Desktop Explorer

what a beautiful, tight little puzzle game. Its paced so well you can blow through the whole thing in just a couple of hours or you can take your time as there are clear points where you can stop playing and come back to it. Atmosphere was kind of unreal, able to pluck on your emotional heart strings and also be tense and also send chills up your spine. fantastic

12H通关了，卡过一两次，总体还好。 这是第一次通关的解密游戏，我之前也玩过一些解密游戏但都没有坚持下去。 我认为可以把解密类比为战斗游戏里的战斗场景，一款优秀的游戏（此处讨论不涵盖竞技类游戏）不仅仅需要战斗部分，也要有非战斗的部分来推动剧情。以此告诉你为何战斗，战斗的结果是什么样的。若全是战斗部分，则游戏变得十分令人疲惫，且不具有继续下去的动力。那么回到解密中，一款优秀的解密游戏也不能从头到尾都是解密，你需要有发现秘密之后的剧情推动，也要有发现秘密的动力。 【观点1】本游戏在总体剧情设计，和插入的时光笔记部分，很好的粘合了解密之间的疲惫，提供了足够的热情让人继续下去。 我认为解密不能一直很难，这就像动作游戏时不时要有简单的关卡；解密也不能脱离世界观或者剧情背景，比如我在玩一个洞穴里的探险，不能在墙上出现一个数字谜题必须解开才能打开石门。前者避免了挫败感，后者避免了损害代入感。 【观点2】本游戏在解密难度上错落有致，让人动力不至于丧失；而本游戏在谜题设计上很好的符合“桌面”的设定，让人沉浸其中十分愉悦。 综上所述本游戏完全值得推荐 : )

Very good. Tho...I have to say...This is kind of a game for grown up. The puzzles SOMETIME can be confusing,but by no mean as hard and esoteric as some others adventure games. Theres always kind of an obvious logic to it. The kind that,when you realise,your like: Omfg im so dumb. Thats so obvious. Plus...You always have your -friend- to help you with useful advice in times of needs. Game deserve its overwelmingly positive status. Love it. People whining on the forums have the reading skills of a pre-teenager.

7.5/10 充分灵活使用桌面系统的解谜游戏，谜题都很有巧思，且有的解谜方式会时不时反复使用，连续性也强。节奏不错，时长大概8小时。推荐！就是想了一会才明白叔叔好像是做了男小三（不是）。

I've been looking forward to this game since the first look I got of it many years ago at PAX, and I'm so happy to report it has not disappointed me even one little bit. A fantastic bit of deduction horror, with snippets of narrative in devastating ways. 10/10

Bueno bueno bueno, después de buscar juegos frescos y originales del estilo, me encuentro con Desktop Explorer. Siendo fan de los juegos de detectives point and click y como mucho escribir, me enganché a juegos como TypeHelp, The Rootrees Are Dead, Her Story y demás... Esto es lo más parecido que he encontrado pero ADEMÁS incluye nuevas mecánicas que no había encontrado en otros juegos de este tipo. Es original, visualmente placentero, contiene terror (leve, nada que no puedas jugar a oscuras solo en casa), pero es que además los desarrolladores son hispanohablantes, por lo que me relajó en cuanto a la traducción y jugabilidad en mi propio idioma, cosa que no es fácil de encontrar en pleno 2026. Pensé incluso en darle unas semanas por si tuvieran cosas a corregir o puzles a traducir mejor, pero no aguanté... Acertando en el proceso. Recomiendo meterse en esta historia sin mirar mucho, ni tráiler, ni vídeos ni mucho más, a ciegas. Si te quedas atascado ya hay guías, foros e incluso discord del juego, así que lánzate. (si alguien tiene + recomendaciones de juegos así, que me escriba gracias y adiós)

I enjoyed the first act, but they changed the whole game in the second act with the slog that is the NextRooms. I found myself stuck in certain places on the first floor with a bunch of details that do not help me. If there's details I'm missing, I'm just gonna chalk that up to not being able to make the Nextrooms screen larger. Meanwhile, PIzarro is useless by saying things like 'did you know you can erase things?' I had to wait so long to get the right fish colors to spawn on that screensaver, and it was just extremely unsatisfying to the point where I'm just taking a break from this. I cannot recommend a game that goes from a bunch of fun little ah hah moments with the puzzles in the beginning to an experience of waiting for the last two damn fish to show up. I dunno if I'm just unlucky, but that is some straight BS.

Such a good game with lots of depth, and uses the fear of the unknown very well. I would 100% recommend to someone who loves puzzle games.
