Legend of the Skyfish

I was drawn in by the nice, clean visuals and promises of puzzles to solve. Sadly, the latter goes unfulfilled. I am a big fan of games like Ittle Dew, Escape Goat and Mystery Castle, and hoped this would scratch the same itch. But what is here doesn't really even qualify as puzzles. It's not a puzzle if there's a switch on the ground, and a short, unobstructed distance away there's a statue you can push around. That is a tutorial-level introduction to the game's mechanics at best and busywork at worst. Unfortunately, that's more or less the level of puzzle challenges for the whole duration of the game. Which is about three hours. There were only one or two instances where I had to give any real thought to what I was doing, and even then similar cases are only entry-level puzzles in other games. On the other side of the coin the game tries to be an action-adventure game in the vein something like Legend of Zelda, but it's unsatisfactory there as well. The combat is simple and the ene...

Just barely worth the asking price. Repetitious/dragged out as hell with no real puzzle variation. Finished the game, but the game is filled with a lot of fat. Time spent walking around winding paths even though there's nothing significant to do aside from follow a spiral path when it could have been straight. A lot of places that a precise cast of your rod can bypass parts if you have the right hook, but I took those as a blessing. Meanwhile, aiming while on one of the moving platforms or aiming for a moving platform is a complete mess.

If you're like me and was hoping this would be a good Zelda-like experience, then you should probably not waste your money on this game. It is an ok game, but not great.

its a bit short, lacking in storyboard, and the puzzles are a bit too easy even if youve never played puzzle games before, it wont be hard to figure out which is a good thing, i mean, it is nice to be able to pick up a game and via trial and error get the hang of it rather quick but cause its so short and the difficulty curve goes up real slightly the ease, is also a detriment how ever, its only 8$ (usd) at this time, so pricewise, i believe its a good deal that could easily become a great deal if the devs add to the game even if it includes another charge edit 7/7/17 after time has passed, and beating the game ive decided to change my reccomendation its still a decent game, but for the price it either should have had better "puzzle" design (not make you circle around just for fun) or more story elements, basically its only the opening and end sequence that have any storyline i dont feel like i got ripped off or anything, but content wise, this should have been 5$ and i believe if...

Great little game; about 3-5 hours of gameplay depending on how quickly your brain works 3 stages each with 15 levels. The game introduces some great game mechanics, and this is the reason for the recommendation, the story is not outstanding and the challenge level is low, but for a young person in your life in my opinion worth while. Use the fishing pole to attack enemies or as a hook to move objects or yourself, on top of logic puzzles you have reaction puzzles and enemies to fight. Video: https://youtu.be/l7TSZxvVbIU

COMPLETE GARBAGE UTTER WASTE OF MONEY DO NOT BUY

This is a casual puzzler that I would rather get on mobile than Steam. It's a good port, a fun time sink and pretty polished, but it's just not what I am looking for in a PC Puzzler experience. It's totally worth the money if what you are looking for is a casual puzzler.

I think PC is really better for this game than touchscreen. Story wise, you play as a girl who gets separated from her little brother when the Skyfish declares war on humanity. You are accompanied by the Moon Whale and a small fairy like fish as you make your way to battle the Skyfish and rescue your little brother. Mechanic wise, I would add “Puzzle” to the genre listing for this game. The gameplay is a mixture of adventure and light puzzle solving to get through each level without dying. [u]What I like about this game[/u] [list] [*]The puzzle element is challenging enough to get you thinking while not getting frustrating. All of the gameplay elements and obstacles are clearly identifiable and displayed. The game isn’t trying to trick you as much as it's trying to teach you about its obstacles and make you think a little ...
