This ranks among the Dark Souls of platformers. I probably died over 4000 times before I finally completed the game.

This game has some unique twists to its gameplay which makes it challenging and more fun than your standard platform game. It challenges you to think ahead, plan and try a lot of different approaches.

It took 4 years for the last area to be released so I could get the final achievement.
It was worth it.

A very good mesh of Pirate and Assassing gameplay. Absolutely loved the game and the story.

HOWEVER! The Freedom Cry DLC does not work. I know the game has been out for 10 years, but this also didn't work 5 years ago and many people had issues with it. If you want to play Freedom Cry, you will have to buy the separate version of the game.

It took me so long to get the last achievement, I forgot how the gameplay actually went. It took me more than 3 years for the last achievement. Each day I started the game and killed the bosses for the remaining legendary items. Sometimes, weeks would pass before an item would drop. But eventually out of 100 items in total, only 7 remained.

Last week something snapped and I grinded the last 7 ones which took me roughly an hour of absolute mindless grinding, seperated over 7 sessions.

I made a guide on how you can get the last achievement much more easily (shouldn't take more than 15 minutes of grinding), but you might consider it cheating: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2988531518

The game is no longer maintained so it still contains a few bugs. However, it is fully playable and it is possible to get 100% of the achievements.
It has some unique elements you don't see in other clicker games, but the rebirthing mechanism is bad and doens't help much after a few rounds.

The game is abandoned and doesn't work properly anymore. It has become impossible to obtain all achievements.

This game is original in its take to the typing genre. The game has a poetic story, unique art, fun puzzles and challenging battles. The achievements are fitting and not too hard nor too easy to get.

Due to the isometric approach it is a sometimes a bit difficult to navigate properly, but not enough to get frustrated.

9/10

- Not challenging

3/10 would not recommend

6/10 - Buy it on 80%+ sale

Adam's Venture is an adventure puzzle game with a story based on the Bible and free masonry conspiracy theories. Though the story is above average, the puzzles are much better. However, it feels like the team realised at 30% of development they had spent 80% of budget and had to make shortcuts. There are a lot of gaps in the story where it feels like you missed a cutscene expanding on the lore.

The wikipedia page states that this version of the game is the bundle of the first three episodes with upgraded graphics while leaving out many elements. Note that the first episode was released in 2009!
I think this game would have been much more fun if it was more polished and complete.

I really tried... The game is very shallow and repetitive without any clear notable progress after a decent amount of time. I have about 50k hours in idle/clicker games, so I know what I'm talking about. This game is way too slow, even for an idle game.
