Meridian 157: Prologue 9+

Amazing!!!

I have played hundreds of games and never left a review, but this game was so good! I played games like this when I was younger (in the days before iPads & iPhones!!) with my dad and this took me back to those days! The graphics are spectacular! It’s quite a retro game but in a modern way. I have just played all 4 episodes in the space of 2 days as I couldn’t put the games down! I really hope you are building more of the same - thank you for letting me re-live precious memories with my late dad, he would have love, Love, LOVED these games!! ❤️❤️

Promising! More please...

I enjoyed the game and the puzzles - not too hard and not too easy either. Although the flag and the gears was a bit confusing. I got the gears more by accident than design! World was a bit murky in places and I missed some objects because it was hard to see, despite turning up the brightness. Could maybe do with sharpening up the graphics? Which were realistically good, btw. I’d like more areas to explore, more puzzles, more story, more everything really! Hope they’ll be another instalment soon as it is intriguing and the overall atmosphere is spookily mysterious. I don’t mind paying for a more involved game. It certainly has potential to be up there with the good games of this genre.
Update: Glad to hear back from the devs that they have taken our issues into consideration and are working on a more in depth game for the Autumn! I look forward to it thanks!😀👍

Developer Response ,

Hello TheSeeker79, thank you for your review! We have heard from a lot of people that the flag puzzle was a bit obscure, and we are improving the hint system. We are also in the process of introducing a brightness function that should help clear things up hopefully. The next game planned for fall 2019 is going to be much longer with much more exploration! We are very glad you enjoyed the game!

Unfinished rather than unpolished

The game looks great, and appears to operate well in the familiar tradition that begin with Myst, but it’s so seriously flawed it’s currently unplayable on both my iPad and iPhone. First the ‘levers and flag puzzle’ which others have commented on. This is one of the most poorly conceived and designed illogical puzzles I’ve ever encountered. It doesn’t need a better clue system it needs to be a better puzzle. Even when you know the answer it just makes no sense and even the Unwrapper walkthrough brute forces it. Then the bugs - the glass on the three numbers puzzle doesn’t change colour on my iPad version so that’s it. An uncompletable puzzle and an uncompletable game. And so switching to my iPhone the yellow ‘C’ shape on the last puzzle only moves up and down not from left to right. So when it comes to resorting to a walkthrough and then even the walkthrough doesn’t work it’s time to give up. I’ll play the game when it’s finished as I did like it in some ways.
