Rise of Insanity

Mechanics

In Rise of Insanity, players observe the action from the first-person perspective (FPP). The most important aspect of the gameplay is the exploration of places such as outdoor locations suffused with falling sunlight as well as grim insides of halls, and hospital wards. Multiple locations hide certain anomalies experienced by the main protagonist e.g. by gaining the ability to levitate. Moreover, on their adventures, players have to carefully investigate their surroundings in search for clues shedding a new light on the mystery they are trying to solve (such as the notes hidden in different drawers). Occasionally, one is bound to encounter relatively simple environmental puzzles.

Technical aspects

Rise of Insanity delivers decent visuals as well as the atmospheric soundtrack that manage to build up the tension. The game supports virtual reality headgear, however, it is not necessary for the game to work; in order to increase to immersion, the developers did not implement the usual movement system based on teleportation.
