The Forgotten City

i almost quit within the first couple of hours, which are pretty messy, but exploring the world and piecing together the mystery kept me hooked and satisfied. Some of the dialogue isn't very good, especially the philosophical conversations, but overall the writing was competent, and I enjoyed the exploration of the other themes.

《outer wilds》的低配代餐，值得一玩

An amazing game that is a once in a lifetime experience. Bravo!

루프를 이용한 추리물일줄 알았는데 루프 섞인 비주얼노벨에 가까운느낌의 게임 그래도 루프물 특유의 반복적인 작업을 스킵 가능하게 잘 만들어준 덕분에 그런 부분에서 답답함은 없었음. 생각보다 신화나 철학과 관련된 주제가 중요하게 나와 흥미로운 게임이였음.

A solid narrative/mystery/adventure game. I reached endings 1,2 and 4/4. I like the main mechanics of the time-loop, I feel like it's well integrated in the gameplay and, for the most part, doesn't feel overly complicated or arbitrary. The graphics are pretty good, with the usual facial expression rigging being a bit stiff, but that's really hard to do and for the scope of the game, I'm quite impressed with how it looks. Since I don't want to spoil the story, I'll simply say that I appreciated a new-ish twist on a classic tale. Many of the story elements were not new, but the presentation and the narration (in part due to it being an interactive medium) made it quite compelling. It's kind of cliché, but time-loop based stories tend to work quite well in an interactive format. Overall, despite some slight jank in the few platforming moments and some skill issues on my end (namely not picking up a story-critical item because I thought I already picked it up and running around in circles frustrated at this situation), it's a solid choice that can keep you entertained for a very reasonnable amount of hours. Count 6~12h depending on how quickly you figure things out and how much you want to explore all endings.

QUICK AND SPOILER FREE: The game Is great! It's a great experience that you aren't getting in many other games. Story: tho it can fall flat if you're expecting the characters to have strong senses of what a moral action is. Worldbuilding: It's the best part of the game imo. Since it's pretty much a linear experience, they've tried to give you great set pieces to experience, and they succeeded. Writing: All the characters are really interesting. I had a lot of fun talking to them and figuring out which dialogue trees would get me what answers. though like I said before, the sense of morality of the characters is at best a bit disappointing. Gameplay: It's very basic, but they've mastered their basics. I never really got boring of walking form place to place, and each location of the world offered an experience that kept me hooked, and wanting to uncover what was happening

本作通过构想一个历史上不同时代、未来甚至更高级别文明的种群，对道德和法律对人的约束作用进行了探讨，可惜游戏体量并不大，深度还是比较浅。游戏性有些欠缺，是普通解密水平。
