I was so excited when I played "Escape Room 16 Temple Ruins"! Although it is not an adaptation of a big IP, the portrait of the heroine from Slavic mythology directly touched my XP! 🥹 You know, she's the kind of botanist who is a royal sister, with brown hair in a ponytail, green eyes, and wearing archaeological gloves. She looks like she came from "Mushishi"! Moreover, the furry elf in the background is actually the mascot, it looks like a scene from "Beast Girl Zoo"!
As a senior 2D gamer, I admit that I often fall into the trap regardless of the combat system because of the style of painting. For example, a certain domestic sand sculpture game "Moe Girl Restaurant" has a terrible plot, but the Q version of the vertical painting + Kugimiya Rie's CV I was immediately blown away! But to be honest, the restoration of many games adapted from anime IPs is actually quite impressive... For example, in the mobile game "A Certain Scientific Railgun", the combo animation of Sister Pao only has a joystick + flash special effects. It would be better to make Sister Pao directly into a poster girl licking the screen! 😤
Back to this escape room, the details of its vertical painting are really explosive. The plant specimens on the protagonist's backpack, the relief textures in the scene, and even the wrinkles of the NPC Slavic grandmother are all drawn in a "Kiki's Delivery Service" style. Although the combat system is about 0 (just click and look for clues), the cutscenes that suddenly pop up when solving puzzles, and the storyboard is like watching a Hegemony Club episode! 😭
By the way, I would like to mention that in the recent gacha game adapted from "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba", the special effects of Tanjiro's breathing method were actually made into 50-cent filters. I was so angry that I uninstalled it on the spot! On the contrary, this kind of niche stand-alone game can carefully design the characters to have a "krypton gold figure" quality. This is the real animation feeling! ✨
Anyway! If you are a fan of graphic painting and plot, this game is worth spending 200MB on your phone! Anyway, I'm ready to dub the Slavic voice actor for the second time, but her "Davari" shout made me have an orgasm directly in my head! 🤤
