The Dragon Gate has been opened. Are you prepared to enter the City of Darkness?
Not sure why this game or this developer doesn’t get more reviews but it prompted me to write one-these guys & this game deserve it! First, a major shout out to this historic depiction of Hong Kong culture! The seedy or sometimes desperate characters who are just trying to do their best to survive, the gorgeous intricate artwork, the funky locales & back alleyways of the Walled City were mind boggling. This game took time & great effort to make! The soundtrack from the onset pulled me in & who knew a cartoon pumpkin headed protagonist could be so compelling! The gameplay was intuitive and the puzzles were fun and sometimes challenging, yet not so difficult that I couldn’t figure it out with a little head scratching. Thank you Cotton Games for this beautiful piece that pays homage to a time in Chinese culture that may otherwise be forgotten. It prompted me to explore other Cotton Games (for which I am now a FAN!) as well as learn more about the Walled City of Kowloon. Can’t remember the last time a game prompted me to learn more about history!
I’ve played and finished this game idk how many times now. Every time I kind of forget about it, it pops up during a search and I get nostalgic and have to play it again. I even paid for it a few times, that’s how much I love this game. If you are reading this, and you like/are searching for point and click games, stop! You have stumbled upon a gem. My only problem is it ends! Also, where is part 1? I’ve searched and searched but am yet to even find it in a google search. TO THE DEVS: Please, I’m begging you, make another one! People will buy it, trust me!
I’ve been a gamer for over 30 years, played every genre of game on a multitude of systems. I’ve always loved point and click puzzle adventures and this is one of the best! Cool hand drawn environments, interesting characters, and fun puzzles. The game doesn’t really have a deep storyline… but after you play through the game you’ll surely feel you got to know this unique town and the many characters you interact with on your journey. Enjoy!
Overall I enjoyed the game, but it is too simple. I am a big fan of puzzle games. Mr. Pumpkin 2 is similar, but different from Mr. Pumpkin 1. In the second version there were less puzzles. The best puzzles of the game came after the ending credits, where you find yourself back in the bedroom of Mr. Pumpkin 1 for a round of puzzles. Mr. Pumpkin 2 is more of a scavenger hunt where Mr. Pumpkin 1 is more puzzles. I found that 1 was better than 2. The scavenger hunt in 2 was simplistic...way too easy to connect the dots. Rather than figure out what characters need, they tell you. Like, “go find my remote control”. Way to simple and easy, not challenging enough. If they do a three, they need to have more puzzles and a more challenging “scavenger hunt”.
An interesting and generally well done game, but I ran into a bug that forced me to use a walkthrough. After getting the instructions from the pharmacist there is now way to repeat them. All others characters repeat their instructions when asked but not him. I find the solution, for which I had to use a walkthrough, kind of finicky to manually get right - the controls are not too clear. Other bugs that are less important are that characters routinely forget if they have already given Mr Pumpkin something or already received something from him and repeat things inappropriately.
I knew I would love this game! The arts. The stories. The puzzles. I am as in and a quarter Chinese from my mom. I recognized everything in this game as I saw them when I was little either in person or in Chinese tv shows or drama. I wish the game wasn’t so short. It is different and definitely brought back the nostalgic child memories in me out. I love Asian theme games like these. Praying and hoping and giving my support to creator to make more games like !
I really enjoyed playing this game. I had never played the first and didn’t know what to expect. After the first chapter, I started to understand the game play and get the hang of it. I needed to use a hint a couple of times, (my iPhone pull-up bar at the bottoms of the screen almost blocked them), mostly enjoyed figuring everything out myself! Very enjoyable game!
I love isoland games. Was hopping this would be similar. It’s close but so issues. I honestly hate the puzzles bc some are so picky that it seems like it’s not the right solution when it is. Becoming frustrating and impossible. I can’t finish it bc I just don’t like the puzzles (some are just random and senseless) and the arcade games blow and u can’t pass. Lots of running back and forth with the hopes the items work. Had to find hints too
