Here is a game bought for the pleasure of creating a pony!!!
What a great disappointment... the creative menu being quite limited, I was disappointed from the beginning of the game and my only planned love was falling into the water.
Then I still tested the game story to see (and because this purchase aroused a lot of reactions among my friends on steam and in my community ^ ^).
Pony World 3 Kezako?
It is a small game mixing Farmville with the Sims and containing other mini-games.
I explain, you have your farm or you build your Empire, fantastic Garden (Yes it sounds better) and or mixes the various plantations, fruit trees, your barn... all decorated with flowers/decorations/barrier...
You have the city where you can explore the various shops/places of interest such as the fireman, the grocery store, the cinema, the hospital...
The forest to meet, to gather mushrooms...
The beach or are the Minis-games and then other NPC...
And yet other places but that I have less explored and of which I have forgotten the name.
Side gameplay, it's simple, we move to the mouse, the camera also. There are a few special touches for the decorations color. We buy, sell at the shops, we go to work, we go home, we eat, we sleep we wash... In short a perfect little pony/Sims.
Graphically and sonoly what does it give?
So without being ugly, it's not pretty either xD let's say that there are some praphiques bugs (some visible on the screens I think) that pass, and side without being exceptional, it is small music of ambiance simple and sweet.
A small reproach to the camera that sometimes (in cities) is hard to want to zoom in on your character time to pass by. The animations are simple but they do their job, either the social tooltips or the movement of the ponies.
The bugs all the same yes because even if the game is sold as is (no EA or other) we can still hope 2/3 bug fixes. Here are the main bugs I found during my game session.
First of all the graphical bug that at some time of the day (at dusk) makes that a large part of the graphic background (the décor) is totallly white. It stings the eyes, but well it only lasts a few seconds/minutes (depending on your speed of play) and that in some scenery in the distance. Just it surprises the first time so I warn.
Let's follow the bug linked to a specific place. Indeed, as shown in my screens, the bug Park and suddenly you have all the overlay (menu, stats, build...) which is shifted quite violently. So I just have to restart the game at the time of the evaluation to find the name of this place;)
The last major bug, still graphic, come from learning a trade that displays a pop-up of congratulations that remains until you have reloaded the game.
I didn't have any gameplay bugs, nor any time or displacement bugs. Stores and their buying or trades system works properly.
Conclusion bought for the delirium of creating a pony, I let myself be attracted by the simple side of the game. That's right, this game is simple, but yet it allowed me to spend a few hours of "entertainment". It is worth the €5 (I believe pretty much) by its content and its potential lifespan.
After is this a game for you that you will love? Yes if: you like farmer, but farmer in the sense reap, ride, loot...
You like Farmville/the Sims type games.
You like small memory games, 3x (3 cross), maze and you already own all the games of the genre on steam.
