EN: The House in Fata Morgana was my introduction to the medium of visual novels and I immediately feel like I've already read the best of the genre without experiencing the rest.

"No one knows who first said
...that the mansion was cursed."

It is a Visual Novel in which there is a mansion which is cursed, in which a servant girl guides you so that you, the master, can remember who you are, she presents you with stories of former members of the mansion in the form of memories and each one presents different themes, between tragedy, human nature and madness. These give way to a great mystery and the search for the answer to the curse that affects the mansion.

A masterpiece that highlights in every section the talent behind the game, showing an incredibly well written story, with the presence of extremely human characters, with a soundtrack that subtly tells its own story, as a set of things that create the atmosphere of the cursed mansion, it is a terribly depressing work, so much so that it tears the soul but at the same time through all the tragedy continues to light a hopeful fire and that immerses you in this love story.

It seeks to explore in depth the search for identity, the importance of communication and mutual understanding, how our surroundings shape us and build our being and how even small moments of human connection and warmth create a lasting effect on the people around us. it teaches us to accept reality and facing it can be as painful as reality itself. no matter how dark it gets, there is always some light at the end of the tunnel.

There are no words that can describe everything I felt through the characters, they are so human you can feel their own pain. everything maintains a level of believable realism that of what makes the narrative so heartbreaking. everything you are presented with has a purpose, putting the big puzzle together, seeing how it all came together as I went along was one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever experienced in a game.

It's not a perfect VN by any means, it's pretty unevenly paced, but I forged a greater emotional connection to this story than almost any other I've ever experienced in my life.

It is beautiful, breathtaking, heartbreakingly tragic, unflinching and brutal, and one of the best love stories ever told. It will take you on a journey of strong emotions in every way. Nothing so much passion and heart was put into could leave anyone without having gained something valuable from reading it. I am so glad I read it, because it is an experience I will never forget and it will stay in my heart.



ES: The House in Fata Morgana fue mi introducción al medio de las novelas visuales e inmediatamente siento que ya he leído lo mejor del género sin experimentar el resto.

"Nadie sabe quién dijo por primera vez
...que la mansión estaba maldita".

Es una Visual Novel en la que existe una mansión la cual está maldita, en la que una sirvienta te guía para tú, el amo, puedas recordar quien eres, te presenta historias de antiguos miembros de la mansión en forma de recuerdos y cada una presenta distintos temas, entre la tragedia, naturaleza humana y la locura. Que dan paso a un gran misterio y a la búsqueda de la respuesta a la maldición que afecta a la mansión.

Una obra maestra que destaca en todo apartado el talento detrás del juego, mostrando una historia increíblemente bien escrita, con presencia de personajes sumamente humanos, con una banda sonora que cuenta sutilmente su propia historia, en conjunto de cosas que crean la atmósfera de la mansión maldita, es una obra terriblemente deprimente, tanto que desgarra el alma, pero al mismo tiempo a través de toda la tragedia sigue encendiendo un fuego esperanzador y que te sumerge en esta historia de amor.

Busca explorar en profundidad la búsqueda de identidad, la importancia de la comunicación y del entendimiento mutuo, como el alrededor nos da forma y construye nuestro ser y cómo incluso los pequeños momentos de conexión y calidez humana crean un efecto duradero en las personas que nos rodean. Nos enseña aceptar la realidad y enfrentarse a ella puede ser tan doloroso como la propia realidad. No importa lo oscura que se ponga, siempre hay algo de luz al final del túnel.

No hay palabras que puedan describir todo lo sentí a través de los personajes, son tan humanos que puedes sentir su propio dolor. Todo mantiene un nivel de realismo creíble que de lo que hace que la narración sea tan desgarradora. Todo lo que te presentan tiene un propósito, armar el gran rompecabezas, ver cómo todo iba encajando a medida que avanzaba fue una experiencia de las experiencias más gratificantes que he experimentado en un juego.

No es una VN perfecta ni mucho menos, tiene un ritmo bastante irregular, pero he forjado una mayor conexión emocional con esta historia que con casi cualquier otra que haya experimentado en mi vida.

