There, protagonist Etienne Quist has to steal relics from the books he enters, getting wrapped up in the tale of each one accordingly. The Bookwalker: Thief of Tales puts players in the shoes of a writer-turned-thief who enters a new story each chapter to shave time from his writer's block sentencing. RELATED: Huge New Xbox Game Pass Addition Was Perfectly Timed The Bookwalker is Similar to One Chamber of Secrets Plot Point It's a familiar idea to fans of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, which could mean that the second game in Avalanche's potentially-budding franchise could logistically make it work as a narrative thread to be explored. The Bookwalker came to Xbox Game Pass in June, with one of the narrative wrinkles being the act of entering a book to change, alter, and overcome the events of the story. Having that freedom is something that the developer should absolutely take advantage of, even dipping into specific plot points in the novels or films that serve to elevate the story being told. While there are plenty of recognizable inclusions, the Avalanche Software offering has barely scratched the surface, and with the first game's commercial and critical success, the sky could be the limit when it comes to a potential follow-up. From Hogwarts itself to more obscure elements like the Room of Requirement, it does well to take advantage of the toolbox that Harry Potter has created.
Won't recommend but I don't regret playing it either.Hogwarts Legacy was an ambitious project, but it had the benefit of being able to lean somewhat heavily on pre-existing lore. I spent more than a hundred hours in this game but some things I played through in irritation or boredom. The designers and artists must have taken years to implement all the details in the castle. Hogwarts Legacy gives lots of things to explore. Also, the missions with Poppy Sweeting have the most beautiful level design,majestic beasts included. And, if you're a Ravenclaw, you won't even get a chance to solve a riddle when you enter your house's common room.Īmong the good things, I personally loved flying on a broom and caring for the beasts. The world won't react to your actions even if you're walking through the castle killing everyone you meet.
Noone really explains why you're so special and talented.
You don't have a history before Hogwarts. This game is full of chests but their contents are mostly rubbish.Īll in all, the character you're playing as is an avatar. However, the plot, the overall scriptwriting, the dialogues, the characters, even voice acting are very mediocre and sometimes even bad. Most of the efforts went into the visual stuff and design of the world so it would look believable. If you're a fan of Harry Potter world, it's worth looking into it, but if you're a gamer who loves a good story, well-written characters and interesting sidequests, brace yourself.
