Potential for more – OPUS: Rocket of Whispers Review

I was sucked in by the intriguing intro to the game, and purchased the full version with pets and soul stone bonus. I'd say it's worth the base price of $1.99, but the extra two bucks for bonus pets isn't worth it, they don't do anything. I thought they would be more involved in the main character's journey, or be more interactive, so it was disappointing. The experience is immersive and unique, the top down perspective takes a moment to get used to, and understanding your environment can be a little challenging at times. Love how the weather patterns, encounters and events can affect your vision in your journey. The storyline started in an interesting direction with tons of potential, but it didn't feel like it landed anywhere that felt satisfying. Sometimes the interaction between the two main characters even get a little tedious, and there wasn't much in the way of character growth, especially with ornery John. There should be an option to skip the dialogue. Also the final scenes of the game, though stunningly beautiful, came at an unexpected time. I thought it would continue on, but instead, the tasks that were still incomplete and now seemed like they no longer mattered. Definitely worth the initial experience if you like a unique take on scavenger hunts. Give it a whirl, worthy of the initial investment. But it does kinda flatline after a point. I hope they decide to develop this game further.
