First off all: I have not done everything there is to do in the game! I raided the Castle, fought the final battle, tried to catch the empress… and then decided, that having all the achievements is enough. There was still story left. But honestly? Since I couldn't read the full text half of the time - couldn't scroll somehow -, I really didn't care that much. I mean, it's pretty obv by then what's going on. Yeah, maybe there is still a surprise hidden in the rest of the story, but it doesn't really matter.
31h in I can say, I played it. I can also put it aside without feeling bad or anything. Since I played at the same time (still playing tbh) the free game "Lost Lands: A Hidden Object Adventure" I could constantly compare them. And sadly this one is not that good imho. Why? Well first of all: The scrolling of the text didn't work. Secondly: I was constantly a bit stressed while doing the HOS, bc with this one you try to find all the objects in a streak. Obv you get more coins, exp or energy, the more objects you can find, while the other game works by time only. If you manage to find the objects in a certain amount of time, you get x things. The more time you need, the less you get - or such. Ultimalety that also lead to me not managing all the HOS in Mystic Saga. I still can't just click around in the Swamp and find everthing, just doesn't work. While the scenes in Lost Lands are way more familiar to me. So yeah, Mystic Saga looses with that. ALSO if you manage to find objects in a row, the coins/exp/energy start blocking your view, which makes it even harder finding the next thing. TOTALLY ANNOYING if you ask me. So I didn't like that. Although the achievements vor Mystic Saga are obv way easier to get… bc you don't need to do EVERYTHING, but just like: visit 5 times every places and interact 5 times with every creature and stuff. So that's far quicker to achieve. Still I had a good enough time with it :)
Recommendation? Kinda, yes?

So maybe I have never had the right Kinetic Nove, bc this one was very smooth, very easy to read and quite nice. Although I kept asking myself if I had missed something - with how suddenly ppl from the castle appeared and it seemed as if there was something with their relationship we should know. Which I didn't. So it seemed as if I was missing something. So dunno what was going on.
But apart from that it was nice to see how the story went on. How the three girls continued the journey home. But oh man! If it's gonna be all the way? I'm not sure they'll ever make it. Getting involved with though situations, trying to solve them, getting even more involved. Wow. Yeah, we might just start everywhere a revolution. Which would also be pretty funny, tbh :]
Hidden LEWD rating: Yeah, no. It's still not that kinda game - yes, we totally have an achievement for that :)
Recommendation? Yep, keep going


Cat Story ahead!
Nope, sry

So much from me :)
Have a lovely week!

Dad Tip #92 - You’re never too busy or important to be kind to others

Trent

It’s always funny when you can 100% a game without even beating it. :p

ninglor03

Well no! I did beat it! At least I think beating the evil one is beating it nod nod

Trent

Oh, I guess I misread that. I’ve never heard of side quests or optional content in a HOG (other than bonus chapters).

ninglor03

Normal HOGs don’t. But this is one that works with having enough energy so you can only play it like once per day - unless you spent money. After having finished the main story you get more Missions, to keep you entertained - at least that was the case with the free-to-play one. Which I still haven’t finished, bc you need to play it WAY more…

Lucky Thirteen

Oh hey, looks like you managed to get DARK running in the end? That’s neat :)
And ugh, I should go back and finish Mystic Saga as well O.o

ninglor03

Yeah, I started it as Admin. Thought I had to do that all the time, but apparently it really was the resolution, so it worked out fine :)
Yeah, well it’s a get-back-to-it-every-day thing which is super draining after a while -.- (But I guess you already know that :D )

Lucky Thirteen

Ah, so a rather easy-to-solve issue with DARK, then? Good, that’s good. I’m curious to read what you thought of the game when you finish it and write an update :)
And oh yeah, I know about Mystic Saga being a “daily” thing. I do like HOGs, but this was a bit too much. The bloody thing just drags on and on and frankly, I think it overstays its welcome.

ninglor03

Yep, I’m curious to see how that turns out as well :D

I know, right? See, that’s the reason why I stopped playing it after getting all the cheevos and… well overthrowing the empress. So yeah, enough of that!
Funny though how I still enjoy Lost Lands thinking

Zeruel

How’s 911 Operator so far for you? I felt like people were really harsh to the game when it was on the Monthly, but I personally really liked the game.

ninglor03

I have fun with it, so good enough :)
But it might really get a bit repetitive. Still I hope to get all cheevos - still working on that :)
I’m just totally confused, bc when I look at the cheevos just like that in my lib it’s saying I’m missing some I really already got. And once I click on all cheevos, I have different ones missing. So… ugh, what am I missing? What do I still need? Weird that thing. But I’ll just keep pushing :D

Zeruel

Wouldn’t be the first time if Steam decided to link to another user’s achievements or something like that.
Can’t really help you with that though :/

That’s why games with achievements also require an in-game menu for them.

ninglor03

Na, it was more like having twice the same acvhievement missing - which just doesn’t work, right?? And one I already did but instead missing another one. All messed up. But today it seems to be all correct :D

Yeah, luckily this one has just that. So I’m on the save site :D
