South of the Circle

3〜4時間で一通り終わるストーリー自体はとてもシンプルですが、ボイスは繊細で、ゲームを遊ぶというよりも体験です。ゲームのきっかけでケンブリッジ・ファイブの歴史を初めて知れたり、冷戦中の西洋諸国の一般人の考えてたことを知ったりして、個人的には90年代生まれの自分にとって有意義なゲームでした。レビューの中に和訳がしょぼいという意見もあったのですが、2024年時点は全く没入感を壊していない気がします。 もともと英語の練習という目的で遊ぼうとしたので、聞いて分からないところだけ字幕みるプレイヤーにして問題ないと思います。が、Claraのアクセントというか、ブリティッシュ英語に慣れてない自分には酷でした😂 個人的には、和製ゲームはこういうリアリティを再現する教育的なストーリーが欠けているところに残念です。

ひとまず無料のとこまで遊んでみました。今のところはほぼ操作などはすることなく出てくる選択肢をぽちぽち押してストーリーを読んでく感じのゲームです。 ただ無料版のところが短くて続きを読みたい！気になる！という感じになる前に終わるなと思いました。 日本語訳は普通だと思います。

とにかく日本語訳がガバガバ きっといい話なんだろうけど翻訳がガバガバ過ぎて話が全く入ってこないです。

It’s a bit sad, but in the end it an absolute mind-gripping story it’s really good and I highly recommend playing it!

WELL I SUMMED IT UP ⬆️ FOR THE MOST PART BUT WILL ADD A LITTLE BIT MORE. HATE THE MAJORITY OF APPS IF NOT ALL. THEY ARE ALL VERY TODDLER BASED AND SO EASY ON THE BRAIN IT REALLY SHOULD BREAK THE REALITY OF OUR GENERATIONAL INTELLIGENCE. AS IF WE ALL HAVE DEMENTIA OR JUST LIKE 3 WAYS TO MATCH OR PLAY WITH POTATO HEADS. WONDER WHY HARVARD HAS SUCH SAFE SPACE U CANNOT ESCAPE COLORING OR YOUR 911 NU. ON THE BACK OF YOUR CARD. SORRY BUT THAT MADE AN ACCIDENTAL DOWNLOAD A LIFE-CHANGER FOR A GRANDCHILD AND A BIT OF EMOTIONAL OUTBURST BY LITTLE OLD ME. WOULD HAVE LOVED TO HAVE A BIT OF AN HOUR AND A HALF BUT U TAKE WHAT YOU CAN GET. THANK GOODNESS FOR SOME CONTENT WITH BIG BIRD POP UPS AND ANOTHER TEMPLE RUN. MUCH APPRECIATED AND PLEASE PLEASE LETS NOT OUTLAW TODDLER GAMES BUT LETS NOT FORGET WE ARE GROWN UPS AND WE ALL NEED TO GROW UP AND SURPRISE OURSELVES WITH A LITTLE I FOUND A MATCH TO LIGHT THE STOVE BLUE.

This game was one of the most beautiful animations i’ve seen and very well done! I loved this story but the ending felt so abrupt, i wish there was more development about Clara and Peter. We never found out more and what some of peter’s decisions were. I just felt very unfulfilled with the ending and after spending so much time on this game it was a little disappointing.

This game took me completely by surprise. It has a minimalist art style I wasn’t sure I’d be into, but it’s actually used it in a really intriguing way. The camera acts like a cinematic viewpoint at times, which works really well for a narrative title. So many story-based mobile games are 2D, so it was nice to play an immersive 3rd person adventure game. I think the most impressive part of South of the Circle is the writing and voice acting. I start lots of narrative games but quickly give up because the performances are weak and/cringy. This game was voiced sincerely and never veered into cheesy overacting territory. And then there’s the music! It REALLY contributes to the mood. So well done! If there’s complaints to be had, I’d say it’s the story that keeps this from becoming a masterpiece. It’s incredibly engaging for the majority of the game but kind of falls apart at the end. However, this doesn’t detract from the overall experience. If you like narrative games, this is my favorite one on mobile so far!

can you make this this game apple arcade?

If you’re looking for an action game then this won’t be for you. While it may feel a bit boring and frustrating at times not being able to control the main character (Peter), this is one of the best stories to a game I’ve ever played. It’s short and only took about 2-3 hours to finish so it’s perfect if you don’t have a lot of free time on your hands. I’d highly recommend this to anyone for its theme, artwork and plot. MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD PROCEED WITH CAUTION: All I wanted to add here was that the story does have a sad ending so just be aware that none of the actions you choose in the game really have an impact on the story. If you need further explanation on this there’s a good Reddit post that explains the meaning of the story pretty well
