Beat em up and point and click actually work together. The art, voice acting and gameplay are brilliant. The Beat em up difficulty is fair and fun. But what bugs me is the puzzles esp . Those are not well crafted. Good puzzles should be challenging and come with clues that trigger players’ interest and give them a sense of achievement. Games like Nine Witches: Family Disruption and Norco nail it! But in Brok, clues present themselves too obvious and not in an appropriate order. The sequences of puzzles also fail to make sense. For example, . Too many layers of puzzles while giving players no clues about the sequences of each one. If I do not talk to the npc twice, I will be forever stuck there. Puzzles should be well designed and reasonably challenging instead of letting players rely on clue tickets.
I love everything about the game but the prison puzzles really put a bad taste in my mouth. It’s a 10, but with these puzzles, I give it 7.
