The Little Acre: Video Overview Games

As you know, create a bright, memorable image – at least half of success in a storyline or in the film. In a wonderful quest The Little ACRE, which produced the creator of the series The Broken Sword Charles Cesil (Charles Cecil), there are definite problems with this: everyone who saw him will not remember the girl-catastrophe Lily, something like a heroine cartoon “Masha and the Bear”.Visual style Here is worthy of the full-length cartoon.

Lily forever

Energy beats from lily the key, scattering in different directions of others. What to say if her native father Eydan is afraid to get out of bed and wake a daughter? So he is worn every possible way and comes up with tricky ways, including using the right PSA, muggle to get dressed quietly and slip out of the bedroom.

And it is necessary to get out, because the father of Eidana disappeared somewhere. He was a scientist and engaged in strange experiments, which is why there are many strange devices in the house and in the adjacent territory. Soon, Eidan and at all discovers the portal in his shed into another world and disappears too.

Lily dies in confusion and loneliness for a short time – by collecting the remains of oatmeal from the ceiling (the result of extreme cooking), it charges with energy and with his enthusiasm perturbed to the portal to find and save relatives.

But he will first have to cut down with a wooden sword with a Garden Glome’s head (he follows me!), launch yourself from a big improvised slingshot and get rid of the attention of the annoying dug. This deeply lazy dog in the blink of an eye may grab Lily over the collar and pull off from acute items and other hazards by performing the role of a snancie.

Through laughter and tears

In another dimension, Lily and Eidan decrease in size and turn into ridiculous little men, but in fact it is not at all laughing – that and the case is found carnivorous flowers, huge caterpillars, some crocodiles, frills and suspicious characters with horns and hooves.Wooden sword here will definitely do not help!
If the Aidan interacts with them a classic manner (somewhere communicates, somewhere falls and afraid), then Lily even the oscillator flora and fauna subordinate to their irrepressive energy and charisma. As a result, a big caterpillar turns into a manual dog, a sort of replacement of Dougal, Cocodiles-Cachelot, beaten by a wooden sword, transported Lily from one shore to another, and carnivorous flowers begin to play the role of peculiar teleports, in horror, stretching our girl.

Enough funny situations and in cases where we play for Eidan, but The Little ACRE – this is not a carefree comedy. Often here, on the contrary, more tragedy and drama. Protecting relatives, Lily will have to defeat several dangerous opponents. But everyone will not be able to save, and the victory over the main villain leaves a feeling of easy sadness – in his own way it is sorry for him too ..

Lily was here

Let the word “defeat” you do not confuse. The Little ACRE – This is a classic Point’n’Click Quest, and you will have to win with the help of mixtalk, logic, as well as active points and items from inventory. Riddles mostly precisely subject. They are quite logical, although sometimes not without a raisin – you can not immediately guess that it is possible to build a hammer.

In addition, it is often necessary to send animals in one or another point so that they helped Lily climb somewhere, opened the door or did something more useful. There are also puzzles when, for example, it is necessary to set the correct combination of light bulbs on the dashboard, but there are always more than sensible tips to them.

The action is constantly switched between the father and daughter, and, although the gameplay does not change from this, such a simple reception will notice the story and maintains the pace of narration.And Lily, and her dad has an inventory in which not only objects are stored, but also notes with tips.***
It is a pity that the story is too short and even a constant echoing from one hero to another does not particularly extend it. There is a game of literally in a couple of hours that you just do not notice and after which you will require additives, feeling easy disappointment. It seems that we have only the beginning of something more, the first part in the series of incredible adventures of Lily and her dad in the wonderful and dangerous world. I hope that Charles Cesil will show himself not only a cool screenwriter and game designer, but also a truly competent executive producer.
