[h1] Information / Review English [/h1] Lazarus A.D. 2222 falls into the Visual Noval-Cyberpunk genre, which was developed by Sons of Welder and FM Simple Games Studio. [h1] Gameplay / Story [/h1] One day the world as we knew it will no longer be as it was. It is because people destroyed them themselves, through their own actions. The world is now contaminated in every nook and cranny and has become dystopian. Our new home is now in the clouds in a city that is contaminated with radioactivity. But there is hope that the system can be repaired by our hero. The system lies far down in a core. The difficulty lies in getting there first, as we face many dangers in order to reach our goal. I don't want to give away too much of the game's content, but we find a cool setting and interesting characters in the game, all of whom are unique and play their roles well. We accompany the whole thing with appropriate animations and visual effects, which have been very well integrated into the game. [h1] Pro [/h1] + Cyberpunk scenario + Hand-drawn concepts + great visual effect + smaller puzzles + dark graphic style + atmospheric background music + suitable price/performance ratio + Achievements [h1] Contra [/h1] - few languages ​​only available [h1] Conclusion [/h1] Lazarus A.D. 2222 combines puzzles with dark visuals, which, in keeping with the scenario, creates an apocalyptic atmosphere. [h1][url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/26335619-Adult-World-Gamers/] First of all, thank you to the developer for providing us with this key for the group. Here you can find more good reviews from others and me and if you liked the review, then we would be happy about a thumbs up. [/url][/h1] [h1] Information / Review Deutsch [/h1] Lazarus A.D. 2222 fällt in das Genre Visual Noval-Cyberpunk, welches von Sons of Welder und FM Simple Games Studio entwickelt wurde. [h1] Gameplay / Geschichte [/h1] Eines Tages ist die Welt wie wir sie kannten nicht mehr so wie sie war. Es liegt daran, dass die Menschen diese selbst vernichtet haben, verschuldet durch das eigene Handeln. Die Welt ist nun verseucht an allen Ecken und Kanten und dystopisch geworden. Unser neues Zuhause ist nun in den Wolken in einer Stadt, welche radioaktiv verseucht ist. Es besteht aber Hoffnung, den das System kann durch unseren Held repariert werden. Das System liegt weit unten in einem Kern. Die Schwierigkeit besteht darin, erstmal dorthin zu gelangen, da wir vielen Gefahren ausgesetzt sind um unser Ziel zu erreichen. Ich möchte nicht soviel vom Inhalt des Spiels verraten, aber wir finden ein cooles Setting und interessante Charaktere im Spiel wieder, welche alle einzigartig sind und ihre Rollen gut spielen. Begleitet wir das Ganze noch durch passende Animationen und visuelle Effekte, welche sehr gut in das Spiel integriert wurden. [h1] Pro [/h1] + Cyberpunk Szenario + Handgezeichnete Konzepte + tolle visuelle Effekt + kleinere Rätsel + düsterer Grafikstil + stimmungsvolle Musikuntermalung + passendes Preis/Leistungsverhältnis + Errungenschaften [h1] Kontra [/h1] - wenige Sprachen nur verfügbar [h1] Fazit [/h1] Lazarus A.D. 2222 kombiniert Rätsel mit düsterer Optik, welche passend zum Szenario zu einer Endzeitstimmung führt.

Hier findest du weitere gute Bewertungen von anderen und mir unter und wenn dir das Review gefallen hat, dann würden wir uns über einen Daumen nach oben freuen. [/url][/h1]

10 из 10 Очень понравилась игра, в стиле хоррора и сюрреализма. Однозначно стоит попробовать на вечер, а то и больше https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3492579510

This game finally contextualizes the Magnus series which I thought were not directly connected, if you played them individually they just seem like a metaphor for a mundane loop of life, but this game more or less puts everything together with a strange twist, even though it's still an introspective experience, I am not sure if the whole thing is a metaphor or if the dystopian world in this final game actually exists. In that sense, this game is a reward IF* you followed these games and gave up trying to understand them, I certainly didn't think the developer would actually go and connect these odd adventures, in my eyes there is no point playing this game unless you have that context from previous releases, it just feels like the whole thing was building up to this final conclusion. Honestly it's a bit of a shock for me, the last 20 seconds of the game or so just smacks everything together, and I am like oh *****, I have been deceived all this time XD. It's a short visual novel with a few awkward puzzles, you could probably beat it in under 30 minutes, but I would encourage you to make a second playthrough because there is some important context that is unique to some of the dialogue choices. The whole dystopian thing is a bit deceiving, I thought it was going to be some kind of gloomy post-apocalyptic adventure, but once again, it just takes a weird intellectual turn with metaphors and deep perspectives on life and your place in it. I actually started to enjoy the game more once it got weird, somewhere around the commercials this game loses all sense of grounded narration and everything goes into obscurity. I thought the game had a bit of a unique presentation as far as visual novels go, granted the art style feels a bit random at times, but I think it has some charm to with all of the strange illustrations, I like the how you use the light putting the shades on the faces. [h1] Pros: [/h1] (+) I think the game has a very rewarding twist assuming that you actually played the other Magnus games, after several years these seemingly disjointed games are finally part of the same coherent narrative, that said, I am not sure if the game would work as well if you skip them. (+) I always enjoyed the randomness and weird illustrations that you have in your games, and while I think this game could have been paced a little better, it was still a very unusual visual experience, maybe not an objectively good one, but it is unique and for me it's better than another average visual novel. (+) The music choice was good, the game had a nice gloomy atmosphere. [h1] Feedback: [/h1] I felt like the story started and concluded a bit too fast, we go from their seemingly another routine mission to a concept of transcendence in like 25 minutes, and on top of that the twist only really works if you played previous games. The game gives you a lot to think about and probably asks more questions than it answers, and I get that maybe that is the point, maybe I am not meant to take everything literally, but I thought we could have another section in the middle with a bit more character development. [b] Overall Thoughts: 7/10 [/b] For me, it was an unusual experience because I didn't expect any kind of resolution for the Magnus games, giving context to 3 psychological adventures that were only connected by a glimpse of thematic similarities, I don't think most devs would have that kind of patience and foresight. So yea, I think it was a very cool and unexpected game, but I know there are maybe only 3 people that followed them, so I am not sure if the game works by itself. Sons of Welder is one of those creative forces in the dark corners of Steam that makes unique games with seemingly no recognition, I personally really enjoy your visuals and the patience to put this all together. They may not be great games individually, but I think they are different enough to make them worth playing.
