    O mundo de Aspire é misterioso e vivo. Um jogo onde a arte de um mundo deslumbrante faz parte da gameplay junto aos puzzles. Vejo muito carinho e amor postos nesse jogo, foi muito satisfatório jogar e a cada novo cenário que encontrava, ou sons que eu escutava, eu sentia meu coração quentinho pelo amor facilmente evidente na produção do jogo.

Vejo muito carinho e amor postos nesse jogo, foi muito satisfatório jogar e a cada novo cenário que encontrava, ou sons que eu escutava, eu sentia meu coração quentinho pelo amor facilmente evidente na produção do jogo. É um jogo calmo muito bom pra se jogar e curtir, só não recebe minha nota maximo pois queria que durasse mais. Muito obrigado por essa maravilha ♥… Expand

    The game looks great, having a seemingly perfect choices in coloring and lightning. The music is void from being annoying and is so constant it sinks into your mind without you realizing it’s still in the background. Puzzles are casual but at the same time thought-provoking, giving you a sense of accomplishment when you finally figure out you were just overthinking things. I really liked the way the game handled jumping, but not so much with turning and putting in/taking out the shapes for the puzzles. They make you pause for a second and wonder what you’re doing wrong, which takes away from the otherwise great flow. You don’t have to worry about sinking hours into this title, as it’s short and allows those who don’t have much time to finish it in an evening. For those that have more time, it might have been nice to have another section of puzzles thrown in. A lot of the ending is the same chase sequence with what could be considered a boss, but there are little breaks between that allow you to go back to doing some puzzles. I really enjoyed my playthrough and even going back to do some of the areas over again to finish up on my achievements was quite welcoming.

    With such potential on show, it was disappointing that Aspire: Ina’s Tale didn’t go far enough. I desperately wanted to see it evolving, but this was never to be. The developers played it safe, and this was at the detriment of the end product. Though it could have been spectacular, it was still great, albeit very familiar.

    Well attached to its inspirations and classic patterns in terms of narration and game design, Aspire: Ina's Tale offers above all a very beautiful show. The game draws its uniqueness from an absolutely masterful soundtrack and attractive architectures. On the other hand, it sins in its duration, its short story and some levels that are not always well thought out.
