Demetrios - The BIG Cynical Adventure reviews and comments
Ok I'll recommend this because it has many criteria that make it an ideal adventure game: hidden cookies in every scene, achievements, mini-games, alternate endings to collect, and point accumulation with game progress that unlocks content. The songs are kinda catchy too.
HOWEVER, the racism in this game is right in your face and it takes away from the experience.

I was a bit skeptical that the Humor would appeal to me that way. It can't be black and not cynical enough, it likes to be ambiguous, but I only find faecal Humour funny in Moderation. I find the "Humour levels" really awesome! Out of Concern, the Faecal Humor is too much to me, I mainly only played it on medium, even if I certainly missed a lot of funny other Jokes. Found it funny enough anyway, the Game gave me a lot of Laughs!
I would be interested in the Differences, but I don't want to do a whole game run again. If I wanted the more "crass" Humour, I would have chosen it directly. I don't Fuse as a Goodie/Extra for the Points at all, because yes, I would still be a Lot of Space!
But ACTION: If someone is just as boring as me and only plays on medium or not at all: For some Achievements you should choose the fiercest Degree of Humour, because there are some Choices only there (one of them I found uuultra funny and even understand Not so much why this is not also in the Middle, that was not a Faecal Humor)! And in some Places you should rather switch to English for a moment.
If you can enter a Message, nice or mean, you are allowed to enter something free, some things are also needed for an Achievement. In German, however, he does not really accept all The Insults, which works out a lot better in English ... Possibly put the second Pass for 100%-which goes really fix-completely in English, you actually skip the Conversations anyway and the English is really easy to understand-that's what I say, and I play, read and look best in my Native language.
As I said, I found it really funny, the Level of difficulty I found rather simple, which I personally find but positive, since too serious Puzzles usually frustrate me. When you feel about every third Puzzle, what do I know how long and in the end you don't know any other Than to look in the Complete Solution, that takes away a lot of Fun, especially since I personally take the Point and Clicks especially for the Stories and /or appreciate the Humour so much and the Puzzles are rather beside the point for myself.
The Playing Time for one Run Was about 8-9 class invested hours for me. The Flow of The game was great. I Would also like to highlight the Soundtrack separately, I thought it was really great. The 100% are sure to cope with Guide in one Pass (although, with one I don't know for sure), a second Run but is feasible in 2-3 Hours thanks to the Possibility to skip the Conversations completely. Unfortunately I welded n few Things and missed, not cached often enough and then had to repeat a lot again, I could have saved on the 3h Game time, so I leave myself complete at 11/12 Hours.
The Collectibles are first Cream. Some are a lot of Fun, others are sometimes quite hard to find and yet offer another Challenge. The Minigames are great, too.
All in all, I'm actually a bit surprised, because I was just thrilled with the Game. For me a terrific little Pearl and I really like to recommend it further!
