Great concept, very well executed, just one thing...
Fri Jun 28 2019 PoGoSabiThis game is stylishly designed, engrossing, and based around a very cool concept. I had a lot of fun playing it, and just when I felt it was just getting started, and I was comfortably in the rhythm of the games mechanics, then it was over!
I really do feel like this has potential to go many more places, and I would gladly stick around for the ride!
I hate giving only 4 stars, but they are definitely to cover the experience, just couldn’t justify the 5th with it being so short-lived.
That said, thank you devs for running with such an interesting take on the inner workings of the human body, I am going to be analyzing everything I do from now on wondering what the little people keeping me functional are up to.! 😊
Wonderfully whimsical but incredibly brief experience
Mon Jan 13 2020 fat finger juFirst of all, the dialogue, ,artwork, and sound is fantastic. That being said I felt that the game lacked a certain substance. First of all, the storytelling and gameplay is very railroady, or to put it into other words there is very little freedom in the game. The gameplay constrains the player to follow thru with a singular solution. Now this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. However the puzzles are not challenging enough for this and paired with the extreme brevity of the game, (I finished the game in half an hour), it ends up feeling like so much has been missed.
I’d rather pay more money for something more substantive than pay any money for gameplay this brief and constraining.
Not saying this game doesn’t deserve money, as it obviously took a good amount of work to create. But maybe for your next project if you can create something that solves the story and gameplay issues raised (railroady and short) while maintaining the charming quality of the art you guys may have a winner.
Leaves out some important parts of the human body
Sun Jul 01 2018 ++johnny++I love this game, but it leaves out a lot of organs in the abdominal region, like the stomach, intestines, liver, and kidneys. Sure, they’re included in the nerve center , but we didn’t get to see how it works. The only part of the digestive system that this game has viewed up close is in the mouth, Another thing is when the body parts are reporting to the brain, I noticed that the heart sides are the wrong colors. The right side, which usually pumps deoxygenated blood, represented as blue, is bright red, but the left side, that usually handles bright red oxygenated blood, is colored a dark purple color. I would like to have an update that gives the GI tract a chance to shine. Thank you for reading, and I still love this game.
Fun and exciting
Sun May 20 2018 The Unstoppable Music MajorChildren of today will likely not remember Schoolhouse Rock classics the way I do. When I learned that Bob Dorough passed away, I immediately thought of the segments of Science Rock that explains the human body by imagining it with analogues in the real world. Now the same concept is taken to the next level, with interactivity, portability, translatability, and wider marketability, given how it was sponsored by both French and German organizations. I hesitate to give it five stars because I’ve reached only the end of the first chapter, but I am impressed with the puzzles involved and the well-paced story arc of the daily process of waking up and smelling the coffee.
UPDATE
Sat May 19 2018 CreeperzRuleI’ve only been playing this game for a couple of minutes and I love it. But I’m on the nerve system and when I get to the part when the day is done and you have to select the right square to move, I usually fail at that and when I go to fix the button, I CAN’T! I can still hear the ticking and I can’t do anything! So I then have to exit out of the app and go back into it and then have to restart! Please fix this bug in the next update!
Update:
Nothing was wrong in the end, I just wasn’t going something right
The great start to a game
Fri Jul 27 2018 ontologistIt took me a few minutes to get into the ‘don’t tell them how to play, just let them tap around until they figure it out’ style of gameplay, but I was able to live with it. Then, the game ended! I was certain the the ending credits were the OPENING credits... I thought “wow okay there is going to be hours and hours of exploring strange interpretations of the human body, oh boy!” But then the game ended and too me back to the intro screen... so in fact it was the opposite: a small teaser that could be a great game if they made a game out of it!
This should be the free trial app. Then we pay $2.99 for unlocking the ‘real’ content...
An interactive art/story experience
Mon Apr 06 2020 DeerologistSuch a beautiful game Art Deco style. Really fun and the animations on the little workers are amazing although they’re made of such minimal blots of colors. I love the music and the quirky storyline. The time-stamped social hierarchies made into a body corporation was a bit of a cliché, but that didn’t really bother me. I was in for the experience and was amazed at all the visuals and executions of the puzzles. I would dig more works by these creators. I love interactive storytelling apps, and I feel like this fits into that category. 5 stars for me!
The good the great and the …
Wed Jul 04 2018 LeafLAmazing game, really wish Fritz Kahn could've taught my bio class. Really wish there was more to the game, in my opinion it was kind of short. Also one thing i would like to see is like a free play option, in which you can tap on a part of the body, and play with it without having to go through the story again. Also wish that eventually more chapters get added.
Oh one graphical glich i saw was the dialogue with the ear drum, the text bubble kinda weaves through the outline of the woman speaking.
