gameplay3 negative mentions
  • The game captures the atmosphere and story appealing to fans of The Case of the Golden Idol and Obra Dinn.
  • The gameplay mechanic is solid and provides a fun investigative experience for some players.
  • The game features some neatly done puzzles that help break up the word placement mechanics.
  • Extensive use of AI-generated art leads to inconsistent character appearances, which harms the investigative gameplay.
  • The writing and story feel uninspired, generic, and heavily AI-generated, lacking charm, nuance, or emotional impact.
  • Gameplay becomes tedious over time due to repetitive word-dragging mechanics, excessive characters, and overwhelming information.

  • story

    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    27% positive mentions, 46% neutral mentions, 27% negative mentions

    The story is generally seen as unoriginal and heavily derivative of "The Case of the Golden Idol," lacking its intrigue and depth. While the initial mystery and multiple perspectives capture interest early on, the narrative loses momentum and could have benefited from simplification. Overall, the story is considered adequate but uninspired.

    • “Loving the atmosphere and story.”
    • “The story is also interesting with the initial mystery and the different perspectives, but it loses its ability to really keep that attention as it goes on.”
    • “I think the story could've been simplified into a murder/occult mystery on a single ship, since the first 2-3 chapters are the strongest in capturing that mood.”
    • “The story early on is too similar to Golden Idol, yet lacks Idol's sense of intrigue because they immediately show you the idol in chapter 1, and that it can perform magic in chapter 2.”
    • “This game is the Case of the Golden Idol - the exact story, the characters, the pacing, the plot, put through an AI slop filter.”
    • “Taking inspiration from a game is fine, but when you have the same gameplay, similar style, the exact same story and simply slap AI art and music on top of it, it is just insulting.”

  • gameplay

    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    20% positive mentions, 50% neutral mentions, 30% negative mentions

    The gameplay is described as tedious and physically tiring due to repetitive click-drag mechanics, with occasional well-designed puzzles providing some relief. While the core mechanic is solid, it lacks originality and may feel derivative to players familiar with similar games. Improvements suggested include refining the mechanics, reducing excessive text, and enhancing the overall writing for a better experience.

    • “The only thing that breaks it up is the odd puzzle here or there which are neatly done but it can only do so much to make up for the core mechanic.”
    • “I don't feel I was cheated and if you wanted this kind of gameplay it's fine.”
    • “Ignoring the AI usage, the gameplay is very tedious.”
    • “Not to mention the game mechanic of click-dragging each and every word into place gets tiring.”
    • “If there's to be another game, I think the writing needs to see some improvement; the amount of words and extra information should be scaled down; and the mechanics re-done so that the act of putting the words in place isn't so tedious and painful to one's wrist.”

  • grinding

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The grinding aspect is considered tedious and repetitive, with gameplay mechanics causing frustration and wrist discomfort. Users suggest that simplifying the writing and redesigning the mechanics could alleviate this monotony.

    • “Ignoring the AI usage, the gameplay is very tedious.”
    • “If there's to be another game, I think the writing needs improvement; the amount of words and extra information should be scaled down, and the mechanics re-done so that the act of putting the words in place isn't so tedious and painful to one's wrist.”

  • music

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The music is criticized for being poorly matched to the game's setting and period, as well as being too short and repetitive, which detracts from extended reading and detailed examination. Additionally, it is seen as uninspired and overly derivative, failing to add meaningful originality.

    • “Also, the music is poorly matched for this kind of game/period, and is way too short and repetitive for chapters that demand a long period of reading and detailed examination.”
    • “Taking inspiration from a game is fine, but when you have the same gameplay, similar style, the exact same story and simply slap AI art and music on top of it, it is just insulting.”

  • atmosphere

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 100% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    Users appreciate the game's atmosphere, finding it immersive and well-crafted, which enhances their engagement with the story.
