Video Game Reviews of Keepsake
Customer Review: not bad
Summary: 5 Stars
This was very good. My daughter and I both enjoyed this. We had to think about some of the puzzles. It took us several hours a day to play this. I would recommend this to everyone.Customer Review: Terrible animation, impossible navigation
Summary: 1 Stars
This game got great reviews for its hint system, and it's true that it's good that the hints are there. But as you navigate around your point of view changes all over the place -- sometimes you're seeing the side of your character, sometimes you're looking down from the ceiling, sometimes you're behind her. It makes it almost impossible to figure out how to get to a specific spot. This means that the hint "you have to go to the basement" is useless.
On top of that, the animation is pathetic. It's klunky and jerky and about equivalent to taking paper cutouts of the characters and moving them around the screen.
Do not waste your money on this.
Customer Review: If only the characters were mimes...
Summary: 3 Stars
As others have mentioned in their reviews, the music, sound effects, and graphics were excellent. Unfortunately, the dialog and voice "acting" were terrible. The game play was extremely linear although you could travel to most places at any time. This combination often resulted in puzzles you could not solve and spending huge amounts of time going back to areas you have already been. Although the graphics were well done, you often had to travel though 6 or more scenes just to get from one place to another.
The logic puzzles were well done, but the riddle-type puzzles were so obscure that they made no sense, even with the hints! The same is true for the order in which you had to solve puzzles. Without the buit in hint system, you would have no idea what needed to be done next, especially in the towers.
Finally, the plot and character development were just awful. Within the first 2 hours you knew all the characters, their background and even new how the game would finally end. All conversations past this point are repetitive and add nothing but extending the time it takes to play the game.
By the time we were half way though the game, we just wanted it to be over.
Customer Review: Keepsake was disappointing
Summary: 1 Stars
I had great hopes when I began this game. It was advertised as an adventure game with puzzles to solve. Not only were the puzzles so obscure, but it was impossible to determine a sequence of events with which to proceed. I found myself going to the internet for hint after hint. Another detriment to the game was the endless transporting from one area to another. To solve a puzzle, you would have to go through three or four transports only to be forced to go to another area involving a lot of movement. Truthfully, I got to the point where I only wanted to game to end.
I have to say this was a totally unsatisfying game experience and would not recommend it to anyone.
Customer Review: Keepsake - a little bit frustration
Summary: 4 Stars
I had problems to run the game at my computer at first, but with some help from my son I was able to play it. The grafic is excelent and story good, but there is too much running from place to place with no easy way to get there. There is no logic on where to go next so I had to use the help button a lot.
I would have liked to be able to touch and pick up more items and use them my self. In this game the game chooses what to use. The companian(wolf-cat) was fun to have with me to talk to and it also gave a lot of clues. The logic of some of the puzzles was a bit difficult to understand. But overall I enjoyed the game and it lasted for a long time with all the "running around"
