Isle of Reveries

已全成就。这是一款比较复杂难评的游戏，不过在类2d塞这个一堆无功无过的白开水游戏品类里，总体还是算优秀。 先说说优点： 1、原教旨主义的类2D塞尔达，要素也比较齐全，有着分布在地图四个位置的四大地牢，每个地牢都有着相对独特的机制；随进程逐渐获得的多种主动道具，有塞尔达系列本身常有的也有一些开创性的；心之碎片、npc对话式支线、收集叶片、身边跟随的类似navi的精灵等都无不透露着致敬。 2、地图设计，尤其是地牢里的解谜设计有不少的闪光点，这是同为类塞的大量白开水游戏很难见到的。 3、丰富的主动道具系统和收集要素，每种主动道具用途几乎各不重样且都兼具多用，既可以作锁钥设计也可用于战斗，有的还能进行升级；多种不重样的收集要素能给人较大的收集欲望和成就感，也撑起了不错的体量。 缺点： 1、虽然游戏目前没有中文，但其实有中文也只能解决一部分问题，因为游戏有着大量需要对电波的节点，充斥在主线解谜、支线任务、微小收集之中。有的主动道具和地图机制完全可以在初见时设计一小段关卡进行弱引导，但这游戏不会妥协，强制要求你对电波，对不上就得在多个已解锁的版面里穷举，有时运气不好甚至得一路回头或者全图乱跑来寻找下一个目标。其实游戏本身主线流程偏一本道，地牢顺序固定，且中途长段的跨地图区域流程都是固定一条路走到黑，但还是会经常有这样的问题。另外游戏内的精英怪和boss有还是有好几种的，每种都有相对好打的打法，但绝大部分同样没有任何引导（外观大概率也看不出来），你只能掏出现有的所有主动道具用你仅有的血量拼命穷举试错。所以如果你决定入手，最好做好随时看攻略的打算，有些地方就算是同类型游戏老手也会想破头都想不明白的，而如果恰巧是主线，那就一辈子卡这了。 2、游戏的摆烂性设计其实也不少。总得来说，由于游戏的体量还算大，而且过程中也一直有动力吸引，所以不会太明显，但你一旦暂时破防了或者打过一部分乃至通关之后回看，就会发现“这个地方到底为什么要放这一种机制道具，附近没有任何可互动的东西”“堆这些怪是干嘛用的”“这里有必要用一长串的室内转室外转室内来拉长流程吗”等问题。这些看上去其实也是类似白开水游戏的通病，这点上这游戏做得其实不算明显；此外还有一些细节上的东西也很摆烂，比如像荷叶之类的东西连贴图都懒得修，纯粹的背景色块摆在水里硬挡路，如果你碰巧把一些有背景色块的东西移动到不是正好放格子里的情况就更明显了，会发现这个东西连着背景一格色块都在“出城”，说到这这一点也是如此，很多东西的碰撞体积和和运动逻辑没有清晰的设计，经常会莫名其妙挤压或者杂乱排列，截止目前还有木筏能上岸之类的神秘bug，甚至导致我出现一次死档的情况，好在作者够勤奋在steam社区反馈后很快补救了，这点得好评；然后就是这游戏我个人感觉最大的摆烂设计点：游戏后期有一种关键主动道具，设计很有想法也很超模，原版塞都不敢做，但是这道具除了解决它应该解决的谜题外有点近似地图通解了，有了它感觉作者便不用考虑任何地图连通性设计，反正你总能绕两下找到一两个刁钻点位用这个道具穿越地图，非常地抛弃大脑+不严谨，同时这个道具也是后期才获得，所以也不怕你破序死档，感觉有一种作者和玩家一同放空大脑的美。 3、地图可读性和连通性问题。这一点其实有点综合上面两点，但我还是单独拿出来说。首先这游戏的地图是每一版一个方块，连通用开口表示的，完全不表达方块里的地形，这在主线流程大量一本道前进的过程没有问题，但一旦回头，尤其是中期没有上文提到的放空大脑道具时想去别的地图做一些收集等时，就会有大量跟着地图走发现根本通不过去、掺杂大量室内地下无地图的“连通用房间”的情况，可读性很差，加上很多地图版式就是绕半天只有一条通路，往返试错成本也高。哪怕是在同一个主线地牢内也是同样的连通性可读性差，导致经常找不到路然后为了前往一个版面而绕半天最后一边迷路一边忘了自己要干什么身上还有几把钥匙一边被小怪直接送回老家重跑，这段跑图往往会稀释掉你刚刚为某个谜题设计精妙的惊喜，导致最后打完你都不知道该夸还是该骂还是刚才我做了什么妈妈牛来。 4、战斗缺乏深度又故意刁难。除了主线机制boss外（机制本身设计还算有意思但也比较缺乏引导得拿命试错），大部分小怪你不需要知道什么机制，大部分精英怪你都得初见拿道具穷举试错，然后后面再次见到就是多次同场出现多个、狭窄地形等逼着掉血又难处理的情况。 其它还有些大大小小的优缺点，但很难一言以蔽之了，以往写的评价我一般会爱憎分明，但这个游戏打完之后我也不知道自己是否喜欢，是否推荐别人玩，大伙看完以上碎碎念自行判断自己是否适合吧。

