Clearly you never played Myst, and this type of puzzle game isn’t for you. I would have paid more than the asking price.Įdit: to the guy below who says the puzzles are too hard, well yes, they are hard in some places, but why would that make the game deserve 1 star? Also, I beat the game and got all collectibles with only having to refer to walkthrough once. There are so many puzzles (linear and non linear) which adds greatly to replay ability and length of play. But for now, you already know about the amazing graphics and gameplay as I mentioned, but also the solid sound design and beautiful score help add to the atmosphere.
THE EYES OF ARA STEAM KEY PRO
It looks gorgeous and plays flawlessly on my iPad Pro and itouch 6! That’s always a huge plus for me if a game like this is programmed so well to play great on itouch 6.Īs soon as I finish this amazing adventure I’ll leave a more in-depth review. I’m only halfway through and this game has me completely s***** into its atmosphere and gameplay. Such a great addition to iOS library star star star star starĭubs1's Review of The Eyes Of Ara Reviewed on 7/15/18 5:48 PM This game, while beautiful in many ways, has worn me down.

Not sure if I even want to try to finish. I could go on, but suffice it to say that the frustration level has surpassed the pleasure level. Personally, I don't really care about achievements and each time this happened it was disappointing. doing nothing to advance you in the game. I also agree with the reviewer who mentioned how there are numerous puzzles that require much work and end up only getting you an achievement. I got so tired of going all over the place trying to remember where something was. It's lovely that there are a lot of rooms but after a while it just became annoying. So if, like me, you're not someone with a photographic memory for where everything is, you can spend lots of time just trying to find rooms that you've been in and want to return to. there are lots of puzzles, superb attention to detail, and it's long.Ĭons: clues and puzzles are vague and everything is so spread out that the environment became a hindrance, and there's no map. Pros: it's a beautifully produced game with a good story and exquisite graphics in a nice 3D environment. Suzsho's Review of The Eyes Of Ara Reviewed on 7/22/18 2:55 PM Very mixed reviews on this game star star star star_border star_border If you want to play a ridiculously hard game - then this is for you, otherwise I cannot recommend it. bad idea, because you can’t finish the game it seems if you don’t get every single darn coin, photo, and warrior figurine! WIth all this back and forth and sometimes not even knowing if you did a puzzle correctly, because the effect of it is somewhere totally different - I finally gave up on finding all the little “extras” and just wanted to at least finish the game - ahhh. I do think that I am pretty decent at solving puzzles and enjoy it, but in this particular game I got extremely frustrated and then ended up playing it with the walkthrough and STILL having a hard time!!!
THE EYES OF ARA STEAM KEY SERIES
I really enjoy puzzle games like the room series for example and was so excited about this one. It has been a long time that I have been writing a review but feel compelled to do so this time.

Too hard! star star star_border star_border star_borderīiancard's Review of The Eyes Of Ara Reviewed on 8/28/19 2:04 PM This game would greatly benefit from a hint system since the storyline is actually compelling and interesting, but the often times confusing puzzles and mechanics of the game get in the way of that and ruin the experience. And last of all the mechanics are horrible, if you want a good compelling game worth five dollars buy the room.

Most annoying thing I find is that besides the main mechanics of the game there are collectibles which makes the game so much more hard and so much less rewarding, she works so hard but you still didn’t even complete the actual game in the end. sometimes the puzzles are the total opposite of what you think they are and it’s really frustrating when you spend so long on them and turns out you’ve been doing it totally wrong this whole time. Lush width's Review of The Eyes Of Ara Reviewed on 8/28/19 2:04 PMįirst of all there’s no hints system so if you get stuck you HAVE to cheat and look it up online, Second you keep getting stuck because the puzzles are not explained in the tutorial, in fact the tutorial does practically nothing to explain any part of the game. Horrible game, get better gameplay somewhere else star star_border star_border star_border star_border
