Subaeria

Game mechanics

Protagonist of Subaeria for PC, PS4 and XONE isn’t a super-heroine, nor can she use any weapon. This means players must use their wits to get through locations of the underwater city. Developers gave us a little helper in form of a small Drone (its skills are developed as the game progresses), which can e.g. take control of mechanical enemies called The Cleaners. What’s more, both their behavior and parts of surroundings can be used during adventure, and all of these features are necessary to manipulate foes into fighting each other.

Technical aspects

Visuals of Subaeria aren’t breathtaking, but considering how small of a project it is, the game looks rather good. We observe the world form top-down perspective, with all characters and objects being three-dimensional models. Gameplay is accompanied by various effects, e.g. explosions after eliminating enemies and decent light play.
