Shinsekai Into the Depths

i just finished the game today and overall it played well except for the submarine controls. And when you have to fight one of the bosses with it it is absolutely terrible. But other than that the game took some understanding to get used to, and i got about a quarter of the way in and got stuck. and then i gave up on it for a while and came back to it today and figured out where to go. And after that i just finished the game and i didn’t realize how much time passed. But it was around 6 hours that’s how immersed i was. And i really didn’t enjoy the ending that much and i played both of the endings. Which theres a good and bad ending and i will say the good ending is satisfying but kind of sad at the same time. But look at me i got sad over two characters that don’t even have any dialogue😂😭. But overall it was a pretty okay game for a mobile side scroller. Overall i give this game a 4.5 but it won’t let me do 4.5 on the app store

The game plays very well. Graphics, music, sounds are all part of the underwater world you are making your way through as you find all you need to survive. Of course, it is trial and error with certain aspects of the game. But it us fun and I quite enjoy all the features. If I do not fully understand some of the game, I will work with it until I eventually do make it through the challenge. With that being said, I would like to learn that I have yet to find is a much deeper instruction on features not covered within the games basic instructions. If there were a way to go to a specific gameplay directions, it may not be as frustrating while trying to figure out some unique feature not explained with the existing instructions. There nay be a site that goes into the overall gameplay that I am unaware exists. If there is, I would love to know. But this game ranks high on my favorites within the Apple Arcade grouling.

I was hooked as soon as I started and beat the game in twelve hours (over about three days) The only thing I didn’t like was how hard it was to understand the storyline. I got most of it but some of the portraits I had to stare at for a long time to understand it. Also I really love completion in game and I thought I’d be able to go back in after the final boss and collect everything I didn’t before. Instead it keeps spawning me at the save point before the boss. And this would be fine but the trigger to this final boss is also the elevator to go back up. So because I forgot to make an alternate save before I got to the bottom-bottom I’m in a loop of just fighting the boss. Loved it and I hope to see another like it

It starts out almost promising before it reveals itself to be a middling Metroidvania. One could say that it is impressive that they jammed a game like this into my pocket rectangle. That is not true however since we were happy in much poorer hardware in consoles and PCs decades ago; it would have been impressive to see a game well adapted to phone use. Alas, everything having to do with it being a phone game does not work. The controls are terrible; crashing into stuff because the control limitations were not thought through has not been acceptable in video games for the past 20 years. Why are we back to it now? Furthermore, phone games need to accommodate being frequently paused and resumed; played for a few minutes at a time. This means games need to have a very robust map and checkpoint systems. These game has neither. Who does not have a computer or a console these days? Those media allow for playing for hours at a time and therefore do not need the above features. However, a phone game gets old very quickly without them.

Waited for this game since it’s reveal on the Apple Event, only to be somewhat distasteful experience due to the lack of adjustable controls it’s really clunky experience trying to get a hang over the thrusters. The blurred out graphics on my iPhone X doesn’t make any sense at all! I can’t adjust the graphics, kinda depicts the visual aesthetics of the game from its true self. The Pros are certainly there; for say the movements of the character seem so polished, even the movement of the flashlight is somewhat breathtaking for me. The climbing effects, and many little other things like the controller support it actually fixes the hassle of the controlling issue and makes the experience even better then before but I’m carrying a DualShock 4 or whatever else with me at all times! So other stuff like achievements of dying all make up an overall good experience but not amazing due to the cons. If they can get fixed just like No Mans Sky I can change my review but for now I stand by it.
