Universal [RPG] Marenian Tavern Story (by KEMCO)

Are there any substantial differences between this and ABS? Anything changed or improved?

 

First of all, graphics: 3D environment.
Gameplay: not much changes. Explore, cook, repeat.

 

This look like what they did with ABS if this is a iPad in the video.
Instead of making it fully iPad compatible they throw bars around the game this time blue last time black. If they did this I’m out.

 

That’s what they did. Doesn’t bug me during play, though.

 

Ah ok yea gonna avoid it for now it’s the reason I never went back to abs on my iPad
I guess if I ever plan to play on iPod maybe I’ll buy but most my games are on my iPad, for me the bars are annoying..

 

I wish they didn't have bars but they don't bother me. And tbh, if you pass on every game with bars, you're missing out on a lot. No joke, many NEW games just add bars around the screen because it has easier compatibility with the standard screen sizes. And some games have been in development for a long time and the devs don't want to bother changing what's already finished to them.

As for the game itself, I'm really enjoying. Lots of fun and the story is enjoyable as I'd expect. Probably my favorite Kemco RPG (technically Rideon) release this year.

 

I deleted this after a couple hours last night, its just super repetitive. Felt like a Kairosoft game.

 

I am a fan of Adventure Bar Story and so I couldn't wait to pick this one up! I have put a few hours into it and it's great so much better than the original with lots of improvements. I would love to see Kemco team up with Rideon Japan for some more RPGs!

 

Near the end of the game, there is a “bug” when you need to cook Coco’s mystery soup.

The ingredients aren’t in the inventory, and the reciepe is no where to be found in the soup category.

In order to cook the mystery soup, you need to make sure you browser all reciepes and scroll all the way downz the reciepe is found at the end of the list.

I understand the dev’s design choice here, they didn’t want the users to lose the ingredients by doing an original cooking. However, the mystery soup reciepe should have been found under the soup category. I lost a few hours. And Gino’s dialog was causing confusion too.

 

Here is what I was talking about.
