4th episode of the series lost lands released in 2017 by the Studio five-BN specializing in the games of casual adventure and hidden objects and to whom one owes in particular also the series New York mysteries. A 5th episode of lost lands was released in 2018.
Scenario so we find Susan for the fourth time as the heroine of this license.
On his way home, she discovers in her living room an antique chest sealed with magic. The lost lands need its help again because imminent danger threatens the world.
A cursed pirate, an infamous dictator, an anthropomorphic Beaver, a lot of witchcraft and damned souls will accompany the dynamic mother of family alias Susan the Warrior.
In a bonus chapter, we embody the anthropomorphic beaver to discover how he saved Susan's life through the Elogans in a short prewhat of the main adventure.
Gameplay more point & click casual than HOG, lost lands: the Wanderer has all the usual attributes of this kind of game: fully mouse game, inventory, notebook (compiling all the essential information), map (allowing quick moves), several collections of optional objects to complete (which will delight enthusiasts of success), system of help and clues and 3 levels of difficulty to choose.
The game is in English but subtitled in French.
I liked a lot of objects to find and understand how to use the solution of puzzles always retains a minimum of logic and coherence, even obvious because we always know what we lack in front of an obstacle or how we can use an crafts items t that we have just recovered the very few SOC mini-games few and diversified the card well useful because the round-trips are very many game realized with care I have not liked we have far too many clues, even without resorting to the system of help and in the highest level of difficulty, by looking at the notebook and especially because of Susan's comments about an object or a place the scenario is not very wanted shorter than the previous episodes: approx. 6h (obviously without resorting to a IDEs, indices or solutions) conclusion FIVE-BN confirms that these games are a very good alternative to the artifex Mundi productions by offering more of the point & click of casual adventure than the pure hidden object game and retaining the concern of a realization above the average relative to the titles of the genre.
Regrettably, the lack of real difficulty and the inconsistent scenario can always be regretted, but these are almost the characteristics inherent to the genre in the interests of accessibility and the target audience.
A title that will appeal to lovers of casual games who are reluctant to confront more demanding games and who simply want to live a short adventure without too much head.
To advise against players who are looking for a memorable experience, a searched storyline and subtle and profound characters.
I advise to buy the game in sale from-50% or acquire the bundle containing all episodes of the series.
