Legacy - The Lost Pyramid 4+

A Marvelous Beginning to a Great Series

Obviously a rising star in game crafting, David has outdone himself by converting this game from its basic original form into a quality work at least equal to Legacy 2 in visual and navigational appeal. While the puzzles themselves were pretty much the same as in the original, certain inventory items required in the original were sometimes not available because some of the fundamental puzzle redesigns no longer required those items. Trying to locate those items did consume a little extra time, but it wasn’t a problem once I understood the puzzle redesigns (all changes I saw were sensible improvements).

It was a nice touch having the updated “key” to the tall building look suspiciously like the final inventory item acquired in Legacy 3. I wonder if Legacy 4 might just need a remarkably similar key to gain entry into its mysterious structure as well. We should all encourage David Adrian to finish Legacy 4 so we can find out.

The final astonishing part is that this game is free and devoid of ads. Download and play it; you won’t regret it.

Thank you so much! ❤️

Fun, interwoven, eerie - quite eerie

Felt like progress but not easy. Puzzles were tricky, but rewarding because they connect clues from different points into unexpected places across the journey.

It’s definitely a fresh approach to strategy, decoding & puzzle solving, escape room type games . The scale and rooms have a way of causing a sense of my smallness in vast large/liminal chambers, the background sounds are well considered and create a very creepy, anxious effect (especially in the great hall near the beginning of the pyramid … i always felt vulnerable/exposed in this hall.
. Like I’m all alone, yet being watched. I like the simplicity of the design aesthetic the mood created (this is even better and better with each successive games in David’s series (I’ve played 4).

What I love the most: I’m alone in the special world created by the game. The story references other characters, but we never see them - I wish more games were designed this way (I find other characters a distraction and they always disappoint because always remind me I’m playing a game, and most of the time they are a buzz kill, silly, weird - not people I would hang with - so I don’t want them in my fantasy journey ). When it’s just me, I can get pulled into and immersed the Specail World. lost in the world. I play these games to be alone.

Well made, fun, challenging

We just finished this game and found it to be fun, engaging and challenging enough without being frustrating. The graphics were very well done. The one thing I would change would be the hints system. Instead of sending players to the internet if they need more help perhaps just give a second more detailed hint.

I really appreciate that you don’t collect personal data. It’s challenging to find developers who don’t try to gather all your data for their own personal gain.
