It’s just you and the world and the many contraptions that you encounter. Yes, it’s such a vast world but you don’t get any kind of enemies. Or how you are even there in the first place or if there would be any enemies. It is kind of frustrating when you have no idea what is going on or why you need to escape. You really won’t get any kind of clue as to what needs to be done but you can explore the world as far as limitations take you. It’s a game for patient people and I mean patient people who likes to tinker with things. The world of Obduction is a vast open-world that needs to be explored. You can’t seem to fall over the edges though and I don’t think they have any explanation about this whatsoever and is probably just a design thing. Maybe the gravity in this planet is too high that your character is unable to jump. One thing that really struck me though is the player’s inability to jump. It didn’t take me long to learn them since it wasn’t really that complicated. Do you need to escape the planet? Do you need to find survivors? Is there some higher purpose as to why you were chosen to be brought to this island? All these questions stirring inside you, making you wonder what is really going on.Ĭontrols are fairly simple though and because it’s a game of discovery, the game gives you all the time in the world to discover how the control works. But moreover, the game doesn’t tell you what you need to do. It doesn’t even tell you what each button does but the settings page has the controls which you can map yourself. The game leaves you to discover everything it has to offer. The game doesn’t really hold your hand as you play. The whole game then becomes a quest to discover what happened to everyone else or if there are even any survivors. And yet the whole place seems like a ghost town. That by now you were supposed to be meeting a lot of other people. The holograph told you there were people in the area. You are then told to go down the path and into a house where someone else waits for you.īut something’s wrong. It’s a holograph of a man that claims to be the mayor of town. You follow the path to a holograph that is planted just down the path. A flash of blinding light later we find ourselves standing on a rocky path. Our protagonist gets drawn by it and it actually is something that goes right at them. A streak of bright light flashes by across the sky. You start off the game in a forest near a lake. This review is based on a review copy provided by Cyan Inc. But is there more to this game than meets the eye? Let us go indepth in to the world of Obduction. You are literally lost in a planet far far away. If there’s one word to describe Obduction I would say that the word that best describes it is lost.
