Ok, here is my initial reaction to the game, after 45 mins or so of game time.
Pros:
- Vibrant graphics. Everything seems to be alive in the environment (plant, leaves, grass etc)
- Great story accompanied by some brilliant curscenes
Cons:
- Sketchy controls. Point n click, but you can't go around objects automatically...really?
- Out of sync sound in cutscenes at times. I can see Horn's mouth clearly moving, but the sound comes 5 seconds later...like wtf?
- Lots of stuttering and lag. I can't believe it, and this shakes my faith as to whether Android is a viable gaming platform. Too many high-quality games are stuttering on my high-end Tegra 3 tab (Gameloft's, Shaodwgun THD, Sonic THD and this).
- Low framerate all around. Seems like a Gameloft garbage in that sense. For a game OPTIMIZED for Tegra 3, this is freaking unacceptable
- Slow paced (this may be a culmination of all the cons above)
I'm gonna try and get my hands on an iPad copy and see just how much smoother things are there.
Thanks!
