Review anarchistica 2/5 · Jul 15, 2019
Why does Artifex Mundi publish this crap?
Tibetan Quest is a HOG with decent production value that starts out nice but is ruined by three major flaws.
First of all, the characters wear their faces like some sort of creepy mask. It's really bizarre and creepy.
Secondly, the hidden object puzzles are bad. They're too easy, every one is used twice, they have objects that change form …
Tibetan Quest is a HOG with decent production value that starts out nice but is ruined by three major flaws.
First of all, the characters wear their faces like some sort of creepy mask. It's really bizarre and creepy.
Secondly, the hidden object puzzles are bad. They're too easy, every one is used twice, they have objects that change form (ugh) and they always have the same music playing which really gets on your nerves because you have to play many of them.
Finally, the solutions required to advance the story and some of the puzzles are incredibly poorly designed and illogical. I actually got stuck a few times because the next step to take was either dumb or too vague. E.g. you blow up most of a room to cross a lava stream and they expect you to notice that suddenly there's a pink crystal in a corner somewhere which you need. Instead of telling you you need another crystal the game says something about "charging your staff".
Don't waste your time on this subpar game, get a HOG that's actually been developed by Artifex Mundi itself rather than some second-rate studio.
