- The Story -
I will not go into every detail of the story now, because of the Spoilergefahr. The story is nothing new ansich. Here, then, was not reinvented the wheel but which is not bad either. The story keeps the common thread throughout the game "tight" and you you can always follow good without the actions are vorraussehbar. The events accelerate with increasing course and then open into a relatively open end. I thought it was OK, and it's definitely fancy a Deponia 2! :-)
- The technique -
The graphics are great. The backgrounds are lovingly decorated and also the locales ansich constantly provide the feeling is actually on a planet full of junk to find.
The resolution is up to date, the cut scenes are pretty and voice, sound effects and background music also give no reason for complaint. Only the slightly wooden character animations disturb a little thing but really no big deal is.
- The Game -
I really had a lot of fun while playing. The story the character develops super, also. The puzzles are broadly kept relatively simple and always easy to solve. What I personally found quite refreshing, the puzzles are all fairly linear, ie they require "thinking" which one is demanded not so hard very little.
The humor I was always fit. I really laughed a few times about the funny situations, dialogues and / or comments of the characters. Even the language style is enjoyable and casual with lots of slang.
The "mini-games" are a bit annoying, that's right. Fortunately, they can be all but skip if you want to do without it.
- Marketing -
I would like to highlight the positive in any case, for the present time, really exemplary marketing. As far as I know the game has no copy protection. So there is no compulsory registration, registration through the Internet, transmission of data to any server or an Internet connection while playing necessary !! The game does not install any additional software .. it does not collect data .. there will a not deceive ..
You put the CD, installed the game and you're done !!! The CD does not even have to be in the CD drive to play.
I really did not believe that nowadays still exists such a thing!
For this, a price of less than 30, - and in addition to the game there will be even with the soundtrack and a poster Deponia something "supplement" for the fan! Class !!
- Conclusion -
Adventure fans should buy the game anyway. Even casual adventure gamers will get their costs. Everyone who also wants to set an example that matches with such a marketing principle can be successful should also be for you!
I absolutely can discover in this game no negative point!
