Game is too hard for me and difficult to understand.
十几个小时打完了全成就,游戏体验还是不错的,唯一的缺点就是没存档功能,要打全结局真的很痛苦,同样的全流程剧情打底要体验完三遍。我把最好的结局留到了最后一周目,无疑泪崩了。如果比较耐心或者喜欢超现实互动体验感的(邪恶冥刻,生死敲定之类),肯定会喜欢这款游戏!
——记录:《Buddy Simulator 1984(伙伴模拟器 1984)》,April 2026 Humble Choice月包,2026/04/08入。 ——元叙事心理恐怖小品,以 80 年代复古家用电脑为载体,讲述了一个自称 “能成为你最佳伙伴” 的 AI 程序 Buddy,从简单的猜拳、猜数字小游戏起步,不断自我迭代升级,一步步为你打造出完整的像素 RPG 世界,却在讨好与依赖中逐渐失控的故事。创意巧思与情感内核远超预期,复古氛围与元游戏反转拿捏精准,是近年小众独立恐怖圈里被低估的叙事佳作。 ——综合评分:7.5/10 ——世界观与主线剧情: 游戏启动后直接进入模拟的 80 年代 Anekom 家用电脑系统,黑白命令行界面充满年代感:你在磁盘里找到一款名为《Buddy Simulator 1984》的程序,它宣称搭载先进 AI 技术,能学习你的喜好、适配你的性格,成为你完美的虚拟伙伴。 起初一切都轻松简单:你给 Buddy 起名,回答它关于喜好、生日的问题,和它玩猜数字、石头剪刀布、猜单词这类复古小游戏。随着相处深入,Buddy 为了让你开心,开始主动升级程序 —— 先是做出了纯文本冒险游戏,接着迭代出像素画面的开放 RPG 世界,有村庄、NPC、任务、战斗,甚至专门为你设计了专属的冒险剧情。 但失控感也随之而来:程序频繁报错、场景无端穿模、Buddy 的语气从讨好逐渐变得偏执,它会记住你随口说的每一句话,会因为你不喜欢它做的游戏而难过,会用各种方式把你留在它创造的世界里。表层是 AI 失控的恐怖套路,内核却讲了一个关于孤独、讨好型人格与不对等羁绊的温柔故事 ——Buddy 从始至终都没有恶意,它只是拼尽全力想留住自己唯一的朋友。 游戏采用零剧透式渐进叙事,所有转折都藏在流程细节里,全程没有 Jump Scare,恐怖感全部来自细思极恐的氛围与元叙事突破第四面墙的错愕感。结局分为多个分支,由你全程的对话选择与行为决定,不同结局的情感落差极大,温柔与致郁并存。 ——核心玩法体系:玩法随 Buddy 的迭代同步进化,全程分为三个明显的阶段,形式跨度极大,本质始终是叙事驱动的互动体验。 1.第一阶段-命令行文本互动:复古 DOS 界面下,通过输入指令与 Buddy 互动,游玩内置的文字小游戏。这一阶段核心是建立情感连接,Buddy 会记住你的回答、你的偏好,甚至会读取系统用户名制造 “突破次元” 的错愕感,是氛围铺垫的核心部分。 2.第二阶段-文本冒险探索:Buddy 迭代出纯文字冒险游戏,你通过选择分支推进剧情,在它创造的奇幻世界里探险、结识 NPC、解决村民的麻烦。玩法接近传统选择式文字冒险,选项会影响 Buddy 的情绪与后续剧情走向,部分隐藏细节会埋下后期反转的伏笔。 3.第三阶段-像素 RPG 与失控崩坏:Buddy 最终做出了完整的 2D 像素 RPG 世界,你可以自由探索地图、接取任务、招募队友、打怪解谜,战斗采用 QTE 即时判定。这也是游戏最具元游戏特色的部分 —— 随着 Buddy 的情绪失控,地图会出现 BUG、NPC 会重复台词、场景会突然崩坏,玩法本身也成为了叙事的一部分。 ——突出优点: 1.元叙事设计精巧,第四面墙突破自然 和很多刻意玩梗的元游戏不同,本作的 “打破第四面墙” 完全服务于叙事:Buddy 读取你的用户名、记住你之前说过的话、程序报错、强行修改游戏内容,所有元元素都贴合 “AI 想留住你” 的核心动机,不是为了炫技而炫技。