Greak Memories Of Azur Free Download GAMESPACK.NET The Switch is no stranger to quirky 2D platformers at this point. With so many quality titles to choose from, it can be tough for newcomers to stand out from the crowd. Greak: Memories of Azur is a solid 2D adventure game that, visually at least, can stand proud amongst some of the best examples of the genre, but with few original ideas to call its own, it’s most definitely at risk of being lost in a sea of excellent indie titles. Taking place within the land of Azur, you take on the role of three siblings from a race known as the Courines, who are locked in a raging battle with a rival race, the Urlags. The siblings have been split from one another, and it’s up to you to reunite them. Starting the game as Greak, it won’t be too long until you locate Adara and Raydel, and from there you can switch between the characters at will, using their unique abilities to solve puzzles and progress further into an increasingly hostile land. The first you’ll notice when booting up Greak: Memories of Azur is just how darn gorgeous it is to look at. The hand-drawn animations are exquisite, and the environments burst with colour and variety, from the depths of a dark cave, to the hustle and bustle of the main hub town.TOP/BEST ADULT VIDEO GAMES IN UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (USA)

Everything has been crafted with the utmost care and attention, and it really shows. In fact, our only wish is that the camera be a little more dynamic; you can move it around with the right analogue stick to check out more of your immediate surroundings, but it would have been fantastic if it zoomed in a bit during tense fights, or zoomed out as you enter a new area. During some of the game’s many puzzles, it would be a massive help if the camera panned out a bit to give a clearer idea of what you need to do. Controlling each of the characters feels reasonably slick for the most part. Each one is able to perform a double jump (or a hover ability in Adara’s case) and dodge roll, and all boast their own attack patterns. The combat can occasionally feel a bit messy, however, and it can be a bit tricky to pull off smooth combos with Greak’s sword. We’ve still not yet figured out if you need to simply mash the attack button, or press it in a rhythmic manner, but neither option seemed to garner much success.Similarly, traversal can be a bit of a bother on occasion. Adara’s inability to double jump makes reaching higher ledges tough. This is fine in most cases, as you can simply switch to a different character, but sometimes you’ll find yourself in a contained room with nowhere to go but up.

Hand-Drawn Art and Animation.

If you’re playing as Adara in these situations, be ready to miss many jumps before you manage to reach the exit. One of the better aspects of the game lies in its puzzles. There are plenty throughout the experience that feel fun without stretching your brain power too much. Most consist of finding ways to unlock doors, such as lining up beams of light across multiple mirrors, and other areas task you with collecting items within a set period of time in order to boost your powers. There’s a nice variety on display, and each of the biomes you visit feel unique without ever outstaying their welcome. The environments are a result of some excellent world building. Within the initial hub world, you’ll meet a plethora of well written characters, many of whom provide quests, or offer services and items to help you along your way. As you wander the lands, you’ll come across a wide variety of consumables, many of which can be combined at a campfire to create more potent meals (thanks, Breath of the Wild!). You’ll also gain an item early on which allows you to travel directly back to the town, should you wish to do so. The problem being extended runs coming to an abrupt end as you die and find yourself bounced back to your last save point as if attached by a bungee cord and running on a travelator. It’s especially galling when you have a fussy control system and a series of complicated jumps to nail.Good Company

Better still when you encounter unskippable cutscenes such as that when your party is finally fully reunited as three members. Well it would be but for the fact you’ll find yourself dying over and over again and calling bullshit. Then you reload and begin the cycle again. No. Just fuck off. What is noticeable from the outset is how Greak uses the Dualsense’s haptics effectively, especially when you’re on low health. This happens frequently, especially when you’re carrying mandatory quest items in lieu of any health recovery items. This is exacerbated by the lady of the party only having a paltry three item slots. Gameplay is actually fun, were it not for the pernickety inventory limits and having to retread large sections of the game over and again after you die miles away from your previous save. Clever puzzles are punctuating by generally entertaiing platform sections. Dialogue is fairly well written too with your interactions with NPCs being a fair highlight. It makes for a fair diversion from the otherwise generally solitary quest you find yourself on. Using the same mechanics as Breath of the Wild, you can cook up items at periodically placed campfires, put three items in to cook and hope for the best. The stingy save system is brought into stark focus by the fact that if you cook up a botched combo and decide to try eating it, you’ll die. We died so that you won’t. Instead, drop it and make like Yogi Bear and hopefully find some health giving nuts and berries instead.

Specially Crafted Puzzles.

