A funny game

The idea of the game is very interesting but it is not as helpful in fact as one would expect, at least it wasn't helpful for me, but rather annoying.

The success of training is less related to your knowledge of words and more on how good you are at "pixel-hunting" using not very precise controls (camera rotation and movement use inertial movement which makes aiming very difficult). Even if you know all the words (e.g. I tried it in a language that I know already) you will miss, and miss often.

The training functionality is very simple, you basically just select objects based on text/sound, you are not learning to write words or even match words by objects (also no word/translation and translation/word training), so you need to use some app like Anki to remember the words anyway, which makes the game pretty much useless.

Good things: for Swedish, you have the ability to enable articles which is very helpful (they are not pronounced, unfortunately). Having pronunciation itself is very good.

Well, that was something! I'm not a fan of quests but this one really got me.

Still good

The best game in the series. I have played it a lot with my friends when it just came out, but even now after almost ten years it looks decent and played very well.

I'd recommend this game for the people who want to play a realistic hardcore shooter but not super hardcore as Arma. Still here you sometimes need to ride a jeep for 20 minutes and get killed by a demolition man (to ride there for another 20 minutes).

You can play the campaign with friends, that is a super-fun thing to do, especially if they're the same crazy about realism and tactics as you, But you need to be in the same local network or use additional software to emulate local network over the internet to play online.

Brainexploding.

This game is very hard for new players, and almost every update only adds complexity to the metagameplay. if you don't have a friend that can spend several days to play with you and explain you everything then you'll have a hard time. Seems like developers change this game only in the way that makes old players pay more.

There are lot of good games in steam now. Enjoy them. Don't spend your time on this.

Funny game. Nice shooter mechanics. Good humor.

The game is very challenging and gives you lots of different puzzles that sometimes can blow your mind. The more important is the way that you're given all that puzzles. The game does not lead you by the hand, it even doesn't tell you what are actually puzzles. You should open your mind and all your feelings to reach the end.
I would like to tell more but I'm afraid I can spoil something (or I've already done it).

I played this game a year ago and still haven't find any puzzle game that so big, so different and gives such incredible experience. Once I completed it, my first thought was: "I want to forget all that I know about this game and play it once again".

One of the best games I've ever played!
