Reviews for I was on the Throne

Beautiful-looking game and well-designed to boot. Very, very stylish.

I enjoyed the fact that my hand was not held and I had to inuit the solutions of puzzles with no clues or intrusive mini-tutorials. Navigation was similarly intuitive.

You clearly knew what you were after and didn't bog down the experience with a crappy story or dialogue no one could care about. I mean, there IS a linear story here but largely it doesn't matter. And I like that. I don't need another point and click game that tries to be artsy and deep and fails in execution.

My only complaint is that it didn't feel very... fun. Not that it wasn't. Just for some reason, it didn't click? Some puzzle-based games give you this gratifying feeling of aha! Others don't.

Not to say there aren't great games that fail in that regard. Ghost Trick was great but you didn't get that sense of triumph from completing the (clever) puzzles.

Anyway. This was a very well-thought out experience and I'm glad I soldiered through my nausea to finish it. Well done.

Good stuff. I kinda accidentally guessed 2 of the puzzles though (too quickly, before getting to think about it). The audio was perfect though.

Aside from the pleasant art style and fun puzzles, this game has the best sound design I've experienced in a while. The amazing feedback made me really feel like my actions have a real impact on the game.

Yeah yeah. great game and all, but what's the purpose? What´s the story? why so surreal?

Good music, good game, but i did not understand a crap of what was going on.

Can´t give you more than 3.5 stars. But still,keep it up!