So there’s a story of sorts with Greak and his two siblings (Adara & Raydel) being among the last of the courines, an albino hobbit pygmy sorta thing. For reasons not entirely apparent in the beautifully animated cutscenes, the evil Urlag race seek to wipe out the courines who are the peaceful inhabitants of the land of Azur. As you continue through the story, you’ll find puzzles that require you to switch between your party members. For example Adara can swim under water for an extended period, Greak can for a short time and Raydel dies instantaneously. Raydel’s introductory mission includes several jumps across awkward floating water plaforms, as as such can get in the sea along with Priti Patel’s border force jetski pricks. It’s a bit like Interplay’s SNES era collaborative platformer The Lost Vikings, just lacking in terms of implementation. We had a cursory glance at the trophy list as is our wont. There’s the usual story based trophies as you might expect, but two in particular stood out for us. Firstly finishing the game with a mere five saves. Yes really. What do you take us for? Reviewing games can be a thankless task at the best of times but this is just taking the piss. Right off the bat; let me just say that Greak: Memories of Azur is one of the best-looking and sounding indie games that I’ve played in my life. You play as a few siblings who are on a mission to save their land from the invading Urlag.SuchArt Genius Artist Simulator

Its game world is presented with beautifully-rendered environments and smoothly-animated characters to create quite a striking and stylish visual aesthetic. On top of that, you’re treated to an absolutely mesmerizing orchestral score and spot-on effects which simultaneously come from the DualSense controller to create a highly immersive soundscape. Speaking of the DualSense, Greak: Memories of Azur utilizes it brilliantly with the adaptive triggers and haptic feedback making platforming and combat super-engaging. It’s one phenomenally-presented experience. Of course, all of that wouldn’t add up to much if the gameplay wasn’t enjoyable so thankfully, it is; for the most part. In addition to running and jumping around, you’ll also battle enemies with a combination of melee and projectile attacks depending on your current character. Now that I mention it, you can swap between siblings Greak, Adara, and Raydel after you unlock the latter 2. Each character has their own traits such as how Adara can swim for longer and Greak can shimmy through narrow tunnels. Anyway, using a blend of the characters to solve somewhat elaborate puzzles is a treat although many of these puzzles are rather obvious and simply require some busywork to complete. All of this comes together to compose an intriguing formula that ranges from tedious to rewarding. When it comes to combat.

Unique Gameplay.

Greak: Memories of Azur will have you battle an assortment of creatures as well as bosses that generally aren’t a huge step up from regular enemies. To be frank, combat is the weakest aspect of Greak as it can get quite annoying for multiple reasons. First, you really have to keep your eyes peeled because the enemies often blend into the environments so you may be taken by surprise. Next, certain attacks render you defenceless. For example, performing a downward-thrust on some enemies will result in them taking a swipe at you when you’re in mid-animation so there’s really no avoiding receiving damage in these scenarios. You also have to be careful not to enter a dialogue screen via interacting with a key item and such around foes because they will damage you. On the plus side, there’s a nifty heal system where you collect ingredients, deposit them in a pot whenever you come across one, and create your own heal items. I enjoyed trying different combinations although I would have liked to have a recipe book to assist with this. The downside is that your inventory fills up almost instantly so you have to constantly use, sell, and drop items. You can expand your slots occasionally but doing so still doesn’t feel like enough. Limiting the player like this doesn’t make the gameplay more fun.

Finally, something that irritates me in this day and age is when games don’t offer an appropriate sense of direction nor provide a method to get your bearings. Once, every single quest in my log had nothing but non-descriptive text, I had no waypoints, none of the NPCs said anything remotely helpful, and all I could do was wander around aimlessly. Oh, and story quests and side-quests are blended together so you’ll rarely know what to do in order to progress. I once spent hours searching the game world for a key item; that’s not cool. Greak: Memories of Azur is a side scrolling single-player game with hand-drawn animations. You will take the role of three siblings: Greak, Adara and Raydel to guide them through the lands of Azur. Alternate control between them and use their unique abilities to escape from the Urlag invasion. Greak is the name of the main character, and the smallest brother of three.

Greak: Memories of Azur, it seems, has become a pretty divisive game. Having seen all the negative/mixed reviews, I felt the need to share my thoughts on the game – and why I think it deserves your time. Let’s start with the two things most reviewers seem to agree on: the graphics and the music. The hand-drawn art-style is utterly gorgeous, and with animated cutscenes scattered throughout the game, it feels like you’re playing a cartoon. Character animations are silky smooth, and environments are varied and intricately detailed.No Time
