    39 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story of "Sarab: Duji Tower" is described as simple yet engaging, featuring a traditional hero's journey with a rich narrative that could potentially translate well into a novella. While some reviewers noted its naivety and common tropes, they appreciated the depth and detail, with many expressing curiosity about the unfolding plot and character relationships. Overall, the storytelling is considered a strong aspect of the game, though some suggested improvements in presentation and proofreading to enhance its impact.

    • “Such a great game and journey with a long, complicated story. It took about 9 hours for me to finish it. I am curious about who took the box, and I get mad about the fact that Sarab didn't meet his twin brother. I don't know how many chapters it will take to finish the whole story.”
    • “The story is set up and executed in such a way that if one were to expand on it, it could become an actual book or light novel.”
    • “The story is enjoyable, and I see you have made a great effort with the design.”
    • “But if not, that completely sucks away any seriousness in both the story and events that transpire.”
    • “For a game that relies on having a strong story which conveys meaning, having a grammar mistake can really shatter what could perhaps have been a perfect scene/story.”
    • “I think that the game would benefit from having somebody proofread throughout and give feedback to the developer on what needs to be changed in order for the story to come across correctly.”
  • music
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's music aspect is polarizing; some players appreciate the absence of music, feeling it enhances the atmospheric experience and suits the exploration and puzzle-solving focus. However, others argue that more music would enrich the gameplay, with some noting that the existing sound design is effective in creating a chill ambiance. Overall, while the lack of music is intentional and fits the game's design, opinions vary on whether it detracts from or complements the experience.

    • “The music is amazing; it just fits in with the area you're going to. It's really chill and something you can enjoy.”
    • “For this game, which relies on world exploration and puzzles as its main driver, music would actually seem out of place.”
    • “This game is absent of music, relying only on the atmosphere.”
    • “The game doesn't contain any music whatsoever.”
    • “In a way, the game almost feels like an extended cutscene instead of a game without the presence of music.”
  • graphics
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game are praised for their originality and quality, with many reviewers highlighting the beautifully crafted environments and well-executed cutscenes. The artwork, created by a single developer, stands out in the RPG Maker genre, showcasing a significant effort to provide a unique visual experience that enhances gameplay and immersion. Overall, the visuals contribute positively to the game's ambiance and puzzle-solving experience.

    • “Graphic: 9/10 - The game's environment is absolutely wonderful and beautifully done.”
    • “The artwork in this game is amazing, and all done by the single developer.”

    • “The graphics are decent and the cutscenes seem to be well done.”
  • gameplay
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is straightforward and adheres to traditional RPG mechanics, making it accessible without unnecessary complexity. While the story is well-crafted and could stand alone as a novella, it may not fully enhance the gameplay experience.

    • “+ At first, gameplay was good.”
    • “It is a traditional 'common man has to save the world' story, but the writer put a lot of effort into the story... and by that I mean this might work well as a novella outside of the gameplay aspects.”
    • “Made with RPG Maker, it has all the standard features of its genre; the gameplay is simple and straightforward, and doesn't weigh you down with a lot of unwarranted complexity.”
  • grinding
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players note that while grinding can be necessary for boss battles, it doesn't significantly enhance the heroes' abilities. The game's linear progression features frequent random encounters, but these are generally quick and not overly tedious, making the grinding experience manageable.

    • “Grinding the heroes doesn't really make them better.”
    • “The battles are easily won, with the exception of the boss battles, which may require a bit of grinding before you attempt them.”
    • “The game is mostly linear, and your progress through the world is met with many random encounters, but it can feel tedious at times.”
  • humor
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is characterized by a playful and self-aware tone, often drawing on nostalgic and edgy references that resonate with a younger audience. Users appreciate the cleverness of the writing, which includes relatable and amusing observations that enhance the overall experience.

    • “And while we're on the goblet of death, that alone sounds a lot like a name he came up with when he was fourteen in his edgy phase and never changed it—the hilarious thing about this is these are not my words but my sister's.”
  • atmosphere
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game creates a unique atmosphere by forgoing music entirely, instead relying on environmental sounds and visuals to immerse players in its world.

    • “This game is devoid of music, relying solely on its immersive atmosphere.”
    • “The atmosphere is incredibly rich, drawing you into its world without the need for a soundtrack.”
    • “The absence of music enhances the atmosphere, making every sound and silence feel significant.”
