Desktop Explorer

玩法还怪新颖的

absolutely loved this game. the amount of work that went into it is so evident. the puzzles are the right amount of difficult and get so much more involved than i anticipated even after playing the demo. if you enjoy desktop simulators, adventure games, puzzles, early internet nostalgia, and being emotionally assaulted i HIGHLY recommend desktop explorer. i'll be thinking about this game for a long time

An excellent puzzle game - if you enjoy Daniel Mullins Games, this will be right up your alley. The puzzle design for the most part is well-telegraphed but there are a couple that require a non-obvious leap of intuition (looking at you minesweeper); It's fairly linear which is both good (there's an active culling of the solution space, so only so many things to try) and bad (much of the playtime is just getting stuck on the one or two puzzles). Visual and sound design is great, though I will say the writing and horror elements didn't really land for me; it is a game that is trying to do a lot in a ludo-narrative sense, and some of it is clever, but it fails to establish who the player character is early and vividly enough that it's hard to care about any of the character stakes (and less so some of the later introduced characters). This weakens the intended emotional impact at the end of the game, which is otherwise a perfectly reasonable resolution to the plot/gameplay arc. The point of solving the puzzles becomes just solving the puzzles (which are fun) because it's kind of hard to buy why you (or the protagonist even, she sort of puts a lampshade on this) plays along other than idle curiosity? Regardless, folks should play this so this team of folks can continue to hone their craft, I'd be interested in checking out their next project!

Divertido para los fanáticos de acertijos... me gusto! felicidades!!!

Wonderful little puzzle game and quite nicely challenging!

Where can i purchase the bonzi buddy skin for Pizarro?

Desktop Explorer does a great job of blending a few different styles of gameplay to create a unique experience. All of the puzzles are challenging enough to make you stop and think but not so easy that they don't feel rewarding. Something about this one got me and I couldn't set the game down. The story is also pretty good, though it's not the main draw. Very cool ARG style game. Also the soundtrack. The soundtrack is just crazy good.

One of the most creative and fun puzzle/investigative games I have ever played. The puzzles are difficult enough that solving them feels like a great accomplishment because you truly have to put in effort and think outside of the box. Some puzzle games have the issue of being TOO out of the box where the solution is almost impossible without a guide. With Desktop Explorer, I rarely felt the need to reference a guide at all; however, there is a certain puzzle ([spoiler]when you are waiting for the screensaver to trigger[/spoiler]) that is not triggering properly, so I was forced to check a guide to confirm it was a bug. I loved the writing for this game, each character had compelling intertwined stories that encouraged you to play more to find out their fates. The one question I still have is [spoiler] why Desktop Explorer is evil in the first place, I feel like I missed something because I only remember the dad programming it but it seems like there is way more that wasn't discussed.[/spoiler] If you have played Hypnospace Outlaw, this has a very similar feel except you are exploring the contents of a PC rather than exploring the internet. The design/concept of some of the applications/games were so pleasing I wish they were real, like Chronolog and NextRooms.
