About This Game The Spiritual. The Supernatural. The Skeptical. All are touched upon in Nostradamus: The Last Prophecy. The player is immortalized as a profiler of sorts in this treasure hunt game - a brilliantly vivid historical rendition of the acclaimed quatrains of Nostradamus. The adventure begins in the South of France as Salon-de-Provence, and its Royal Family fall prey to unfathomable terrors. You play as Madeleine de Nostradame, the daughter of the famous astrologer, author and apothecary as she hunts down an assassin who uses astrology to disguise his crimes as fearsome prophecies. But when past, present and the uncertain future collide…your more logical nature may turn superstitious. 6d5b4406ea Title: Nostradamus: The Last ProphecyGenre: Adventure, CasualDeveloper:MicroidsPublisher:MicroidsRelease Date: 24 Apr, 2014 Nostradamus: The Last Prophecy Torrent Download [hack] Good game, surely not easy.Puzzles: Some easy, some hard, some extremely clunky. Potion mix puzzles are fun, the timed multi-one in the end not. EXTREMELY easy to remain stuck for a while on a puzzle. Some are even in your diary (and are story related too).Music: Okay but a little repetitive, near the end you miss some music variation.Story: Quite linear with no distraction, good plot.Graphics: Not excellent but acceptable, little amount of character encountered on the story AND mediocre voice acting.Bugs and glitch: I haven't encountered anyone, but a lot of people have, some even gamebreaking.Final vote: 6\/10 A decent puzzle game worth the time to play it but you would maybe prefer to buy in on discount.. Here is another "old" game that I was very happy to be able to play after so long. I didn't remember most of it anyway.What I truly love about this game is that most of the puzzles are very logical (and rather simple), unlike the new tendency of adventure games, which are usually based on gathering a lot random items without apparent reason, which you will have to combine (I positively hate pixel hunting), and where you don't always understand what you are supposed to do or, more important, why. In this game, everything you do has a purpose in the story. Futhermore, some of your choices have an impact on your progress (and score).I liked the story and the artwork so much, that I didn't care that the quality of the graphics was not the last of the last. Oh, and I found a little bug that made me have to restart the game (the importance of saving).Now, the truth is that it is a short game and the only interest of playing it again would be to try to get a higher score. But I am a sucker for this exact kind of game, so I loved it (and replayed it!).. The game starts nicely enough, and I must commend the artists who have done an excellent job. The renaissance Italy, full of colors and rich in details, provides an excellent and atmospheric setting for the upcoming adventure. Nostradamus, horoscopes (strangely called "charts" in the game), historical figures, sinister plot threatening the ruling family, all that is very promising and fresh. You can even pose as man or woman according to your wish, and the dialogues play slightly differently, which I found impressive.However, as the game unveils, its quality starts to deteriorate. The translation is not very good, sometimes you wrestle with an odd expression of unclear meaning. There is absolutely minimal amount if animation in the game - a guard extends his arm, woman throws dice, Nostradamus nods and smiles. At one occasion, you talk to a person over a closed door, which no doubt saved the dev team some time and effort. The late game puzzles become infuriating, especially a particular substitution cipher where you must decipher.. a French text, probably because translating the cipher would take too much effort. The characters are barely legible and sometimes similar, for example the character "-" (hyphen) means three different letters. The game also suffers from a split personality disorder. One moment you discover a dead body in a room, and are getting ready to open his personal chest to shed light on his murder, but your character refuses - Nah, probably nothing in there. Just another corpse. Without reporting your find, you are suddenly teleported to your home. Nostradamus listens to your report about the murder and then gives you a very important task - to brew a herbal tea, so that you can sleep better. I run back to the castle in the middle of the night, but the drawbridge was closed. Nobody cares. Another dead body? Old news.The game ends, I imagine, in a moment when the dev team run out of finances, their creditors probably stormed their offices, and started confiscating computer equipment. A duo of artists in the back room decided to quickly conclude the game with a 20 seconds long cutscene that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, and that's it, end of story. "You have finished the game with %d points"."%d" is a symbol for numeric value in formatted print. The programmer was probably dragged away by then, so there was nobody to correct the error. What a pity.. The parts of the game that I was able to play weren't bad. I hit the cosmic return puzzle, and am unable to progress further due to a bug. (Some people have had luck manually changing their window size to correct this, but I'm uninspired enough to bother at this point.)The atmosphere is well done, and the story is pretty good. The puzzles are fairly easy to solve if you've seen all your clues and understand how your tools work. While I can't reccomend this game, picking it up on sale might be worth giving it a try.. An adventure placed in an interesting historical setting, with an entertaining story and puzzles that make sense.What I like most about this game (and other games of the same developers) is the combination of a 360\u00b0 view with point&click gameplay. This makes for a very nice experience, and it's a pity that there aren't many games like this.. As far as point and click games go, I enjoyed it. While the plot was a little... contrived, I did like the theming.Good:For the most part the puzzles were enjoyable. My favorite part was the potion brewing. The enviroments and puzzles are pretty!Your goals are petty straighfoward, and for the most part it's hard to get stuck.Astrology! Alchemy! Potions! Stars!Bad:Timed puzzles. Those are a sick and cruel joke.Sometimes it felt like you were relying on dear ol' dad's help too much.Meh to stiff voice acting. Controls can cause motion sickness.. Recommended with reservations - this is a decent game, but it didn't capture me, mainly because I'm not into astronomy and the pace is slow since I got stuck a lot.I've only played the first day, so far, no hidden objects. There's a bit of recipe mashing, collecting ingredients and such, but for the most part, it is point & click. The graphics are 1024x768, and that looks decent enough (remember, TV and DVD have had worse resolution for decades). The graphic art is actually well done, I've seen a lot cheaper (and the orginal Myst never looked as good). That said, it is still a game where you stop at fixed positions, and then you can rotate the view and interact with the surroundings, or move to another position.The game gets full marks for the atmosphere and the storyline so far; for the actual puzzling, there are too few hints, which had me needlessly stumped because I couldn't figure out what the game wanted me to do.. Nostradamus is a point & click adventure where you (or at least your brother) are recruited to investigate a curse that is unfolding based on a quatrain written by Nostradamus himself. Nostradamus, your father, is in his late years now: old, weak, and frail. Since your brother is away, and because of the time period a woman does not seem fit to handle the task, your father sees it best to disguise you as your brother to help the queen's mother solve the mystery of people close to her dying as she is now in fear of her own life.Being a Microids game, the gameplay is quite good with a lot of similarities to Syberia and Return to Mysterious Island. It involves a lot of detective work with very engaging puzzles. The game also provides a good foundation of early astrology and chemistry. Highly enjoyable.