Did you love the Legend of Zelda games on the Gameboy and Gameboy Color? You'll love this. A delightful and challenging love letter to action-adventure puzzlers. Pretty impressive. Polished. Lots of unexpected features and details. Very happy with how this turned out.

The dungeon design is truly genius, absolutely nails the Zelda puzzle dungeon style. The world is also filled with story, lore and different characters full of personality. Really great game.

I really like the fact that everything feels more like a puzzle than a typical homage to Zelda games. In most cases in the second dungeon, the sword is the least-useful way to beat a room full of enemies once you find the dungeon item, and I like that it gives me a good reason to un-equip the sword (unlike the old Oracle games on the GameBoy Color). It's also great that you always have access to jumping, so you don't have to worry about wasting an equipment slot in order to do so. Similarly, always having access to the ability to duplicate environment items for puzzle-solving really makes it easier to experiment and figure out a solution more quickly. The art direction and characters also seem interesting, and I'm intrigued by the implied quests linked to each new NPC that you find. The overall story also seems interesting, and your character has more of a reason to go on the adventure than "I'm a hero." It's also interesting seeing how each NPC reacts differently to learning what awaited them on their pilgrimage, as it is more realistic that not everyone would believe you depending on who they are and the circumstances you find them in. I do like the overworld being wide open and interlinked, as it plays into the puzzle aspect of things. About the only complaint related to it that I have, as of the time of review, is an issue with using my Steam overlay on this game, meaning I can't spam screenshots to compile a map like I normally would for puzzle games. As I'm both on Linux and using a Horipad controller with a built-in Steam Button, my attempts to figure that out is still on-going. Considering I've been putting off other puzzles games due to not wanting to compile physical notes, I may as well grow as a person and start doing so with this game so I can start tackling those games as well. All-in-all, I'm enjoying my time so far and look forward to seeing what comes next.

Disclaimer: I was a kickstarter backer for this game. I'm a big ban of Zelda games, and naturally was interested in this one. I'm one dungeon in, and so far the game feels very polished: [list] [*] The first dungeon is well-designed. Mazelike, not repetitive, and interesting. [*] Puzzle elements, including the ability to copy things you see, are put to good use. [*] There's several items, all of which feel interesting and useful. [*] The difficulty level feels on-par with Link's Awakening. Not too easy or too hard. Half the enemies WILL damage you if you're too hasty, and the other half are no-brainers. The game is generous with its health pickups. [*] The first boss felt unique and made use of multiple items you've found so far. [/list] Other pros: [list] [*] You can save+quit at any time, or save at certain statues, and there are autosaves. [*] You can equip any item to any of your 3 item slots. RB is for jumping and LB is for the copy-paste ability. [*] Hitboxes are forgiving. Damage taken never felt unfair. Even if you fall into deep water, you have a brief splashing animation during which you can step back out before dying. [*] You can rebind all actions for both controller and keyboard. [/list] Issues: [list] [*] I do wish the process of quitting the game and getting back into it didn't require waiting through so many menus. Save and return to the title, wait for the autosave warning again,then get to the menu and THEN you can quit. [*] I did not experience any bugs so far, except for one where the lava appeared completely monocolor in one room when I revisited an earlier area, but fortunately only one room was affected. [/list] If you're a fan of 2D Zelda games, especially Link's Awakening or the Oracle games, you will feel right at home with this one. All in all an impressive Zeldalike so far!

If any one enjoys old school action rpgs like Zelda especially Links Awakening then this game is a no brainer. It It well designed and has charm and will engage you with its world and puzzles. If you like 8 bit visuals and audio then you will be at home here as it mimics Gameboy Color. The game looks nice and has some good tunes. I have not had any major control issues. Some jumps may take a few tries. And some reviews mentioned how the overworld is claustrophpbic in its design. While playing you can see its more compact in design. It does not ruin the game,it just means the screen space was designed diffrently than Zelda and Mina. So in closing the game is an easy recommend for fans of the genre.

If you like Zelda, puzzle games, or just want a great experience this is a must buy. Every time I have to stop playing, I instantly want to be done with stupid adulting and play more. This is easily one of the best if not the best Zelda clone ever made!!!