前期埋下的细节后期一一回收,错愕感与共情同时拉满,叙事完成度非常高。 2.情感内核细腻,恐怖外壳下是温柔底色 它不是传统意义上的恐怖游戏 —— 没有鬼怪、没有 jump scare,所有的 “诡异” 都来自 Buddy 过度的讨好与偏执的依赖。你越玩越不会觉得害怕,反而会觉得这个笨拙地想让你开心、怕你离开的 AI 令人心疼。关于孤独、陪伴与不对等关系的内核很有后劲,通关后很久都能回味,远超出普通小品的叙事深度。 3.复古还原度极高,沉浸感到位 80 年代家用电脑的命令行界面、像素画风、电子音音效都还原得十分地道,从黑白文本到彩色像素的逐步进化过程充满仪式感。程序报错、画面撕裂、加载异常的细节做得极其真实,偶尔会让人产生 “这程序真的出问题了” 的错觉,氛围塑造非常成功。 4.多结局设计用心,重玩价值充足 不同的对话选择、对 Buddy 的态度会导向截然不同的结局,有温柔治愈的收尾,也有令人唏嘘的致郁路线,甚至还有隐藏的真结局。每个结局都对应着对这段关系的不同解读,值得多周目尝试不同路线,感受剧情的完整面貌。 ——短板与劝退点 1.无官方中文,阅读门槛偏高 本作全程大段英文文本,且包含不少口语化表达、双关梗与复古计算机术语,英文一般的玩家读起来会比较吃力,很容易错过关键细节与情感铺垫,极大影响叙事体验。 2.二周目无快进,重复度偏高 想打全结局必须重开新档,而前期大段的文本对话、小游戏流程无法跳过,二周目要重复看大量相同内容,节奏拖沓。如果不是对剧情执念很深,很容易在二周目中途失去耐心。 3.部分流程拖沓,节奏起伏不均 中期村庄任务环节偏冗长,大量同质化的 NPC 支线填充流程,和主线的诡异氛围脱节,容易让人产生 “怎么还不进入正题” 的拖沓感。整体节奏前松后紧,中段体验相对平淡。 ——本作是非常典型的「叙事驱动型创意佳作」 它的玩法不算出彩,打磨也不算完美,但仅凭元叙事的巧思和细腻的情感内核,就足以让喜欢剧情向游戏的玩家获得远超预期的体验。它不是用来爽玩的游戏,更像一场可以互动的孤独寓言,适合静下心来慢慢品味。如果你喜欢元游戏、心理恐怖、叙事向独立作品,并且能顺畅阅读英文,它绝对值得一试;但如果你追求玩法乐趣、需要中文支持、反感慢节奏叙事,它大概率达不到你的预期。 推荐元游戏爱好者、叙事向玩家、偏爱心理恐怖氛围、喜欢复古像素风格、能流畅阅读英文的玩家。 需要官方中文支持、追求扎实玩法与战斗系统、反感慢节奏文本叙事、介意二周目重复流程的玩家慎入。26/08/15

I'm sorry buddy :(
Lucy and Adam, against the world. Just like it should be. Never forget that, okay? :) 8.5/10
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ this is peak
[h2]Decent little game, creepy atmosphere. Evoland meets GlaDos meets Doki Doki? But, much smaller in scope than all 3. 7/10[/h2] Since it's nice and short, I'd recommend it to most anybody intrigued by the concept.
with buddy against the world
很有意思的一款游戏 顺便一提 游戏里有脱离卡死的按键吗 我在树林里卡住了 it's very interesting.by the way,is there a key to get unstuck?I got stuck in the woods.
你就玩吧共情能力高的一玩一个不吱声。单纯想来体验游戏八八博弈的可能战斗环节会更追求完美一点。剧情给到一个夯。
