Siempre he sido fan de los juegos de Tower Defense y hace mucho tiempo que buscaba uno que cumpliese mis expectativas. Tower Factory lo consigue, y le añade una capa de gestionar recursos que hace que todo sea más dinámico, estratégico y entretenido.

El juego engancha mucho, tiene mucho factor de exploración para encontrar recursos y la torre enemiga, y tiene muchas mejoras que desbloquear por si se te dificulta la partida.

Bueno no te como más la olla, juego de torres, recursos, gestión, cintas, setas malignas y monstruos raros. Lo bueno es que cuando ganas una partida, te sientes muy inteligente por haberlo conseguido.

Amanda the Adventurer 2 is great.
I played the first game, and this one is even better. Some of the puzzles are tough but really fun to figure out, There's also some secret tapes and a secret ending, so you have to play it more than one time to get all endings.
Definitely recommend if you enjoyed the first one.

I've been enjoying this game so far. After playing for 8 hours, trying to unlock all the endings, I can say it's both fun and interesting. The voiceovers are well-done, and the availability of subtitles in multiple languages is a big plus.

Visually, the game looks fantastic. The animal designs are scary and highly original, contributing to the overall eerie atmosphere. The lighting and creepy ambiance of the zoo are on point, and I really like the character designs. The story is captivating, keeping you hooked as you uncover the dangers of the zoo and the mysterious behavior of the animals.

The gameplay, however, can feel tedious at times. There are many small tasks to complete, and the animations for each task can slow down the pace. That said, the core gameplay of investigating animals, taking measurements, and finding the correct treatment while evading monsters is engaging.

One standout feature is the number of different endings and story changes, which adds great replay value. However, I would love to see a save option before critical decisions. The biggest frustration in trying to get all 23 endings is that you have to replay the entire game just to make one small change and unlock a different outcome. Being able to save and alter your decisions would make it much more enjoyable to explore all the endings.

Overall, I recommend the game. It's fun to play, the story is original and creepy, and there's a lot of replay value despite a few minor frustrations. Plus the devs are constantly updating and working on patches/bug corrections so that's great!

Amazing anomaly-reporting game.

I've played many observation games, and this one is among the best. The scenarios are very well done, and you can choose the difficulty level (easy - normal - hard). I usually find the first few hours in these games challenging because it takes me a while to memorize the anomalies. However, having an easy mode allows you to practice for the challenge of the harder mode. Additionally, if you lose the game, it highlights the types of anomalies that caused the game over, so you can learn and improve in the next round.

Highly recommended.

The game is very addictive. I thought I would play just a couple of games, but I ended up playing more time to get all the upgrades. It is very well balanced and combines resource gathering and base defense perfectly. I recommend it, I’m eager to play it all the way through.

El mejor de toda la saga. Con este se han lucido. Y con buenos toques de humor.
Mi personaje favorito: el alien del hotel.

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME.

The game is FULL of bugs, problems, and softlocks everywhere. Monsters kill you, and you instantly respawn next to them, triggering a loop of respawn-being killed-respawn. There are several areas in the game where you can "get out" of the path and become trapped (for example, in the metal maze).

Bugs aside, the game makes zero sense. There's no story; you're just dropped into an "anomaly zoo." The game's optimization is REALLY BAD. I have a 4080Ti, Ryzen 2700X, and I have had zero problems with the majority of games released this year on EPIC settings, but this game somehow runs at 20-25fps with medium quality.

THE PUZZLES. I can't emphasize enough how frustrating the puzzles are. You need to try the puzzles 5 or 6 times before clearing them, just by luck. The game penalizes you for every attempt with an absurd bulb system used to trigger the puzzles. The puzzles make no sense because they all consist of planks moving with magic and throwing you to random places (you have to guess where the landing spot is without any more help than pure intuition and trial and error).

This game is extremely frustrating, poorly designed, and honestly, it seems like a joke and a money grab to me.

NO COMPRES ESTE JUEGO.

El juego está PLAGADO de errores, problemas y bloqueos en todas partes. Los monstruos te matan, y instantáneamente reapareces junto a ellos, desencadenando un ciclo de respawn-ser asesinado - respawn. Hay varias áreas en el juego donde puedes "salirte" del camino y quedar atrapado (por ejemplo, en el laberinto de metal).

Aparte de los errores, el juego no tiene sentido alguno. No hay historia; simplemente te dejan caer en un "zoológico de anomalías". La optimización del juego es REALMENTE MALA. Tengo una 4080Ti, Ryzen 2700X, y no he tenido ningún problema con la mayoría de los juegos lanzados este año en configuraciones EPIC, pero este juego de alguna manera funciona a 20-25fps con calidad media.

LOS PUZZLES. Son lo más frustrante que he visto. Necesitas intentar los rompecabezas 5 o 6 veces antes de resolverlos, solo por suerte. El juego te penaliza por cada intento con un absurdo sistema de bombillas usado para activar los puzzles. La mayoría no tienen sentido porque todos consisten en tablones moviéndose con magia y lanzándote a lugares aleatorios (tienes que adivinar dónde está el lugar de aterrizaje sin más ayuda que pura intuición y ensayo y error).

Este juego es extremadamente frustrante, mal diseñado y honestamente, me parece una broma y un intento de sacarte el dinero.

Todos los juegos de Midnight Scenes están cuidados al detalle y A Safe Place sigue la misma línea.

-Gráficamente, tiene un estilo pixelart que me encanta y que encaja muy bien con las historias que cuenta. Tiene un rollo como nostálgico que le pega mucho.
-La banda sonora y los efectos de sonido están muy bien cuidados. La música acompaña muy bien la historia.
-La narrativa del juego es lo mejor. Consigue meterte en la piel del protagonista y te hace empatizar y entender al resto de personajes.

I CAN MANIPULATE TIME. I CAN MANIPULATE PEOPLE. I CAN RULE THIS KINGDOM-

The game is super fun! It's got loads of characters, all super likable and funny, so you really feel connected to them.

Even though you're basically doing the same things—deciding who gets in, questioning folks, and digging into their stories—the game keeps surprising you with new twists, different places to explore, extra missions, and tons of stuff to do.

Each time you play, you learn something new and find something different, which keeps things fresh. And you can play it over and over because your choices really matter. Letting one person in could totally change how you interact with a bunch of others, and that ripple effect keeps things interesting.

Honestly, it's one of the best games I've played this year for sure :D

Un juego muy bueno para jugar solo o incluso invitando a amigos.
Lo he jugado en el baño con el portátil y la verdad he estado como 35 minutos y lo cierto es que el asunto se había quedado un poco incómodo y luego he tenido que ir a la ducha. Pero la experiencia jugabilística? 10/10.

Recomiendo.
