Hello, how are you, I would like to show you my first impressions of a video game that has caught my attention, its name is Asterigos: Curse Of The Stars, a game that has caught my attention because of the similarity it has with others games like Inmortal: Fenix Rising and Kena: Bridge Of Spirits, or at least that's what it seems at first glance... and when I played it I realized that the aesthetic is similar to the first game named, and the gameplay resembles that of the second but is this a negative? Not at all.
Hola que tal, me gustaría mostrarles mis primeras impresiones sobre un videojuego que me ha llamado mucho la atención, su nombre es Asterigos: Curse Of The Stars, un juego que me ha llamado la atención por el parecido que tiene con otros juegos como Inmortal: Fenix Rising y Kena: Bridge Of Spirits, o al menos eso parece a simple vista... y es que al jugarlo me he dado cuenta de que la estética es similar al primer juego nombrado, y la jugabilidad se asemeja a la del segundo pero esto es algo negativo? para nada.
Asterigos: Curse Of The Stars begins with an interesting story, Hilda the protagonist, was abandoned by her father when she was still very young to go fight against a cursed army that was destroying the entire region but he never came back. It was then that Hilda, once she had grown up, went in search of her father to find out what had happened to him, if he is still alive and how she can save him, it is with this premise that she begins her adventure.
Asterigos: Curse Of The Stars inicia con una historia interesante, Hilda la protagonista, fue abandonada por su padre cuando esta era aún muy niña para ir a luchar contra un ejército maldito que estaba acabando con toda la región, pero éste jamás regresó. Fue entonces cuando Hilda una vez que se hizo mayor, partió en busca de su padre para saber qué le ha sucedido, si sigue vivo y cómo puede salvarlo, es con esta premisa que inicia su aventura.
Playably, the game mixes elements of exploration, although quite simple, since most of the paths offer few forks and the ones it does have are quite short, which I think was something wasted by the developers, although the strength of this game is really in its combat, which can remind us of games like the last God Of War, which forces us to block and attack in a coordinated manner based on enemy actions; something curious that this game has is that from the beginning we will have a handful of weapons, each with a different attack style: double daggers, sword and shield, spear, hammer and some bracelets that will allow us to attack with magic thus giving the game of a variety that is appreciated, I personally have opted for the double daggers since it is a fast and dodge style that I find more satisfying, but I think we will all find our own style in this game. We will have different skills that we can execute through the use of PM, and several classic potions that we can use to heal ourselves, raise our PM, among other things.
Jugablemente el juego mezcla elementos de exploración aunque bastante sencillos, ya que la mayoría de los caminos ofrecen pocas bifurcaciones y las que tiene son bastante cortas en lo cual creo que fue algo desaprovechado por parte de los desarrolladores aunque el fuerte de este juego se encuentra realmente en su combate, el cual puede recordar a juegos como los últimos God Of War, el cual nos obliga a bloquear y atacar de manera coordinada en función de las acciones enemigas; algo curioso que tiene este juego es que desde el inicio contaremos con un puñado de armas, cada una con un estilo de ataque diferente: dagas dobles, espada y escudo, lanza, martillo y unos brazaletes que nos permitirán atacar con magia dándo así al juego de una variedad que se agradece, yo personalmente he optado por las dagas dobles ya que es un estilo rápido y de esquiva que me resulta más satisfactorio, pero creo que todos encontraremos un estilo propio en este juego. Contaremos con diferentes habilidades que podremos ejecutar mediante el uso de PM, y varias pociones clásicas que podremos usar para curarnos, subir nuestro PM entre otras cosas.
Another of the most striking aspects of this game is that the development of the character is very well achieved, and that is that we can develop various skills and attributes, equip ourselves with different accessories to increase our statistics, we can level up as we fight and gain experience, equip advantages, use attribute points, learn a good variety of skills and earn talent points, all this will allow us to grow our protagonist to face the dangers that lie ahead, it is satisfying to observe how we become stronger as that we advance and this, together with the story that is told to us, is what manages to hook the player. The story is told with enough interest, at no time did I feel like I was just advancing without part of the story getting ahead of me throughout the adventure, the playable and narrative sections are well placed and that is something that I love.
Otro de los aspectos más llamativos de este juego es que el desarrollo del personaje está muy bien logrado, y es que podremos desarrollar varias habilidades y atributos, equiparnos diferentes accesorios para aumentar nuestras estadísticas, podremos subir de nivel a medida que luchemos y ganemos experiencia, equiparnos ventajas, usar puntos de atributo, aprender una buena variedad de habilidades y ganar puntos de talento, todo esto nos permitirá ir creciendo a nuestra protagonista para enfrentar los peligros que se le avecinen, es satisfactorio observar como nos hacemos cada vez más fuertes a medida que avanzamos y esto junto con la historia que se nos cuenta, es lo que logra enganchar al jugador. La historia se cuenta con bastante interés, en ningún momento sentí que avanzaba sin más sin que se me adelantara parte de la historia durante toda la aventura, los tramos jugables y de narrativa están bien ubicados y eso es algo que me encanta.
If you liked Kena: Bridge Of Spirits this is a game that you are going to like, despite the fact that it does not have the cute aesthetic of this one, its characters are quite nice and it deserves at least one opportunity, it is the first work of the creative studio and although it has its buts, it will be an attractive adventure for those who know how to appreciate their work.
Si te ha gustado Kena: Bridge Of Spirits este es un juego que te va a gustar, a pesar de que no tiene la estética tierna de este, sus personajes son bastante simpáticos y merece al menos una oportunidad, es el primer trabajo del estudio creador y aunque tiene sus peros, resultará una aventura atractiva para quienes sepan apreciar su trabajo.

se ve bastante bien este juego, creo que hay que darle una oportunidad
Nice game. The lady character looks like Lara Croft.
Haha I don't know if Lara Croft, but she is very nice.
Never heard of this game but looks cool. I can see the "God of War" aspects you mentioned. Kind of reminds me of "Dragon Age" visually too but more fast-paced since it isn't turn based. Like that it has an easy-to-follow skill tree with demonstration videos to the side. Looks like a fun game.
It really is a fun game, and not bad at all for the studio's first job. It gives good feelings and expectations about what his next game will be.
