Blind Descent

Starting from the mid-second decade of the 21st century, the survival genre has become quite crowded. Despite this, there is no shortage of developers trying to gain their market share. Among them, there was a place for Pokuch, an independent team from Turkey, and its debut project titled Blind Descent.

Gameplay

In Blind Descent we watch the action from a first-person perspective (FPP).

Ecosystem in Martian depths

The game takes us deep beneath the surface of Mars, where according to the vision presented here, a rich ecosystem is supposed to be hidden, in which we are not welcome guests (at least not at first). While exploring vast underground areas, we not only fight for survival, but also explore alien fauna and flora, using the help of an AI assistant who supports us in analyzing the Martian environment.

Main activities

We mainly engage in exploration, learning about the animals inhabiting the vast caves and the plants growing in them, as well as gathering valuable resources. These last ones serve us both for crafting tools and other useful items, as well as for building the base.

Construction of the base, crafting and mutations

Due to the fact that our headquarters is a kind of "foreign body" in the Martian landscape, we must take care of its maintenance, protecting it from vines, fungi and other organisms wanting to take it over. Climbing equipment is available among the survival tools and it allows us to reach high places.
