Scraply programmed with Unity. Full Screen does not go, XBox controller is not detected, without Controllers virtually unplayable, buttons partially do not react, Keyboard Layout is not shown. I tried it despite all the Problems, a Real waste Of Time.

Here's my first Review for a Game and it goes with a Thumbs down Lot. The Reason the Game greets you with a Text games most possessed with Controller, well my Speedlink Controller is not recognized and on the Keyboard I then hang on the first Chapter because of turning around Tightly, have pressed all the buttons what the Keyboard has, nothing happens and that the Game This means we don't need a control setting in the Options is more than a shame Because of it thumbs down

In itself, Manual Samuel is a perfect Co-op experience for a fun Evening on the Couch. The fantastic Setting and the charming Look paired with the Gameplay, which makes every Movement of the Character a trifling Task, you can let yourself be entertained for a few Hours. Unfortunately, the Boss fight is unbelievably hard at the End, which I Think should be done in advance. Because when you've finally defeated the final Opponent and taken almost as long to do it as for the entire Game before, a somewhat vein Aftertaste is left behind that Manual Samuel wouldn't actually need.

Manual Samuel offers a funny Story. The Options menu already states that a Controller is recommended and it must be really easier to get through the Game (with some Keyboards this is even impossible to avoid, as there may be problems-more on that below). Since the Keyboard control Is not good, it can be really frustrating to memorize or retrieve the changing Actions for the new Sections as quickly as possible. Especially with the Boss Fights, you are unfortunately stuck for some Time. The Story itself offers nothing really new, but skillfully entertains. The Depiction of Death is quite comical at first Glance, but the gangstapper Cliché Becomes desolate to annoying in the Long run. The other Figures fit fittingly into Manual Samuel's Plot and Humour, but otherwise remain pale. Unfortunately, I couldn't finish the Game because in the last Bossfight more than three Buttons of the Keyboard are needed and my Keyboard doesn't recognize this. Now I can either buy another Keyboard or buy a Controller that I have never needed until now for PC Games and actually don't want to buy extra. So the Price of the Game, which in my Case would require an additional Purchase, is put into perspective. So Check beforehand if this Problem can occur with your Keyboard!
