User Reviews for Lumino City

Really fun and cute!

This game is really fun. Logical puzzles for when you are bored. This is a book that has the answers but it is really fun to try and figure it out all by yourself (I wonder if you can!!) If you like games that take 10-20 minutes to complete you must be SUPER good at logic games or this is not the game for you. If you aren't good at math, logic, and/or reading then this DEFINITELY is not the game for you. But I do think if you like math, logic and/or reading then Lumino City has your name on it (not really it’s an expression that means you’d probably like it). The art is amazing and definitely really cute!

Difficult, tedious, not for autistic people..

The picture of the sweet little girl being carried by a bubble is not an accurate description of the game.. its not a gentle fluid game, its tedious and the people in the game the girl has to talk to are not encouraging and she has to do everything herself and things creek, and make noises, just cant enjoy the cuteness because of the difficult mechanic work, i thought i was gunna be flying on bubble. :( I cant play it because im autistic and it takes a lot of problem solving and executive function, which caused me great frustration and it felt like a great stressful burden to have to restore a whole city with only a book. Also there are no hints at all.. I wish i could return it. Idk why i try anything.. all this modern design is made for neurotypicals. Im not a mechanic and its really hard to play, i feel confused as what to do and did not even make it past the gate, all i got where the lemons... too difficult to play on iphone, use an ipad only..

beautiful, challenging game with clear instruction

Lumino City was so wonderfully pleasing to look at while also being a great puzzle game, which I am always a sucker for. What’s more, a lot of puzzle games have unnecessary challenges that are more a flaw than mastery, but this one falls right into mastery. If i got too stuck, I made sure to look at the page in the manual over and over and by-golly eventually it would click, and how fun it is to use your brain in that way! So grateful I ran across this gorgeous game. The ending storyline is a mystery to me, but I appreciate the visual story rather than it being spelled out, so kudos there. I’m curious if there’s something with the her grandparents named Mary and Joshua? Leaves me thinking. Well done.

Astounding

This game is visually and intellectually and artistically awe-inspiring. A tiny girl moves through an incredibly textured world using her wits and the manual given to her by her granddad. The world is so small, and it feels small, but it is also vast and filled with familiar mysteries. The manual itself is a work of art, and it’s only a piece of the game. It makes it everything that it is. For any challenge, it gives instructions, a simple clue, or the whole solution. This means nothing is miserably tedious or too hard because the answers are built in— not just to the game, but to the narrative. Our hero is learning the ropes, after all. You can play the whole game just by following/working out the explicit directions in the manual, and you’d be well within the narrative to do so. Not cheating at all. Absolutely immersive and challenging and mind boggling. I started to play it on my iPhone — not fun. Too small a screen. The whole thing changed for me when I tried it on my iPad. Finished the remainder of the game during a blizzard. Absolutely magical. Fully recommend to anyone and everyone.

Awe-inspiring, but for your consideration...

It would be an understatement to say that I found Lumino City absolutely breathtaking. It’s the story of a small girl venturing through handcrafted, visually pleasing lands to locate her beloved grandfather, the handyman of a vast city. However, there was one suggestion I had. When you select the level titled “The Captain”, you do not have the fish and chips you acquired in the level prior. As I find this level really enjoyable, I’d like to play it on its own, but I need the fish and chips to complete the level. It’s quite a process to have to hunt for the potatoes all over again. Maybe players could be able to select the level and automatically have the fish and chips? Thanks!

I WOULD NOT EVEN PAY 99 cents FOR THIS.

I consider myself to be a bit of a “graphics snob,” so it always catches my attention when there’s a game with rave reviews about its graphics, and the actual game play is equally as important. The screenshots didn’t look impressive to me at all, but I also understood this was made using real world objects and that sometimes screenshots can be rather misleading. There are so many great reviews about the game play, so I figured that even if the graphics are as disappointing as the screenshots look, I’d still enjoy the game. Wrong, wrong wrong.The graphics look exactly as you see here. I happen to be an artist, too, yet I have so little appreciation for the design of these “sets,” or whatever you might call them if they can’t be called “graphics.” I can’t think of a better description than “Childish.” (Maybe children would love this game? That’s a possibility...) As for the game play: Ugh. It’s just so plain stupid. Maybe I’m spoiled from the great games I have played? Maybe I expect to be challenged more than others? This game was so uninteresting to me in every way that I deleted it before even completing it. I’d rather re-play one of The Room games than play this game for another second. Gadz, I really regret paying money for this...

“As Good as it Gets”

I believe the highest rating should be reserved for almost-perfect games. This is one of those rare apps. My criteria are: 1. Unique, clever, thinking “out-of-the-box” creativity. 2. Beautiful, original graphics. 3. Audio that complements, but doesn’t distract. 4. Intellectually challenging, but follows a discernible logic; “genius I.Q.” not required. 5. Good quality for the money; long enough to be satisfying, but doesn’t overstay it’s welcome. 6. A true adventure in game playing. Congratulations to the brilliant development team behind this game; from a programmer that understands, appreciates, and thoroughly enjoys outstanding quality. Kudos!!!

So clearly made with so much devotion, effort and fun

There's not a corner, level or puzzle in this game that I didn't see an incredible amount of intricate energy put into this game. Even if it wasn't completely made by hand, this game clearly just had so many little things to catch the eye and show that it was made for you to enjoy. There was no cutting corners here, and it worked. I had so much fun playing this game, and there's not a lack of challenge here because they even included a handbook which you can have help guide you on levels, which I did use quite a bit to be honest. It was just amazing how much hard work and fun was had creating this game!! If this game doesn't deserve five stars I don't know what does!

I absolutely adore this game

Lumino City is one of the most creative and beautiful games I have ever seen, based on the concept and design alone. The levels were challenging but not impossible. Admittedly a couple sections didn't make sense to me and I had to hunt online to see how to get started.My single, solitary, one and only complaint about this gorgeous game is that it was obviously designed for a much larger screen than my iPhone. At times it was extremely difficult to maneuver or trap what I needed to because of the size. At other times, the camera angle, which might have been accommodated by a large screen (turbine tower!), were nearly impossible to see where I should be going. These things aside, I stuck it out and even watched the entire credit reel. It's a work of art, disguised as a game. 😊

Astounding in visuals, lacking in gameplay.

The first thing I said when I opened this game was “Wow.” I couldn’t believe that this game’s visuals were made purely through real life modeling. After all, I got this game because I knew this, and I wanted to get the whole effect of actually playing it; because good visuals or no good visuals, no game is a great one without entertaining gameplay.Then I actually started playing. After playing for a few hours, I was underwhelmed by the gameplay. All I experienced in this game was easy to solve puzzles. Nearly no story. No mystery. And no shock factor at all. If I had one word to describe the gameplay for this game, it would be “lacking”. There could be so much more done to make it so much more entertaining.Maybe it’s just me; maybe I’m not the kind of person that can just appreciate a puzzle game, and puzzle game only, for what it is. But with as good visuals as this game has, puzzles aren’t enough. I need a story...that is, something to keep me hooked. Without having that, games like these get boring fast. I would suggest passing on buying this game if you want something more than visuals and simple puzzles. If you want something more fulfilling, maybe try a game like “The Silent Age”. It has excellent visuals, somewhat challenging puzzles (but not too challenging), AND has a super compelling story with a more than satisfying ending.
