Crowalt: Traces of the Lost Colony

Нудний поінт-енд-клік. Ще й пиво змусили водою бадяжити - нелюди!

1. It's short but very plodding and repetitive. 2. The puzzles aren't really engaging and it's FAR too easy to soft-lock out of the game entirely if you do not do things in the EXACT order or you forget to pick something up. Conversely, you do not get to pick up everything right away -- which means more slow as butt walking between areas just to get stuff. 3. No real tension, no real mystery and it just ends. No epilogue of any sorts. 4. The mish-mash of various Indigenous cultures into a single tribe (especially with some of those cultures not even RESIDING at that particular time in that particular area) is grating. Don't buy.

So bad. Guess the correct answer; otherwise, restart. A trial and error fest with minimal return. The animations are the best part; the world is built properly, and the story is interesting. The shading is very nice. The gameplay and 'puzzles' result in "guess!" A waste of time fully, probably a solid story otherwise, but it became nonsensical. "Do the right thing simulator, but also there are wrong options available." Point and Click -1

A snoozefest tbh. Though i did like the ending twist. Pros: Decent historical flavor with a fantasy spin on Roanoke. Plus, it’s free and over in 3 hours. Cons: Mind-numbing amount of backtracking. An endless loop of fetching things, giving things to someone, being sent to someone else to fetch more things, and so on & so forth. A tedious cycle that drains all the fun out of the premise. Thankfully, I was put out of my misery shortly.

a walking and backtracking simulator.

Game Complexity: A puzzle / escape room like story rich adventure game with point and click gameplay. Game Difficulty: Since it has puzzle / escape room elements you need to figure out where and how to use the items you collect and to who you need to talk to continue the story. Achievements Complexity: You just need to follow the story. Achievements Difficulty: Same as game difficulty but there are 2 achievements on which if you make the wrong choice you will have to replay from the last save or the whole game, so use your save slots wisely.
