Small Town Terrors: Galdor's Bluff Collector's Edition reviews

Translated by

Once upon a time, two rival magicians formed by the same mentor: Addington and Thurman. The latter invites you as a detective to his new show to ensure that no one sabotage his numbers. His fears are quickly founded when there is a terrible accident that will fully justify your presence to conduct the investigation. We have a good set of hidden objects in the world of magic. To play naturally in the highest level of difficulty and to pass the clues. At some SOC, we sometimes have to assemble objects of the same kind rather than collect them. A bonus chapter offers us a preview of the main story in which we can alternately embody Addington and Thurman.

I really liked ST: GB for its storyline. It is simple, coherent and plausible; at 90%, it's not looking for extravagance. Quite what I was looking for. I found the characters plausible and interesting. For the rest, it's classic: SOC, but not too much and mini-puzzles, just what it takes. The Visual is in the Middle, too flashy, not realistic enough for me. The music is very much ruined. I did not play the bonus episode at the time I write these lines but the idea of departure seduced me. The bonuses are rather classic with a small originality: Solitaire (card game) included: http://agitato.free.fr/smalltown.jpg small flat: the SOC and mini-puzzles are childish, which removes a little pleasure. If you are looking for difficulty, it is not on this title. A good title. Oh, I forgot: the translation is exemplary, I have not even noticed any error of designation in SOC. Same for the rest of the text.

Main adventure of about 2H: two young magicians want to pierce the secret of their common mentor to become the most powerful. From this there is a rivalry that consumes the two young people to the point of sabcecting each other. Adventure bonus of about 1H: Prequelle of the main adventure; you play as Thurman & Addigton in turn benefiting from their different powers. They are students and on the verge of taking up the ultimate challenge to get into the service of their mentor and teacher (the sneing statue in passing). Ambiance: a charming Alliance of magic, mysteries and castles SOC 1: find the different elements quoted: clear and accessible scenes SOC 2: find elements and store them in their places: easy level puzzles: relatively simple collection: shapely orbs visibly visible in each of the scenes are to collect steam achievements: none but present ingame in the bonus bug shells: some rare translation errors but nothing nasty seduced by the atmosphere from the first minutes, I let the game unfold and take me in his narrative. There are very few difficulties, especially as objects and interactions are relatively obvious. It is well enough/nicely brought so that it is not heavy and does not ask for comings and goings without tail or head or reason. Although a little simple overall and quickly finished, I recommend it on promotion.
