Directly from Finland, the independent Studio Ludosity interactive makes us discover a very ingenious game of Assembly and physics. bobcameinpieces-1. jpgBob, this alien from another world, has inadvertently crashed on a strange planet. During the accident, he lost many parts of his ship. He'll have to hurry and get them back so they won't be late for work! These are the beginnings of Bob came in pieces, a game that mixes puzzles and adventures that will stimulate your brain. It's through some 14 levels, that you will have to help Bob find the lost pieces, hidden in places at first sight unattainable. The originality of the game comes from Bob's ship, which can be modified at will, with the pieces recovered. Depending on the obstacles that drive the road to our intrepid alien, you will have to find a way to adapt the space vehicle. A gust of wind to keep you from moving forward? So move all your engines in order to get a power that will rival the force of the wind. The idea of what to charm! Being able to mold to solve puzzles is very fun. However, in practice, some irritants come to break the rhythm of the game. First, you will have to return to the last active backup point to change the ship. Although they are generally well located, being forced to regress brings a break not always desired. Then, once you've made it to this point, you'll need to use a more or less ergonomic interface, where you can manage the changes. Since some puzzles are more complex than others, many tests may be necessary. bobcameinpieces-2. jpgLe game uses a physics system that is very successful. The displacement of the ship, propelled by engines, is very fluid, but given the smallness of the places where one can sail, it proves more difficult to enjoy it fully. However, the reactions to the environment are realistic and, in General, very pleasant. For example, rushing through the walls of ice has the effect of popping them into several pieces. The puzzles are also largely based on physics. Some are also very ingenious. On the other hand, like all games of this genre, there are sometimes risky events, which can become unfortunate in the long run. It will also be necessary to consider several parameters more or less precise, such as the weight of the added parts, the force of the motors, etc. Bob came in pieces offers levels that are wonderfully well-chained, providing each time with new game elements and avoiding redundancy. The independent games are getting more and more to carve out a respected place in the videogame world, thanks, among other things to quality games. Bob came in pieces is part of this list of games deserving of the detour and which, despite some flaws, offers good entertainment.
