Cradle-18

Cradle-18

I wake disoriented. Where am I? Looking out a window, I see the light reflected off the planet below. Clearly, I’m in orbit, but over a planet I don’t recognize. How did I get here? Why can’t I remember anything? Where is everyone?

Cradle-18 is a 3D walking simulator aboard an orbital space station. Explore from one compartment to the next to unravel the mystery of this deserted craft. What was the mission? And what has become of the crew? Am I truly alone?

No enemies. Seems there is nobody to fight with.

Search for clues and collect information to piece together the answers. But space is a harsh environment, and the systems on this craft are showing signs of stress. Survival is not guaranteed.

Notes of horror. It feels uncomfortable on the uninhabited station in space.

Space ambient music. Enjoy space views to the beautiful space music. While you can.

I actually tied out this game genuinely and the instructions in the tutorial can be slightly confusing, and the Transformer table is not labeled like the rest of the equipment which is a tad confusing.

The real main issue is though that when you submit the products at the end of the tutorial or the end of the first level the level end screen is completely bugged and doesn’t work, even on the tutorial.

Otherwise for a free game I was actually kind of digging the basic concept and somewhat silly story. Shame I couldn’t try the harder levels

The Adventures on Uranus

The Adventures on Uranus

The Adventures on Uranus is an example of competent developer direction and skill. With a game like this on the market, it is unimaginable how Cyberpunk even has a chance.

I ran into one bug, which put a damper on my progression in the game. I walked from one tower, to the other tower. Upon entering the second, and final tower, I was unable to ascend the stairs of this beautiful environment.

Nonetheless, the artistic direction and world building are phenomenal. The developers really thought out a unique and interest world for me to engage in. It’s set on an alien world, never before seen or heard of — Uranus. Apparently this name is rooted in deep, real world, mythology. Way to go devs!

The Adventures on Uranus is a short, sweet experience. No objectives or timer of any kind make for a genuinely relaxing experience, allowing you to get absorbed into the vibrantly-colored world of this game. The tower interiors are especially mesmerizing, and the town square is thoughtfully laid out and peaceful. A wonderful and promising first foray into game design and programming - well done to John and Alex!

Tacoma

Tacoma

When Game Informer magazine came out in August 2015 - two years ago - it had a compelling cover for a game which had yet to be released. I read the entire article, and realized I had to play this game. There was just enough detail balanced with mystery, especially as it relates to the story and the game mechanics, that it drew me in. I wanted this game.

This isn’t a first-person shooter (although, thankfully, it is first-person). You won’t be shooting bullets, or slicing and dicing with a sword. If you’ve played the game Gone Home, and liked it, you’ll like this game even more. If you’re not a fan of Gone Home, especially because of the “shortness” of the original game, Tacoma has a lot more story, depth, and a slightly more complicated game mechanic.

This way to the TACOMA DOME!!!!

Introduction

Tacoma is a narrative focused game, a “walking simulator” developed by Fullbright, the creators of the lauded Gone Home . The game involves exploring a space station, uncovering information about its former inhabitants (as well as the future of year 2088) through recorded scenes and a detailed environment.

Everything that Gone Home got right, the deeply meaningful topics of the narrative, the empathy for the every-day average person, the sonder-ful and wonderful environmental storytelling - this game does it better. The studio’s sophomore game definitely shows off everything they’ve learned from Gone Home - and their mastery of narrative places this game at the peak of the “Walking Simulator” genre. The only problem with this game is that it didn’t last longer (about 2 hours, for me)

Was It Worth It?

Was It Worth It?

Still struggling to figure out the ending that the ??? bot mentions, as he says to go where Terry says is cursed, but the bars are blocking me. I really enjoyed the game. When reading the description, I thought this would be like The Stanley Parable where you can repeatedly defy and anger the narrator, and while that turned out to be wrong, I loved it. If someone could make a guide for all the achievements, that would be appreciated because so far I cannot find anything online. (Update: I figured it out.)

Major Pros:

  • Annoy Terry

  • Disobey Terry

  • 11 endings

Minor Pros:

  • Collect rubber ducks (quack!)

  • Good voice acting

Major Cons:

  • Question sections are a bit of a grind to replay

Minor Cons:

  • Detailed loading screen disrupted the immersion

  • One character isn’t voiced which comes across awkwardly

Quick Recommendation

I enjoyed repeatedly annoying and disobeying Terry -I mean, playing Was It Worth It? I liked having the 11 different endings, though repeatedly answering the questions for endings that required them was tedious. The rubber duckies were fun to collect and I thought the voice acting was pretty good, though it was awkward that one character wasn’t voiced. I also found the loading screen distracting and wished it was a bit more immersive. I recommend Was It Worth It? to fans of story-driven walking simulators with meta humor.

Interregnum Chronicles: Signal

Interregnum Chronicles: Signal

First advice: Read the game description closely :)

This plays like a “walking” simulator inside a satellite called “Harmony” that accommodates one person, so you’re floating in microgravity with ways to grab onto things and push yourself around. The core of the game is to tweak signal processing using human interfacing terminals, and that mysterious signal of unknown origin and requires decoding to find out what it is/says/does. At first the system doesn’t have the capacity to process the entire signal so an Operator (you) needs to approve lots of AI upgrades. See where this is going?

So I have played this game a fair bit and tried to “get into it” but honestly, it’s pretty awful. I’m writing this review with steam saying that I have had 11 hours playtime, but really it’s more like 5 or 6 because I would leave the game on to “idle” in order to farm the necessary resources to progress the story.

And that is pretty much the game in a nutshell. Leaving it running to obtain an ever increasing targeted number of resources that are basically just numbers on one of several terminal screen’s. There are Networking, Data Processing and Memory “resources” that you need to increase in order to upgrade the stations AI and each resource is tied to the others with glass ceilings that you need to break by obtaining more of one of the other resources. There are ways to expedite the process such as using up to 4 batteries on a terminal but honestly, that just gets annoying. The batteries will explode if you overcharge them (or at least damage the stations electrics) and when you do use them they don’t last long at all. I haven’t timed them but I would be shocked if they actually last more than a minute or two at most. When you do have to recharge them as well, you can only carry one at a time and so you have to take each one from where you need it back to the garden where the charging ports are. Obviously you can’t plug one in and leave it charging whilst you fetch another as it will likely overcharge and short out the electrics so you end up floating along carrying one for a 2nd, dropping it to pick up another, dropping it to pick up a 3rd and so on until you get them where you need to go. Obviously you are in space with no gravity and so they drift…. a lot. Yeah, lets just say that gets old. Fast.

A simplistic walking sim with a bit of strategy involved. Easy mechanics to learn. Simple graphics with a chill soundtrack.

Your time would be better spent playing flash games instead of this. Glad I didn’t have to pay for it.

The mystery of the planet venus

The mystery of the planet venus

Picked this up on a whim and genuinely enjoyed it.

It’s very much an indie game, it has a couple bugs and quirks but nothing game breaking. Got myself stuck in a wall at one point but all I had to do was reload the save.

The story and atmosphere were extremely interesting. I really hope the dev continues the story, but if not I’m excited to see what else they come out with.
