Жонатан Блоугийн шинэ бүтээл болох The Order of the Sinking Star нь PlayStation 5 дээрх хамгийн хэцүү Platinum Trophy-той тоглоомуудын нэг болж магадгүй байна.
Хөгжүүлэгч Жонатан Блоугийн шинэ оньсого таавар бүхий The Order of the Sinking Star тоглоом нь PC, Nintendo Switch 2 болон PlayStation 5 дээр худалдаанд гарлаа. Шүүмжлэгчдээс өндөр үнэлгээ авч, Metacritic дээр 83 оноотой байгаа энэхүү тоглоом нь PlayStation Store-д 4.99 гэсэн маш сайн үнэлгээтэй байна. Тоглоом нь ид шидийн ертөнцөд өрнөх бөгөөд тоглогчид хатан хаан, хулгайч, дайчин, шидтэн болон ярьдаг завь гэх мэт өвөрмөц чадвартай дүрүүдийг удирдан дөрвөн үндсэн ертөнцөөр аялах юм.
Тоглоомын явцад 1,400 гаруй оньсого багтсан бөгөөд бүх зүйлийг 100 хувь гүйцээхэд ойролцоогоор 500 цаг шаардлагатай гэж хөгжүүлэгч Жонатан Блоу мэдэгджээ. PlayStation 5 дээрх “Completionist” нэртэй Platinum Trophy-г авахын тулд тоглогчид тоглоомын ертөнц дэх бүх оньсогыг тайлах шаардлагатай болох төлөвтэй байна. Хэдийгээр үндсэн түүхийг дуусгахад бүх оньсогыг тайлах албагүй ч, Platinum Trophy-г зорьсон тоглогчдын хувьд энэ нь маш урт хугацааны сорилт болох нь тодорхой юм.
Шүүмжлэгчид уг тоглоомыг бүтээлч, үзэсгэлэнтэй хэмээн үнэлж, Noisy Pixel 10/10, ComicBook 8/10 оноо өгсөн байна. Тоглоом нь өгүүлэмж, түүхээс гадна шинэ механик, саад бэрхшээлүүдийг байнга нэвтрүүлж, тоглогчдын логик сэтгэлгээг шалгадгаараа онцлогтой. Үндсэн кампанит ажлын явцад ахиц гаргаснаар олон төрлийн амжилтуудыг олж авах боломжтой бөгөөд Platinum Trophy-г эзэмшигч анхны тоглогч томоохон хүндэтгэл хүлээх нь гарцаагүй юм.

The Order of the Sinking Star has been released, and it may boast PlayStation’s hardest ever Platinum Trophy.
Jonathan Blow’s latest puzzler has already impressed players, sitting at a very respectacle score of 4.99 out of five on the PlayStation Store, correct at the time of writing.
It fared decently well with critics too, achieving a score of 83 on Metacritic – and I should mention that the game is available across PC and Nintendo Switch 2 as well.
It’s only on PlayStation 5, though, that you can chase down that coveted Platinum Trophy and, as observed by True Trophies, it may just be one of the hardest ever to obtain.
The Order of the Sinking Star features over 1,400 individual puzzles and according to creator Jonathan Blow, it could take you around 500 hours to reach 100% completion.
You’re probably seeing where this is going.
You do not need to complete 1,400 puzzles in order to roll credits on The Order of the Sinking Star but it looks as if you may have to if you want the game’s Platinum.
Simply titled “Completionist”, the Platinum tasks players with finishing “every puzzle in the overworld”.
At this stage, it can’t be totally guaranteed that it means every single in-game puzzle as it’s too early to know what’s considered an overworld puzzle and what isn’t.
Whatever the figure is though, it’s likely not to be far off 1,400 puzzles.
When you bring in what Blow said about a completionist playthrough taking 500 hours, it’s going to be a long while before anyone secures this Platinum.
You’ll be pleased to know that the vast majority of trophies look far easier to secure.
There are many pertaining to secret and hidden objectives, but players will also be rewarded for simply working through the various segments of the main campaign.

Critics have dubbed The Order of the Sinking Star “inventive” and “beautiful”

If this is the first you’re hearing of The Order of the Sinking Star, you may be familiar with developer Blow’s prior games, Braid and The Witness.
The Order of the Sinking Star is set in a magical realm and is basically played across a series of grids with players needing to traverse said grids.
It’s, perhaps rather obviously, more complicated than that. Almost every puzzle builds on the formula, introducing new obstacles, gameplay mechanics, playable characters, and more.
There are four main worlds to explore and you can “come and go as you like”, undertaking puzzles at your own pace.
You’ll be able to command a queen, thief, warrior, wizard, and talking boat – all of whom boast their own unique abilities.
The Order of the Sinking Star prides itself on just how narrative driven it is. As you progress through the game’s puzzles, “piece by piece and clue by clue, you’ll uncover the secrets of the Order of the Sinking Star”.
“Order of the Sinking Star is a demanding and inventive puzzle adventure that constantly finds new ways to challenge your understanding of its rules,” Noisy Pixel said, awarding a perfect score of 10/10.
ComicBook awarded a score of eight, writing, “Order of the Sinking Star is the kind of puzzle game that continually finds new ways to surprise you, whether through another clever mechanic, a beautiful new environment, or an unexpected story moment.”
It sounds as if this is one we’ll definitely hear pop up during awards season. I think whoever nabs that Platinum first deserves an award too.
