The story in "My Jigsaw Adventures - A Lost Story" is described as engaging yet simpler compared to its predecessor, featuring a loose plot that unfolds as players complete puzzles. While the artwork and music enhance the experience, some players found the narrative occasionally disjointed and less thrilling than expected. Overall, the game offers a pleasant journey with beautiful visuals and a light, intriguing storyline that motivates players to continue solving puzzles.
“Great pictures, fun story, and chill music.”
“The fantastic scenery and compelling story really incentivizes me to complete the puzzle and discover what's next!”
“Yes, this is a journey experience, beautifully illustrated by Jeremy Adams and synced with amazing music scores by Alec Shea, to completely immerse you as the story unfolds, little by little, puzzle by puzzle.”
“That said, the story in this game feels simpler than 'Roads of Life'.”
“I had trouble following the story to this one because some of it seemed detached from the art (what was up with the wolf?) and the plot felt sad as a whole.”
“Where the story in 'Roads of Life' is jumping sharks with dragons, swords, stumbling across the wildest unknowns, all in a quest to save the one you love, 'A Lost Story' is more general scenery.”
