Adam's Venture Chronicles review
Meh
by Jamesbuc

Theres a few ok things in here and some of the puzzles in the later chapters can be fun but good lord the lead characters are so frustratingly shitty and the overall feel of the game never quite rises above 'Meh'. Only worth trying on a deep discount.

It's not Nathan Drake, Lara Croft or Indiana Jones. This is a very mediocre quest. And the places are quite crooked. Recipe for a good puzzle-here's your goal, here's your tools. Do as you want, just to reach the goal. So it was in Portal, in Talos Principle and other famous puzzles. Here you just throw out some porridge, in which the main difficulty-to understand what is required in general here to achieve, what purpose. It takes The bulk of the time-to understand what this time conceived game designer, what is the mechanics and to achieve what you need to strive at all. This is how to solve a problem in which there is only a condition, and there is no question. In addition, the rules of the decision are set each time the Naobum. Regarding The plot-it is rather a cartoon for children aged 10-12 years. The Characters are blunt and flat, giving out shteechki at the level of elementary school. I did not like the fixed position of the camera, sometimes extremely uncomfortable and not clear for what it is done. About 20% of the puzzles I have only covered with brusthfords, because there was no logic to find them. The Play was very dull, and I was glad that the game was finally over. I don't want to go Back. And the urge to quit was regular. Maybe they should have. Would Rather not recommend.

Indiana Jones Low-cost This is the feeling that this game has left me. Leaving aside that the graphics are pretty... Simple, to put it mild, with very stilted animations. Initially I thought a succession of puzzles, interspersed with a walking-simulator. It'S A shame there'S no more interactivity with the scenarios. Although I have to admit that episode 2 and 3 have liked me a lot more, although they are the same, they are better made and the puzzles are a little more interesting, although they are still quite easy. It's Not very long, in total it took about 7 hours, no rush. At first I thought it would take less, but I was pleasantly surprised with its duration. What I liked most is the atmosphere, Indiana Jones, in the 1920s, exploring various archaeological sites. The game does not hide the references to Indiana Jones and pays him small tributes at various points. I was struck that there are several references to Bible passages, which I find very interesting, because it is not very common to see it in video games. Don't expect shots or any action scenes. Here is all explore (limited), solve puzzles and observe small kinematics. Splashed all with a little sense of humour, some clichés and very good intentions. In Summary, if you are on sales and you are not very fussy with the graphics, you will have a nice time with this adventure. Especially after the first episode, then it's getting better by the little bit.
