Horizon Chase

A racing game for mobile devices, developed by Aquiris Game Studio and inspired by the 16-bit classics of the genre such as the Lotus series, Outrun, and Top Gear. In Horizon Chase, the action is observed from a camera placed behind the car, and our task is to complete subsequent tracks as quickly as possible. We have several vehicles of various performance at our disposal. With them, we race on deserts, city outskirts, and motorways. The driving model is purely arcade, while the gameplay is very fast-paced. Visually, the developers combined the camera behavior and track design from classical two-dimensional racing games with fully three-dimensional objects in the form of angular, slightly textured models. The final result presents itself quite curiously — it blends modernity with clear references to the classics. The game features a soundtrack created by Barry Leitch who composed music for the several aforementioned productions.

During turn-based missions, the player's subordinates gain experience that can be spent to unlock new, useful abilities.

Ghosts of Memories
October 16, 2015

An unusual logic game developed by a Polish studio Paplus International. The developers were inspired by the popular Monument Valley. The plot of Ghost of Memories tells the story of a lone adventurer who acquires an ancient scepter during one of his travels. The artifact speaks with the voice of a woman trapped inside the scepter’s head. She offers to unlock the powers dormant in the item if the hero decides to free her. Thanks to its power, the traveler can manipulate reality and create inter-dimensional portals, which help him face encountered difficulties and various traps. During the game, we observe the situation from an isometric view, while the player focuses on solving environmental riddles that involve various mechanisms and physical phenomenon, such as optical illusions. The developers prepared a relatively small selection of levels (15 available); however the level of detail and advancement of the encountered puzzles should outweigh even this downside.

Forest of Sleep
cancelled
Adventure, A Fairy Tale, Indie Games, Singleplayer.
An adventure game from Eda Keya and Twisted Tree Games studio, taking by the handful from Russian fairy tales and legends. Forest of Sleep tells a story of three children on a journey through a land filled with magical creatures. Our heroes must traverse enchanted forests, visit bizarre kingdoms, fulfill unusual requests from NPCs and sing many songs during campfire nights. There are no arcade elements in the game, so we mainly explore and solve puzzles, while our interactions with NPCs and items play a major role, dynamically shaping the story. What makes Forest of Sleep stand out the most, though, is the lack of typical narration and dialogues, as well as its unique visuals that are reminiscent of children's books.
