Panmorphia LITE 4+

Disappointing - update January 2019

I really wanted to like this game. It has great potential but was not designed well. Clues are poor or not present at all, required actions are very often counterintuitive and illogical, and items to find are frequently invisible. Navigation is different in practically every scene.... some have a back button, some have an X button, some need tapping at the bottom of the screen, some at the side.... it's very confusing. You can play in easy mode which will help you find things, but then the challenge is compromised. There's a hint system but it gives you answers, not hints. Still, you need it because at so many places the next step is so obscure and you're left clueless... literally. Two stars for beautiful graphics, a very good concept and pretty music. But minus three for the awkward, incomprehensible, and inelegant gameplay. I bought the whole game but it was a disappointment. It could have been good with some more expert design.

UPDATE: Much of the awkward gameplay has been updated and the game flows more easily now. Navigation is easier to understand. I replayed and it all went much better. The game has some beautiful aspects. It's a lovely world to spend some time in.

Good, but could be much better

Fun game, but without the clue in the game, a number of things were too odd of solutions to be figured out on ones own wit. Puzzles should make sense to some degree, not have some arbitrary solution. Good enough for the kids, but yes, pretty short, took about 2 hours.

Arrows toggle in menu didn't work

I first got Panmorphia for a flight some years ago. I liked the lite version so much that I bought the IAP for the full version.

I'm playing it again now because it's really well done adventure in a mystical otherly world.

However, a hang up:

When adding the arrows in a recent update, the toggle to turn them off in the menus doesn't work. Maybe I never saw them before? But I've tried the toggle and it's not working.

I'll try playing it with arrows but I really liked enjoying as much of the screen as possible and don't really need them to get places.

Also, just noticed, there's an arrow missing at a certain feline gate. Left and right arrows show up but not forward arrow to let you know that you can go back through.

The arrow movement is a bit frustrating, I've been playing with it for about half an hour now and it's a lot more restricting than the prior movement.

I'm a bit worried the dev won't see this because I rate the game highly and/or because it's on the LITE version.

Réponse du développeur ,

New update adds the ability to turn them off! :)
