Triton is searching for a legendary place of magic called Kveendolnitza. To do so in this puzzle and exploration game, just point and click your way through an Escher-esque city of stairs and pathways, using wits and ingenuity to get past doors and unusual creatures. This surreal world is a beautiful sight, worth playing, if for no other reason, to ogle every visual delight. Even the ambient sounds and serene music are an aural treat. Yet the gameplay is also enjoyable for the discovery aspects as well as the pleasure of solving a few light puzzles, including a touch of arithmetic and astronomy (just as you would expect from those sagacious ancients!) They're nothing to take you out of the moment, needing just a bit of thought to solve, although you will rely just as much on trial and error. Similar in concept to Samorost or Hapland, although very unique in its own style, there's plenty of interactivity, both for amusement and to aid Triton toward his goal. Kveendolnitza 2 (Nov 2013) After Triton passed through a space-time hole, it deformed the neighboring universe, disrupting phases of the moon and other important bits. Will Triton be able to use the kveendolnitza to restore the old order? Explore the world around you, search strange surroundings to uncover useful objects and use them in the correct order, solving riddles and other puzzles, and you'll find the answer at the end. Played mainly by hovering your cursor around the intricately detailed landscape, looking for when it changes to a pointing finger (for selecting items) or footprints (for moving). The caveat is, you can only use certain items or move some places after completing the proper tasks. You don't have pockets, so items you pick up will float glowing on the same setting as where you need to use them. You'll find more mini-game-style tasks here, some requiring dexterity, careful listening or sharp eyes. In fact, much of your success, both in the main game and the optional quest for jjgsaw pieces, will depend on your ability to spot shapes at just the time they're usable. This sequel has snazzier graphics and harder puzzles. Kveendolnitza 3 (Nov 2013) This continuation is the first part to be a commercial game for the low price of $2.98 | ||
