Chants of Sennaar

Das Game war mein erstes handy spiel (und auch iPad) in der Richtung, hätte nicht gedacht das es mich so fesselt. Hat mega Bock gemacht nur zu empfehlen. An einem Punk im spiel bin ich leider an einen unumgänglichen bug gekommen, darauf hin mit dem Support Team in Kontakt getreten und geupdatet sobald es gefixt wurde danach kam leider nochmals ein bug und auch da wieder mit dem Support geschrieben und eine Nachricht bekommen sobald es repariert war. Hatte teilweise das Gefühl das es sogar extra nur wegen mir gemacht wurde. Deswegen einfach stark!

My partner and I played this together during a difficult time in our lives. Thank you so much to everyone who contributed to it! We couldn’t have appreciated the stunning visuals, haunting soundtrack, engaging gameplay, true message, and beautiful details any more than we did.

Leider ist die Schrift ungeeignet für iPhone 14. alles ist so klein geschrieben, dass ich es selbst mit Brille nicht wirklich lesen kann. Nur die Demo ist gratis. Wenn man wirklich spielen möchte, muss man vorher bezahlen.

When I saw the concept of the game, I immediately purchased the game and it was way higher than my expectations. Beautiful visuals, sounds, architecture and interesting content. With minimum dialogue, the game still delivered a deep meaning. It’s a truly unique experience and I love that it made me relax - focus on solving this puzzle rather than falling back to doom scrolling on social media. The only thing they can improve is the interaction button, sometimes it’s just too small.

Chants of Sennaar is a truly unique and remarkable game. In essence a puzzle adventure, but unlike the usual combinatorial riddles encountered in other games. It features great mechanics, loveable characters (which in itself is noteworthy, given that there is no "proper" spoken dialogue and little room for deep character development) and a thrilling, twisted story. There are a few points of critique I would like to mention, none of which is severe enough to even think about changing the vote from 5 stars to anything less. 1. Some scenes are a bit fiddly on a phone. It might be more fun to play on a tablet or a console. Using point-and-click on a touch screen while the camera is moving is always messy. Nevertheless, it's a great game for casual playing in short moments of free time, so playing on the phone is still worth it. 2. There are some riddles/devices that have no visible purpose, even after continuing well beyond their encounter. 3. From time to time it feels a bit annoying having to run through what feels like half the tower in order to get to some place. The teleporters help somewhat, but not enough to never be annoyed by the long walks. Like most puzzle adventures, Chants of Sennaar is not a game you immediately start over once you finish your first playthrough. However, the first playthrough itself was well worth the price of the game already and it does feel like a game you can reinstall and rediscover after a year or so. Unconditional recommendation!

Tolle Atmosphäre, schöne kryptische Story, knackige Rätsel, das Worldbuilding zieht einen sofort in die Story, weil man einfach mehr erfahren will über diese Welt. Es gibt so viele überraschende Momente, ich würde hier sooo gerne spoilern, aber ich tue es natürlich nicht. Unbedingte Empfehlung für jeden Puzzle-Enthusiasten!
