Quick Look | STRANGELAND (2021) A 2h long Indie Tale of Purgatory mimicking DarkSeed...
2Tl;dr Summary : A 2h long Indie Tale of Purgatory mimicking DarkSeed with padded puzzles to hide its length ... a fine example is the "Call the Ride Puzzle" , when you first pick random cards and then it spits at you the number if you pick the Future prediction ... the thing is, it spits at you a Word play riddle from "Legend Entertainment" text based adventure times , when they used heavy slang words like "a door is ajar" from "Companions of Xanth" , or the Famous tongue twister First Puzzle from "Callahan's Crosstime Saloon" when you had to Word Play names and type them , not to mention the "Spellcasting" series (a Larry Laffer clone in the Land of magic) that was build around word play riddles ... so now your wondering what is the matter... tell me what jumps into your mind if i say "Three Wanton One Three" ... oh and a raven will say "Call" ... and will give you 4-3 -x-x-x-x ....
I am waiting
giving up
its easy if English is your first language
of if you know slang or played Legend Entertained games
Giving up
its 4311013 ... yes Wanton means 110 aka ONETEN , a slang world "Wanton Destruction" aka "110% Destruction"
Presenting only the first half of this Purgatory tale from this 2h game... that has nice art\sounds\presentation ... but padding puzzles DEAR GOD WTF???!!! is it 1980 again when you had to type a specific word to win.... or 1995 when all did PIXEL FOR HUNTING ITEMS ... but even the dev knows this at 56:00 and its a sad truth of game making ... you have to pad it to fake length , give people PTSD hahaha
