Was really excited to play this since it was based in Iceland, however there was a bit too much dialogue for my taste. Seemed I was going back and forth and having to talk with people over and over again. Guess I'm just the type who's more interested in solving puzzles than the social atmosphere of a game.
Like Machinarium, which is also uniquely different than any game I had played before, this one scores in originality in terms of game play and figuring things out as you go along. Thoroughly enjoyed it. You have to solve a mini-game in order to receive hints, which I thought was pretty creative, even if I didn't enjoy the mini-game. The only disappointment was that it wasn't longer.
The beautiful scenery and music create an enjoyable ambiance while playing the game. The "puzzles" are fairly simple but entertaining and fun. The story was well done.
I found myself laughing out loud many times during this game. Simple in terms of going around and finding things characters need, but hilarious and entertaining the entire time!
If you enjoy hidden object games but prefer more puzzles, this one's for you! It has a ton of puzzles, especially at the end. Fun and entertaining all around!
I found this one available for MAC after playing it years ago on a PC. I was disappointed that not all of the elements worked. Seems my computer struggles with many Anuman brand games. However, I remember that it was enjoyable when I played it before. Hoping there might be some fix that I can upload in the near future so I can finally play it again.
I had a lot of fun with this game due to how surprisingly different it was from any game I had played before. (Have since played The Tiny Bang Story, which was similar.) Some things took a bit of time to figure out, but they made sense rather than being a random way of solving something. Have to think outside the box a bit. Very enjoyable!
