Topic: RA Game Evaluation Dec 4 Ancient Secrets.

  • RA Game Evaluation Dec 4 Ancient Secrets.

    Report as Inappropriate

    I posted this in the wrong forum so I am starting a new one here. I downloaded and played RAs "Ancient Secrets" There are NO hints!!! It has cute graphics. Some of the objects are harder to find than other. Without hints and no time limit, I guess if you can't find an object, you have to start a new game. It does sparkle where an object is, but it takes a while for it to do that.

     

    At least with games that have time limits, if you get stuck, you can just wait until the time is up and get a new list of objects to find, but with this game, you can't do that. I almost got stuck by the DIve store. You are supposed to find a raven. Ravens are black, or so I thought. I couln't find it!! Then there was a sparkle in one of the trees. The raven was the same color as the dark green tree and blended in with it.

     

    I really don't think the game will sell well if it doesn't have a hint feature or at least a timed feature.

     

    Other than that it is a cute game. I hope they fix it

    Now the other side of the coin, I enjoyed the game. As far as no hints, if you cannot find an item there is a little light that will start blinking by an item on the list. I liked the concept of the different puzzles and the whole layout of the game. IMHO I thought it was a good game.

    I quite liked it, too, EIEIO. I enjoyed the puzzles and figuring out what to do. My only concern is the length - it seemed like I was almost halfway through in an hour, judging by the number of pieces of the key I had. All in all, though, quite enjoyable.

    I liked the game too. Had no problem with no hints--the items were pretty easy to find. The sparkles helped also. I enjoyed the problem-solving aspect. I was wondering about the length also, since I question the replay vaue.

    I liked this game too. I liked the puzzles and listening to the people telling you what to do. I seen the sparkling also when needed.

    I really liked Ancient Secrets.  The graphics and storyline are great.  And for all of those who do not like to read the story/dialog there is a Skip button.   The game is a bit challenging but very do-able.  Not having hints or a walkthrough really wasn't a problem during the 60 minute demo.  It's not as intense as RTR, but extremely well done.  I am also wondering about the length and replay value.  I'll probably wait until it comes to Shockwave to finish playing since funds are limited during this holiday season.

    I found it extremely easy til i got to dave's dive where you have to turn on the lights, i then ran out of time :( No idea how to do it or even if it can be done. Not sure about buying it as it seems really small.