Es hermosa, sobrecogedora, desgarradoramente trágica, inquebrantable y brutal, y una de las mejores historias de amor contadas. Te llevará a un viaje de fuertes emociones en todos sentidos. Nada en lo que se haya puesto tanta pasión y corazón podría dejar a alguien sin haber ganado algo valioso al leerlo. Me alegro mucho de haberlo leído, porque es una experiencia que nunca olvidaré y se quedará en mi corazón.

No puedo con tanto encanto (Soul para mis compas)...

No sabría decir si es mi Mario favorito, pero sin duda es el mejor Mario 2D, es muy creativo, se siente demasiada la libertad y cada nivel es muy único, los niveles secretos son muy hard, tiene demasiados niveles, muchos ocultos. Si tuviera que quejarme de algo sería un nitpick mío que en el mundo de los Slimes usas la misma habilidad 3 veces seguidas, cuando todo el juego varía bastante el Wonder.

Algo realmente negativo que tiene es la cámara en el multijugador, el mejor jugador que se define por quien queda más alto en la meta, es muy malo, afecta al resto que no tiene preferencia y es fácil equivocarse, por ello, en los New alejaban la cámara, es mejor solución, incluso el Sonic Superstar hace ello, ojalá lo cambiaran. Igualmente, es un 10/10 y lo recomiendo de todo corazón.

If you are interested in this remaster or you are already playing it, I highly recommend these mods:

SNES Sprites
Old Backgrounds
Pixel Font (Video Tutorial)
Total Madness
FFVI UI Overhaul
Old Menu Portraits
Overworld Mobile Tiles
Pixel Art Button Prompts
SNES Battle Numbers

Will give you the real Final Fantasy VI experience, all mods are from Nexus Mods.

I was the one who added it to the database.
The best mod I've ever played, amazing how it improves the already very solid combat of the best ARPG I've ever played (Kingdom Hearts II), although it can get even better.

I love the combat, it's Kingdom Hearts II with x2 speed with a lot of Devil May Cry inspiration, allowing a higher combo bar.

What I liked most about the original was how magic was used compared to others in the franchise, in this mod it's much improved, giving the ability to alternate magic between using it on the ground, in the air and as a finisher.

The Drive Forms are very fun although it lacks a greater amount, there are only 3 in the Alpha, which I understand for being an Alpha that allows you to play the game from start to finish that even plan to add much more extra content.

This mod is not saved from negative things, but being an Alpha can be solved in the future, for example it is very easy even if you play it in Critical Mode, if you play in level 1 you will not have an experience as good as KH2 OG, because here the amount of enemies increases a lot, it is a mod more planned to be played with level up.

The only bosses that are difficult are Larxene and Zexion, Zexion is really horrible in this mod, he has a lot of HP and you can't avoid being trapped by the book like in the original, even if you continue a combo he will escape.

Also the lack of Limit Summons, you only have 3 forms available in the Alpha and a Limit which is a healing with Vergil's spinning swords, I hope they increase it in the future.

And finally you are not a lion, you go very slow in that world and boss fights are cut because of it (they have 1HP), I hope they change or directly remove it from the game.

I had a lot of fun with this mod, I totally recommend it, especially if you want to explore KH2 again.

EN: When I heard that this game was being created by Ubisoft Montpellier I couldn't wait for this game, who have created gems like Rayman Origins, Legends and Beyond Good and Evil.

I had high expectations and they totally exceeded them, it's amazing how they took advantage of a dead franchise to modernize it and create new things in it. You can see the passion behind this game, taking the best of modern metroidvania (Metroid Dread, Hollow Knight and Ori).

The combat is pretty good for what you would expect in this genre, with several combo options, it doesn't get tiring thanks to the fact that as you advance more powerful enemies come out in old areas. I would have liked another type of sword to make more combos.

