Most puzzles are also simplified and some are removed alltogether. I understand that this is an improvement to the original because of the blurry visuals resulting in and endless pixel hunt, but it also simplifies the game too much. Other changes are that now puzzles, objects and pathways are marked with cymbols which makes them easier to find. In this new version the objects gets placed in your inventory automaticly when you pick them up like in Return to Mysterious Island. The improvements are the inventory, as before you had to pick and object up and place it in the inventory yourself, which was kind of annoying. There are changes from the original, some are improvements and some has made the game worse. I didn't expect the game to be much updated in graphics or gameplay, given how old the game was.
SUBMARINE GAMES FOR IPAD WINDOWS
Then I discovered that Bigfish was selling a new version of the game, which I thought was pretty cool because this meant the game would work on Windows 7. The game would not run on Windows 7, which i found reasonable and it didn't much matter as I had played through the game many times. I was one of the few lucky people getting the game to work on windows 98 and windows XP. The storyline isn't the greatest and some puzzles just didn't feel logical.Īll in all it was a nice experience for me and I replayed the game many times. It had a nice mysterious atmosphere and music. I did, however, like it when I played it for the first time. The game did not get well received back then either. I listened to a computer talking to me as if I were the captain and saw a holagraphic video from Nemo? Maybe if this was a combat game and I was shooting the enemy this game would work but not so much for an adventure game.Ī very poor re-release I played the original version of this game, the one from 2002. In the short time I played the only items for me to pick up was a zinc ball and a candle holder, and the only tasks I had were to open a door and fix a fan. There is no hint system that I could find however, there is an arrow that tells you which direction you can go but it can be very confusing because there are several doors to go in and because of the limited view you will end up going back to the same place.
Once you are in the sub you must use the cursor to look around 360* to make it as if you are the one actually looking around, up, down, left, right. You come across a sub larger than the one you are on and the professor disobeys orders and leaves to board the Nautils and explore.
STILL A SECRET TO ME! I could only play for about 15-20 minutes as well but only because there isn't enough to do and I was completly bored! You are a professor onboard a submarine studying marine archaeology. I'm going to give it a "yes" recommendation with the qualifier that most likely only fans of the original game will enjoy it. The original did not have any kind of hint system as it was a true classic adventure game.īig Fish should include information making it clear this is a remake of a 13 year-old adventure game, so people are not disappointed when they try it out or purchase it. Since there are apparent deviations from the original game, a walkthrough would be a great help. I'm not finding the items I need to progress in the game which are supposed to be there. I also don't care for the arrows which make the game too simplistic. It's been quite a few years since I've played the original Nautilus because it doesn't play on new operating systems, but I don't particularly like the 360° panning either. That said, I'm not feeling a lot of love for this remake. Perhaps Big Fish should add something to explain this so people don't expect a typical new casual game. If the previous reviewers were expecting a typical HOG or casual game, this is not it. It was a point and click adventure game that was not particularly easy. The graphics are true to the original game. Previous Reviewers Haven't Played the Original Game This is a casual game remake of the original "The Mystery of the Nautilus" from 2002.
