    I would love to see a still-family-friendly but more in-depth Zorro game inspired by the Disney series starring Guy Williams. That was a great show with lots of character and mood that I think would translate well to a video game.

    So it's basically "baby's first Assassin's Creed," just without the open world. That's actually a pretty good idea. Those types of games can be intimidating to more casual players. And it seems like the dev did put more work into it than you'd expect from a cartoon tie-in game.

    I've always got the gist of Zorro but have been getting into the character cause of the Django Zorro comics and now I really want a more grown up Zorro game for modern systems. This looks like a good bit of fun though for sure!

    I'm more of a Guy Williams kind of guy, but I will not miss the opportunity to play Zorro.
    I think the Arkham style of game (PG action or not) is perfect for this character.

      @A Spirit From what I've seen of gameplay, there's a range limit on the drop kills and you can hit the button and have the character drop down instead of poucing on them if they're too far away. Could be wrong though, haven't had any hands-on time with it yet, but it seems the range to get the prompt might be longer than the range you can actually do an aerial takedown from?

    This was a really helpful review! I'm shopping for games to make a to-buy-list for my public library and this looks like a fun younger-player friendly action vigilante game. it's interesting to already see a lower budget but totally fun take off on the mechanics of Spider-Man from Insomniac, and Zorro (taking some liberties with whip physics) looks like a character that plays the part really well. I think I'm going to put it on our list as a budget option if we don't want to get Miles Morales.

  • @FlowerAngelRave
    @FlowerAngelRave 2 года назад +2

    It seems that there are some decent things about this title, but that it's let down more than not by its drawbacks. I think it's got an okay start though and that the devs have got some ground to work with in their next project, or for when some patches come in. But I agree with your thought in that it might be a good way to introduce a younger person to games, and as always, I appreciate the review.

    The game has fairly decent enough graphics and gameplay mechanics to convince me that I'm playing an actual Zorro game.
    As a lifelong fan of Zorro, I bothered to buy this game to quench my thirst for Zorro video-games, which we haven't been a lot in the past years, and the ones we got aren't really good.

    3:30 this is much like in boardgames or other videogames. throwing the stone is simply a typical distraction element.
    justifying it lorewise i would say she/he is picking up the stone from the ground somewhere or in other games like hitman or the last of us u can even find the stuff and carry it around to distract people. so i wouldnt assume the character has infinite or lets say 20 stones carrying around. they just take it and throw it simple mechanic.

    Is this game good for 5 years olds?

    • @IDreamofIndie
      @IDreamofIndie  2 года назад +1

      Hello! It would depend on the 5 year old, I suppose! If they are familiar with using a controller and not too easily frustrated by game controls in general, it’s not a particularly challenging or graphic game, but I’d say it may be best for a bit older just because of the coordination involved.

      Hmmm well I’d say that is a very different gaming experience so it’s a bit hard to compare. This is not quite as over the top, but if he’s shown interest in Zorro or watched the animated series, perhaps it’s worth a shot

      When I was a child (which was a *LOOONG* time ago), I got annoyed by games which were actively bad to play (sounds like this isn't that far) or which didn't stick to the theme they were based around (which doesn't sound like this game at all). Being just not a very good game was fine, and repetitive gameplay - as long as it's at least half-decent and feels thematically appropriate - or simple graphics were much less of an issue. From what I can see, this is maybe a questionable PC port of the game, but the game itself sounds like something I'd have enjoyed as a kid. And maybe if they improve it a little on the "works consistently on PC" side of things (plus maybe control remapping and graphics options), that could help too.