The bosses are the best part of the game, they take everything you've learned from combat and test your reaction, the parry is extremely satisfying and an important part of your defense against them.
Excellent exploration, all areas connect and good progression system, note that the map is gigantic, even bigger than Hollow Knight apparently.

They also innovate in the genre by adding a mechanic to take a screenshot and have it marked on your map, it's a game that asks you to explore by yourself, no indicators of where exactly you should go and have a self-made map of the things you are missing to get.

The movement is so satisfying, running, sliding, jumping and the fluid animations add to that feeling, it reminds me a lot of Metroid Dread (I wish for a sequel that adds something similar to Metroid's Shinespark, the movement would be perfect with that addition and more satisfying).

Good skill set, my problem is with the ability that you can carry bombs with you, it's tiring to have to fetch bombs in certain areas to go back to a golden door and destroy it to get in.

Another thing I didn't like is that although there are a lot of amulets, many of them are directly useless, something that doesn't happen with games like Hollow Knight, where most of them are useful.

Although you can tell that Ubisoft wants to give another face with this game, you can tell they are still part of Bugisoft, it is frustrating the amount of bugs, I just beat a major boss being invisible and basically immortal, the dialogues are repeated, the golden doors don't open when you throw bombs at them, etc. I hope they fix those bugs, they ruin the experience a bit.

I also suffered from several crashes, especially for running out of internet and putting my PC or Steam Deck in sleep mode, it's unforgivable that they ask you for internet for a singleplayer game, it's really annoying to lose progress because of that.



ES: Cuando escuche que este juego estaba siendo creado por Ubisoft Montpellier no podía esperar por este juego, quienes han creado joyas como Rayman Origins, Legends y Beyond Good and Evil.

Tenía grandes expectativas y las superaron totalmente, es increíble como aprovecharon una franquicia muerta para modernizarla y crear cosas nuevas en ella. Se nota la pasión que hay detrás de este juego, cogiendo lo mejor de los metroidvania modernos (Metroid Dread, Hollow Knight y Ori)

El combate bastante bueno para lo que cabría esperar en este género, con varias opciones de combo, no llega a cansar gracias a que a medida que avanzas salen enemigos más poderosos en zonas antiguas. Me hubiera gustado otro tipo de espada para hacer más combos.

Los bosses son la mejor parte del juego, toman todo lo que has aprendido del combate y te ponen a prueba de tu reacción, el parry es extremadamente satisfactorio y una parte importante de tu defensa contra ellos.
Excelente exploración, todas las áreas se conectan y buen sistema de progresión, nótese que el mapa es gigantesco, incluso más grande que Hollow Knight aparentemente.
También innovan en el género añadiendo una mecánica para hacer captura de pantalla y tenerla marcada en tu mapa, es un juego que te pide que explores por ti mismo, sin indicadores de donde exactamente debes ir y tener un mapa hecho por ti mismo de las cosas que te faltan por conseguir.

El movimiento es tan satisfactorio, correr, deslizarse, saltar y las animaciones fluidas añaden a esa sensación, me recuerda mucho a Metroid Dread (deseo una secuela que añada algo similar al Shinespark de Metroid, el movimiento sería perfecto con ese añadido y más satisfactorio).

Buen conjunto de habilidades, mi problema es con la habilidad de que puedas llevar bombas contigo, es cansino tener que ir a buscar bombas en ciertas zonas para volver a una puerta dorada y destruirla para entrar.

Otra cosa que no me ha gustado es que aunque haya un montón de amuletos, muchos de ellos son directamente inútiles, algo que no pasa con juegos como Hollow Knight, donde la mayoría son útiles.

Aunque se nota que Ubisoft quiere dar otra cara con este juego, se nota que siguen siendo parte de Bugisoft, es frustrante la cantidad de bugs, acabo de vencer a un jefe importante siendo invisible y básicamente inmortal, los diálogos se repiten, las puertas doradas no se abren cuando les lanzas bombas, etc. Espero que arreglen esos bugs, arruinan un poco la experiencia.

