Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure (2007): Point-and-Click Hunting | Capcom Quest #394

Would Zack be Higemaru's grandson? Capcom Quest of Zack & Wiki: Quest For Barbaros' Treasure! Solving various puzzles with the Wii Remote.


MacGyver is proud of the workaround I did to beat this game!





This was the time that Capcom made a game using 100% of the potential of the Wii Remote. If you don't have the right equipment, prepare to suffer.





I had to use an app that simulates the Wii Remote on the cell phone, it even serves as a stopgap, but the movements are not accurate.




I spent a long time trying to solve puzzles, and sometimes I knew the solution, but the cell phone's "Wii Remote" didn't help with the movements. I do not recommend this game without having the orignal control.




Anyway, this is an excellent puzzle game, most of the levels are challenging, but if you don't know what to do, you can buy hint tickets to advance.





I'm not a big fan of games focused on puzzles, but a tip I give is always use the bell when you see an enemy or animal, it will definitely become an item to be used.





The characters are very charismatic, despite Zack not speaking, the Wiki speaks for him. In addition to Captain Rose, who reminded me a lot of Tron Bonne's style.




High references to Capcom classics is here. There is a rhythm minigame that plays themes from games like Mega Man, SonSon, Speed Rumbler and also has some pixel arts hidden in the levels.





And finally, the save corrupted and I lost the recording of the last stages. My PC just blue screened (NOT THE FIRST TIME) I had to get a full save in GameFaqs and do the last battle. Ps: The plot twist of the villain is awesome.

 

I still have to watch the anime
