Ankora: Lost Days
Critic Reviews for Ankora: Lost Days
It's hard to get invested with what Ankora: Lost Days has in store. The story and the characters junior ranger Mûn will meet are just… there, the visuals are bright and colourful, but in the end totally forgettable, and the gameplay is all about wasting time while trying to find the necessary resources that can help the little heroine craft the tools that will help her keep on exploring, with fun not being a part of the equation.
Ankora: Lost Days is a colourful survival adventure game where you'll explore a new planet and use your smarts and tools to unblock obstacles in your path. If you're looking for a simplistic adventure with a fun twist on other games in the genre then pick this up but just don't expect a ton of depth when it comes to gameplay and anticipate getting a little lost on occasion, too.
Ankora: Lost Days is a bit of a peculiar game. After playing it I think it might be a little confused in its identity. It is not an open adventure game where you have the freedom to explore fully like in Summer in Mara. Moving around the map and terraforming it makes it a kind of puzzle as you figure out how to get from east to west. Some aspects of the game stand out, the music is lovely and the animations are done well, but I much prefer Summer in Mara and so might you!
Ankora: Lost Days is a very interesting game in terms of graphics and gameplay. But beware, it is not for everyone. Puzzle solving and crafting -also terraforming- are the order of the day, with doses of backtracking in addition to an isometric perspective. It is a calm and calm game, where patience and problem solving prevail. But not for action-hungry gamers.
