David’s 30 Platinum Trophies Before Turning 30
2/30
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: As close to perfection as one can get.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5: Excellence incarnate.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: Amazing experience.
⭐️⭐️⭐️.5: Good game.
⭐️⭐️⭐️: Fun enough to be worth your time.
⭐️⭐️.5: Missed the mark in a considerable amount of elements.
⭐️⭐️: A trudge towards progress/completion.
⭐️.5: A great deal of regrets playing this.
⭐️: Truly disappointing.
.5: Kudos to anyone with a shred of bother.
The above rating descriptions pertain strictly to the overall rating after taking into consideration the elements below, for which I’ll still employ a five-point rating to get an average afterwards.
Graphics: 3 - Pretty okay for something cartoonish, detailed enough, and the colours pop.
Gameplay: 1 - Tedious, and the ability to “run” is like a slap to the face.
Audio: 1.5 - I appreciate the voice acting and the original (?) soundtrack (which is considerably lacking in terms of options), but anything else doesn’t help the game’s case.
Replay Value: 0.5 - There are three endings as implied by the trophy list. That should have been enough to signal the inclusion of the ability to skip cutscenes. Not only that, there are dialogue options that force you to watch over them again.
Story: 1 - Potentially interesting characters that are disappointingly not fleshed out for a chance to hold this game together even at the slightest bit, but hey, as the main character, they truly are side characters as if in real life: ready to be discarded at a moment’s notice.
Overall: 1.4 - I may not want to go back to this lake.
