Heaven’s Vault

Post by ola small dickie »

"The only translation issues will be your own in inkle's substantial, beautifully written archeological adventure with its own ancient language to decipher."

The Good:

Entirely made-up language to decipher captures spirit of real world translation and provides a unique challenge
Absorbing universe bursting with intricate details and lore to delve into
Dialogue is beautifully written with lyrical flourishes
Involving and original story with plenty of twists and turns

The Bad:

Pacing is slow and the gameplay starts to feel repetitious many hours in
Controls can be imprecise, particularly when choosing between hotspots

Our Verdict:

The detailed landscapes, engaging plot and intriguing premise of a completely fictional ancient language to decipher make Heaven’s Vault a game for which it’s worth getting lost in translation.

L-am terminat. Mi-a plăcut combinația de adventure/visual novel/puzzle lingvistic. Lumea pe care o creează e foarte mișto, cu un lore bogat, dar mi-aș fi dorit ca toată aventura să culmineze într-un final mai zemos. E posibil să fie de la mine totuși. Jocul are tot felul de alegeri care contează și mici ramificații în poveste și e posibil să fi ratat unele detalii cruciale pentru context. Pe de altă parte, jocul e foarte relaxat (și relaxant) și nu am simțit la niciun pas stresul că nu fac alegerile care trebuie.
