You get to choose at the beginning between 4 different super powers and even if some parts will be the same, there will be many changes and new possibilities that open in those playthroughs. This can be recommended only to Appointment with FEAR fans! It might be too different from its source for Gamebook fans and it might be too complicate for superhero/comic book fans. If you loved the gameplay of the original book AND the mood around it, then this will be perfect for you! Basically, to enjoy it, you must think of it as a way to attract more fans, to make something more exciting rather than just scanning the book's page and call it a day!

Весело, конечно, стиль старых комиксов и джеймсбондовских приключений, но крайне нелогичное повествование и прохождение в целом. Мир можно спасти, если допить чашку кофе, а не смотреть, что там срочного по работе прислали. Иногда есть выбор из вариантов А, Б, В, где можно либо сначала исследовать А и Б, а потом без проблем выбрать В, а есть выбор, где нужно сделать только один выбор и из контекста не понятно, что на самом деле сделает герой. В общем, логика плохих квестов с нелогичными головоломками. Но пару часов с интересом поразбирался, просто разочаровался в конце.
