Atmospheric point and click puzzle adventure story. With voice-acting... and a lingering feeling that you're being overdramatically creative.
It somewhat reminds me of the mildescape escape room games I used to play in terms of point-click-get-make-solve kind of way.
I played for maybe 30-45 minutes then quit after feeling less engaged than I hoped for, and the protagonist felt like they needed some life help with their work. Not terrible, but wasn't super in love with this game either. maybe like a 6/10.
This game is pretty nonverbal, so I didn't get past about 20 minutes of play. I couldn't really figure out what I was supposed to do sometimes, and didn't find it particularly engaging or fun.
I tried playing this game for maybe an hour? I loved the premise bc I love typing, but eventually got turned off of it for a few reasons.
1) I don't enjoy pixel art
2) I found the map and the restriction of only seeing the immediate area annoying to deal with and didn't enjoy trying to keep track of every place I'd been.
3) Making mistakes didn't go over as I expected either -- if you messed up a word you weren't supposed to go back and correct it, but move on to the next word. I also never knew if I was sufficiently keeping up or not.
Eventually got too unwieldy for me to enjoy, so I jumped ship. Maybe I'll try it again someday if I have more patience.
The writing doesn't do it for me at all :c
Perhaps I'm a sufficient spoilsport that on first (very short) runthrough I managed to pick the "you go back to your boring life" path. Tried again but the writing felt too juvenile/bland for me to want to continue after about 20 minutes although the art, bgs, interface etc all look polished. Sadness. 2/5
The gamepage says it all, lol. A simulation school management game where you try to turn multivariable kids into obedient pineapples, while fulfilling different objectives for your school. I played the first 4-5 levels before stopping, probably a few hours total. Premise is funny and game interface is clean, but I grew kind of tired of what I felt was micromanaging just to achieve the goal per level. Maybe I'll play it through someday when I'm more in the mood for it. Probably a 4.5 for someone else who likes these sorts of games but more of a 3.8 or 4 /5 for me.
played for several hours. like the premise and the artwork but some of the maps exhibit poor tilesets... not bad for a tactical game considering that i dont enjoy tactical games. i primarily agree with this review https://techraptor.net/gaming/reviews/hellenica-review-ancient-greek-steampunk-t...
I really want to play this game, except I can't play first person anything without feeling like throwing up, unfortunately.
it's like a giant fidget cube with lots of colors, but you're trying to accomplish something, except you don't know what you're trying to accomplish. Played 2-3 levels before quitting, a bit too psychedelic for me.
