Одна из лучших частей данной серии игр. Большое количество интересных решений в плане подачи сюжета, которых я раньше не видела в других играх Rusty Lake. Смотрится как фильм, пройти можно полностью без подсказок. Стиль рисовки чуть изменился, стал приятнее глазу. Музыкальное сопровождение, фоны, картины - все это просто превосходно. По атмосфере и дизайну игра мне лично очень напомнила Hotel Rusty Lake, если не ошибаюсь названием. Сам сюжет раскрывает важные кусочки, делая историю всех игр более цельной. Считаю, что игра точно стоит своих денег. Я получила огромное удовольствие!

Another absolute gem by Rusty Lake. I have been following these guys for years and I think this one is definitely in my top 2 favorite of their games (Paradox will always have a special place in my heart). Beautiful, hand drawn artwork, unique and fun puzzles, and a great and captivating story make this another memorable entry. Thank you guys for all the hard work you put into your games, can't wait to see what comes next!!
这次剧情真的很好笑啊,冷幽默十足,Vanderboom家实在是热闹。哈维太苦命鸟了
+【画面表现达到系列最佳】 场景细节、贴图清晰度、粒子与各类特效都经过了细致打磨,整体风格也更加统一。相比系列早期作品,这次终于形成了一个完整、细腻且足够可信的锈湖世界。 +【人物演出有了明显突破】 面部特写、眼神变化、镜头移动与人物动画明显增多,表情真正承担起了情绪和人物关系的表达。它不再只是静态画面之间的切换,而是有了自然的动态感和电影化演绎。 +【仆从视角与三日递进构成新的章节形式】 本作以临时仆从的身份串联起三日生活。随着时间不断向前推进,事件也从日常工作逐步升级为诡异、失控与最终反转,仆从视角和三日结构彼此配合,形成了这一作独有的叙事骨架。仆从身份的妙处在于,玩家既是初入这个家庭的外人,又能借工作合理进入每位成员最私密的生活空间。角色下达命令时的语气、态度和任务内容,也会自然暴露他们的身份、性格与彼此关系,让玩家在完成工作的过程中快速了解这些角色、进入剧情,并建立起更强的代入感与沉浸感。 +【剧情与解谜节奏达到系列最佳】 简短演出、轻量谜题、重点解谜与惊悚桥段始终在交替出现,既不会连续灌输剧情,也不会让玩家长时间困在同一种玩法里。它很清楚什么时候该放缓,什么时候该增加思考量,又该在什么时候重新拉高情绪。 +【旧谜题类型仍能做出新意】 本作保留了一些系列常见的观察、顺序与机关谜题,但没有直接照搬,而是重新设计了包装、交互与情境。熟悉的规则依然能带来新鲜感,新谜题的加入也让整体形式更加丰富。 +【荒诞形式之下有清晰完整的剧情】 本作延续了锈湖一贯的诡异与荒诞,但人物行为、关系变化和关键事件都有明确的因果支撑。角色可以疯狂,表现也可以天马行空,却不会再用朦胧代替剧情,整体甚至比《根源》更加具体清晰。 +【填坑之外写出了人物弧光】 它不仅补全了系列旧有设定,也让人物在三日经历中产生了真实变化。阴郁故事中仍保留着人性的选择与情感,使角色不再只是世界观里的符号,也让结局多了一层情绪重量。 +【任务板与电子笔记让进程始终清楚】 任务板把每天的工作、当前目标和整体进程列得清清楚楚,电子笔记本又负责保存线索与记录,玩家几乎不会因为迷路或无效翻找浪费时间。这套设计既契合仆从的身份,也让每一天的节奏和目标始终清晰。 +【流程虽略长,但完全能够接受】 本作流程对我来说确实稍长,但成熟的节奏控制、持续递进的三日结构,以及剧情、解谜与演出之间自然流畅的衔接,让整个过程始终保持新鲜感。它没有带来明显的疲乏或审美重复,因此这样的长度我完全能够接受。 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -【挑战性略显不足】 谜题整体偏入门,与系列其他作品相比,真正需要反复推敲的内容不多;这不影响流程的顺畅,却限制了挑战上限。五点、八点和十点的时间回溯是少数指引稍显含混的段落,容易让人误以为需要跨时段带回物品,实际解法却远比设想简单。 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ·【关于评分】 本作的谜题挑战性,以及故事的深度与《根源》那种庞杂、震撼的感觉,确实还差了一点。但除此之外,画面、结构、人物演出、剧情节奏、引导和整体沉浸感,都是毫无疑问的系列最佳。 【综合评分:82.5】
Primeiro jogo da Rusty Lake que eu acompanho os trailers até o lançamento. Além de contar mais sobre a história dos Vanderboom mais velhos que conhecemos (Aldous e William), ele se expande sobre a terceira irmã, chamada Alexandra Vanderboom, mãe de James Vanderboom, o primeiro personagem da família que vemos em Rusty Lake: Roots. Porém, apesar de responder quem era a raiz real dos Vanderboom, o jogo deixa mais dúvidas sobre a família como um todo, mais especificamente sobre os pais dos três irmãos e sobre o conhecimento que eles tinham sobre o lago (não irei me estender mais para não dar spoilers). Parece que o tom do jogo é diferente comparado a outros jogos da franquia, sendo ele mais "pé no chão", apesar das interações com o cenário ainda serem bem esquisitas (não é uma crítica negativa, esses aspectos meio "surrealistas" me fizeram ficar apaixonado por esse jogo). É bom ter um conhecimento prévio da franquia antes de jogar esse jogo para então você se chocar com a "gRaNdE rEvElAçÃo" do final, mas isso já é esperado de quem for comprá-lo. Definitivamente não é meu jogo favorito da franquia, mas mesmo assim o jogo é bem gostoso e gratificante de jogar.
A true piece of art, visually beautiful, lore just keeps improving, loved the voice acting, it's been awesome to listen to William since we've seen him dead everytime lol
Как и всегда - шикарно
mucha intriga, misterio, suspenso. El mejor juego que he jugado por todo su lore
Another banger fom Rusty Lake, I really liked the new mechanics, and as always the signature atmosphere of these games. I think it might become my favorite one now !