También sufrí de varios crasheos, especialmente por quedarme sin internet y poner mi PC o Steam Deck en modo de suspensión, es imperdonable que te pidan internet para un juego singleplayer, es realmente molesto perder progreso por eso.

It's good to be honest.
It makes it different enough from SRB2K for not leave it obsolete.
It becomes obsolete on its own.

EN: Out of jokes, I am very mixed with this game.

To start, the tutorial is extremely long, it took me ONE FUCKING HOUR, it doesn't explain its mechanics well and too much text, it's a racing game, the first thing you want to do is get there and play, if there is going to be a tutorial it should be short and concise, but they don't even do that.

You go to the main menu, imagine you are in a group with friends who want to play online, you go to the mode and you find out that you MUST MAKE A GRANDPRIX PARTICIPATION TO PLAY ONLINE, they even block you from USING MODS, it's a decision that totally destroys what this genre does so well, get in and play, luckily they can improve all this in future updates.

My big problem is with the Gameplay, while it has very cool implementations like for example now getting Items becomes a roulette in which you can activate the skill you need at the moment, there are other very ridiculous decisions like adding quick drops, spending rings and tricks with springs, also the modification of physics and speeds, to the point that all this makes me think that it doesn't feel like I'm going full speed and I pray to stay on the road, if you run out of coins you will punish yourself enormously.

All these changes totally take away my desire to play, not even friends will want to play this game because of the many limitations this game gives you, its release leaves me quite bitter, but I am also optimistic for the future of this game.



Es bastante simpático.
Lo hace lo suficientemente diferente de SRB2K para no dejarlo obsoleto.
Se vuelve obsoleto por sí mismo.

ES: Fuera de bromas, estoy muy mixto con este juego.

Para iniciar, el tutorial es extremadamente largo, me duró UNA PUTA HORA, no explica bien sus mecánicas y demasiado texto, es un juego de carreras, lo primero que quieres hacer es llegar y jugar, si habrá un tutorial debe ser breve y consciso, pero ni eso logran.

Vas al menú principal, imagina estás en un grupo con amigos que quieren jugar online, vas al modo y te enteras que DEBES HACER UNA PARTIDA GRANDPRIX PARA JUGAR ONLINE, incluso te bloquean el USO DE MODS, es una decisión que destruye totalmente lo que este género hace tan bien, entrar y jugar, por suerte se puede mejorar todo esto en futuras actualizaciones.

Mi gran problema es con el Gameplay, si bien tiene implementaciones muy geniales como por ejemplo que ahora la obtención de Items se vuelve una ruleta en la cual puedes activar la habilidad que necesites en el momento, hay otras decisiones muy ridículas como añadir caídas rápidas, gasto de anillos y trucos con muelles, también la modificación de físicas y velocidades, al punto de que todo esto me hace pensar que no parece que esté yendo a máxima velocidad y rezo para mantenerme en la carretera, si te quedas sin monedas te castigarás enormemente.

Todos estos cambios alejan totalmente mis ganas de jugar, ni siquiera amigos querrán jugar este juego por las tantas limitaciones que te da este juego, su lanzamiento me deja bastante amargo, pero también estoy optimista por el futuro de este juego.

I'm so sorry, I really wanted to like the game, but the gameplay is mediocre, I can't believe Resident Evil 4 is one of the most influential games in action and this game took nothing from it.

The combat is reduced to lighting the enemies and using the pistol and shotgun or rifle, Also grenades and flares, running away is not a very good option, since the enemies are very fast and it is difficult to know when they will attack you from behind, Alan does not even run, just dodge infinitely and is very vulnerable, there are no kicks or a melee weapon, if you do not have bullets or other tools you're screwed.

The game looks for excuses to stay in the same forest as always in the most ridiculous ways, for example when they possess Rose and despite having changed her personality they don't hesitate a bit and have a coffee with a sleeping pill xD

The story is the best part of the game, especially the ending, it's open to two possible endings, it's great.

I really do not know if I recommend this game, if you do not mind eating 8 hours of the same monotonous gameplay with the same old forest that stretches like a chewing gum is your game.
