beyond addictive game, it's so fun to play for hours on end - never bored

Just like all two point games this one is another simulation masterpiece in an oasis of bad simulators. This has tight graphics, tight controls, and a tight gaming loop. It's really good game design that keeps you locked in waiting for the next turn. It's addicting, charming, and it has that two point stylized animation I've gotten used to with their type of games. It's a cool game, totally wroth the 20 bucks on sale if you're into Simulators, it's a can't miss title. My only problem with it is that it can move really fast like an RTS, so I'm finding myself constantly clicking through the menu and adjusting things quickly here and there with my ADHD brain. It's easy to get stuck in what I call "StarCraft" mode where this game gives me the freedom to do things very quickly if you choose to. Shouldn't be a problem for most people unless you come from a Competitive RTS..

Here we are again. This is the third game in the excellent Two Point series and it lives up to the expectations and fully deserves the "Overwhelmingly Positive" reviews it has. For those of you who played the previous games in the series, Museum is by far the most streamlined and combine some of the challenging gameplay from Hospital with the excellent quality of life updates from Campus. The gameplay loop is highly refined and I got distinct vibes of "one more turn" from the Civilization series (totally different I know) as I keep thinking one more action before I quit the game for the day and I stay for a couple more hours. The core gameplay is about sending out your staff on expeditions to find display pieces. When you place those in the museum it raises the attraction and more people come in. As you gain experience in a specific location you get access to hugher quality versions of the same piece which are inherently more attractive (i.e powerful). There are plenty of modifiers you can apply to these expeditions to give you better rewards, make them cheaper or negate some of the risks your staff might face. There is a huge amount of content there even without the DLCs which are individually quite considerable and add to your playtime. There is no right way to manage your museum, I see plenty of beautiful layouts being posted but my approach is to min-max and get the achievements, I have a well performing albeit ugly museum. It all depends on how you want to play and you can make either playstyle work for you. DLC is excellent and worth it. At the time of writing there is the Zooseum, Digiverse and Arty-Facts DLCs. I can recommend all of them as they individually provide a sufficiently different twist on the game and contain a large amount of content which will take you hours to go through. The items that you find on the DLC expeditions are excellent, some of them are overpowered in the late stages of the game and can trivialise certain aspects of the game but obtaining them is a challenge. Think infinite ammo in Resident Evil games after you beat them kind thing. Music and audio are excellent. Even after playing for so long and inevitably hearing the same lines said by the in-game tannoy, it is never grating. I had some laugh out moments from the silly things being said and throughout it remained light hearted and amusing. I think it says something that after almost 200 hours I was not bored to death with it! Art style and animation is top notch as expected. It doesnt take itself too seriously and I found it really nice to zoom in and explore the various pieces in detail. You might not notice when you are hovering over the museum but it is clear the art is a labour of love by the developers and it shows in the wide range of themes and creativity on offer. That said the game needs some additional quality of life improvements to streamline the experience. I found myself constantly going between screens because not all data is available on one (expedition and sticker screens). Another issue with the Zooseum DLC is not being able to see the sex of the caught animal when you unlock it rather than going to the lists again in addition to not seeing that animal's full preferences and stats when it is selected to be placed in an exhibition. Another thing is the inadequate item filtering system which if you are like me and have dozens of items remaining in your inventory becomes really unwieldy to manage and find what you need. On some CPUs you might notice framerates dipping as your museum gets larger, there is a built in cap of 400 visitors which you can turn off at the expense of framerates but I found it is worth doing so. TLDR; this is a fantastic game that you should not sleep on especially if you are a fan of the other games in the series. If you have never played the series then this is an excellent starting point because it streamlines and improves many of the issues of its predecessors. A very easy 10/10 for me despite minor QoL issues that I mentioned.

太好玩了~~~~~~~~
