Skaramazuzu

Buen juego de aventura surrealista, de esos que te hacen pensar... En la trama, pero no en los puzles. Aunque se repite en los diálogos un poco. Un arte muy lindo y a veces perturbador. Juego no muy complicado y lo único difícil es estancarse. Más bien es un videojuego tranquilo para todos los públicos. Pero ojo con los niños, ya que sale un poquitín de sangre. Pero poco. Has de saber un mínimo de inglés y aunque se puede acabar sin problemas, hubiera agradecido que estuviera en español. Muchas gracias por el juego.

I was a bit disturbed at first when launching the game. It felt weird, getting thrown into the void and meeting the master, whom face we cant even see, before being dragged into this new world, being told only to activate the four Orbs. But as I wandered into this universe, i came across great characters, some i felt pity for, some that made me laugh, others that I felt and shared dreams with for a bit. The search for clues, the discs pieces, from the beginning to the end, I could feel that call for exploration, curiosity and need to help. And some of the characters did have that need too, even if it takes finding what they want to discover the fact that they made us do what was necessary for us to find ourselves. That's what Skaramazuzu is: a quest to find oneself. Helped by the Master, Nobody, Under, Over, Bird and Pyro, Walking along the Gardener, Dragon, Kid, Mister, Misses and Ghost, you will be brought into a quest about memories, true self search, facing fears and becoming You. As strange as this game looked to me before I started playing it, I really like uncovering the mysteries it had to over. Plan for a few hours run, around three, as the game is best played in one run. 10/10 would clearly recommend!

Skaramazuzu is short. I completed the game with most achievements in around two hours and would likely have done it more quickly if I’d payed closer attention to find some of the clues the game hides—sometimes in plain sight—for its puzzles. I’d recommend it if you’re looking for a short and not too frustrating adventure game to play in an afternoon. Full review: https://www.thegeeklygrind.com/archives/skaramazuzu-review

Received a key on Reddit without knowing anything about the game. Installed and played in one sitting. The game was a little obscure in the beginning, but the story and gameplay grew on me as i progressed through. Overall it was a fun game worth spending an afternoon seeing through, and my wife & son loved the sound effects for the voices, thinking it was all a bit odd but fun looking/sounding.

August 12th here in Thailand is Mother's Day, which will arrivesoon enough. Such befitting coincidence. You know, this game offers not much. Same old stuff: walking around, commuting between different maps, aiding NPCs for key items, etc. etc. Nothing so impressive. The in-game voices definitely got on my nerves. I considered muting it all, but again I just want to immerse in the experience as this game intended. Sooo... I bore with it. And after like a few quarters, you just got used to it. Again, this game is not one of my faves. But I must admit, soft animal as I am, I don't have the heart to rate it down. The story is... well... not that much of a... Hard to put into words, especially if you don't want to sound too harsh. There is something there, yes. And like one of the Guardians mentioned, "admirable." So, vote up, I guess. This is not an AAA game and the end credit lasts less than half a minute because the dev team is simply that small so I think it's fair enough. Not to mention it cost practically nothing when you bought it during sales.

Gameplay video/walkthrough: https://youtu.be/AfUVa1rIn1o This is a cute adventure game with a mix of some riddles(discussion puzzles I call them) and some almost non-linear travel. You are Skaramazuzu, and you're on a quest to figure out exactly what the heck is going on. And it's told pretty well through the discussions you have with others, and once you accomplish some specific actions. It's a game that kept me glued to my seat, yet made me want to get up and walk away in frustration several times. I suck at puzzles, and I suppose I suck at riddles. The riddles are really a mix of figuring out what the NPCs want - and therefore some of the things that make logical sense to you just don't work out. That frustrated me, but I get it from a game design perspective. The graphics are very visually unique, it looks great. Some really cool character design here. Really cool. The music/atmosphere is also great. I think the sounds used for voices though, well those are a bit less awesome. Overall the game will probably take about 1.5-3 hours on average. Probably somewhere around 2 I'd bet. It took me longer because I'm daft. But, I enjoyed it. It's a touching story about kindness.

Skaramazuzu is a small, slow-paced, arty, and aesthetic little game with a lovely story. It features wonderful art and music, creating a great atmosphere. It's like a walking sim meets visual novel meets simple point-and-click adventure game, with elements of ASMR. It's a lovely game to lay back, do a little reading (yes, there is a bit of reading), and just slowly take your time with.
