(just couldn’t get into the part where you have three concurrent plot lines, too confusing and overwhelming for me)

I loved that part, it reminded me of the three trials from Monkey Island.

I was hoping that it would be available in box rather than download only. But I still plan on picking it up in the near future. In the US all sources are priced at $19.99. I understand it’s less expensive from some sources in Europe.

the game has been reviewed somewhere, no need to link it , but what i got from the review with the 70% rating .. that is holds nice Puzzles but a couple a so illogical ones, it has a very slow pace, appealing to children more than adults ,Dodgy character animation,  Minor interface Bugs that happen in a form og halting the game for a couple of secs .
but with that it had praised the animation and the music and mentioned also great dialogue .. so what i get that the game as several of previous Daedalic’s needed more polishing .. i also wondered about praising the animations which suggests it is a very good step forward for Daedalic ..

hope we/i to enjoy it and even if Daedalic games as much as they do not have the greatest outlook sometimes.. they always guaranteed at least to minimum point of satisfaction, i mean there are hardly any game from Daedalic that can be described as a bad experience, with some or many cons ; the pros were always capable to make me forget about all of them which most of the times those cons seem to be due some budget/technical issues.

I’ve just been playing it for a couple of minutes now, and so far I’m quite optimistic. It looks absolutely gorgeous, the music and sounds are great and fits perfectly with the setting. I don’t know how I feel about the voice-overs yet, but they seem decent enough for a translated game. I’m quite confident this is gonna be a very pleasurable experience

Finally a non-indie ag,I’d like to try this Daedelic title but looks extremely childish again.Hope they’ll remember agamers older than 18 one day.

I pretty much just starting playing it, so i can’t really say that much yet, but so far it has disappointed me a just a little bit. It hasn’t really “captured” me the same way most other Daedelic titles did, that might of course changes as i get further into the game.

The Night of The Rabbit was the most anticipating game for this year in my list and so far it doesn’t dissapoint.

This game was on my must buy list as well. (See earlier post.) But I’m having second thoughts based on thread comments of people who are actually playing the game. While nobody disputes the gorgeous graphics, everything else, seemes to be a bit hit or miss.

the only thing really bothers me ‘til now the slowness of everything the cutscene ,dialogues i have to skip by clicking each one as there is and undefinable pause between one and the next, the loading from one screen to the other..etc
it kinds reminds me of the whispered world bugging.. but Daedelic had already updated these issue with their following games after the TWW such Deponia(s) ,Chains and Harvey(s) ... i hope there will be a kind a patch or new version with all those bugs (minor of course) fixed.

but anyway i love Daedelic .. they have this obvious upgrade/update from year to year and game to game the only thing that stays the same since their start is the Character odd movements (walking) .

If the only adult themes came up your mind are sinister and disturbing that’s your priorty.
Anyway i had enough playing child tales as ag too.

Well, I’m in my thirties, yet I’m loving the game, and it’s getting better and better as I progress. Matthias Kempke truly has created a magical fantasy world for us to explore. If you like the idea of travelling to an entirely different world, this game should not be missed.

It plays like the good old adventures where you have lots of screens to visit and many inventory items that aren’t necessarily “cleaned up” after use. There are also optional things to do in the game, like collecting dewdrops and stickers around mousewood (these features are similar to the “where’s Dildo” game in Leisure Suit Larry 7), or collecting cards than can be used to play a game the locals call “quartets”. Some of these cards are acquired through solving optional puzzles. The music, sounds and atmosphere is great. The puzzles are all logical, but with this number of screens and inventory items they do present a challenge, and the difficulty level suggests that this isn’t a game that is primarily aimed at kids. In my opinion, this is the best adventure game released so far in 2013.

I have one complaint about the English speech files though, which have been poorly implemented. The volume is uneven and the files have also sometimes been cut badly, a spoken sentence may be cut off a little too soon, and what’s missing will show up in the beginning of another sentence. The language barrier prevents me from explaining this better, but I assume others who’s played the game may have noticed what I’m talking about. That being said, this is a minor issue which will probably be patched, it does not ruin the gameplay and it may be that I’m only picking up on it because I regularly work with audiofiles in a studio, and that it may not be something that will bother others.

Anyway, for those on the fence, I warmly recommend giving this game a chance, it’s certainly worth it.
