Vowel rated The Tower at Tortenna

Vowel rated a game 8 years ago
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS.

Bad game design, there are basically no systems in place to help guide the player through the experience. There are too many places to aimlessly explore, too many paths to take at once and i had the feeling to explore everything, so naturally i wandered around and because the walking is so slow this was very annoying, so when i finally after about 10 min figured out what the goal was, i started collecting the things. I had gotten 2 and was carrying one in my hand, and because of the slow walking and not knowing how far i had to still go and if there would be any more pieces later on, i decided to drop one of the pieces off the bridge, so i could carry another one later on in case i found one and i didn't want to go all the way back since its so slow. I discovered later that the piece i dropped had fallen off the map! Great! 30 min of my time completely wasted! Thank you for this nightmare, just in time for Halloween. I would have rated 1/5 but there really was a lot of effort put into this, and felt bad because i know how difficult game making is, so 2/5 it is.
