We’re always excited to see good quality audio games, particularly ones with high bars in sound and game play hit the market. One fault many games suffer from is replay-ability – can I still do cool post-game action and have things feel more random in the story after I’m done? Or have I just wasted $39 of my money for a week’s worth of distractions, anticipation, and nervous fits over not being able to complete my game?
When playing Manamon, these were some of the factors that lead us to consider it a great choice for an Audio game. It’s at least a year’s worth of development effort which culminates in an action-packed adventure featuring a Pokemon-style environment with similar concepts. For example, trainers are tamers, but just like Pokemon, you have starter characters and types. You complete quests on a journey to uncover the hidden operations of the Shadow Kingdom, and battle to become more and more powerful through levelling up your Manamon and turn-based fighting opponents.
We recommend two resources for your journey, friend.
The main Manamon game page for downloading and ordering,
and The Audiogames.net forum topic where you can find a turn-by-turn walkthrough of the game, if you get a little stuck in a puzzle. I wouldn’t completely spoil the fun with it, though – but in-game clues are sometimes less obvious. Good luck on your travels, and may Ziognioss be with you.
