The Fidelio Incident

The goal of the protagonist is to find his wife trapped somewhere inside the wreck of the plane, which is located on top of a mountain. Also, Stanley will have to remove any evidence that could allow a rescue team that is heading towards the crash site to identify the survivors or get to know about their secrets. Over time, the situation gets more and more complicated – what can be hardly explained, the island seems to be trying to make it harder for the protagonist to reach his destination.

Mechanics

The Fidelio Incident for PC is played from the first-person view. Exploration of wildlands covered with snow and collecting notes from Leonore's journal (which are scattered throughout the island) constitutes the core of the experience. The notes contain pieces of information concerning the characters' past. Apart from frozen, open areas, the player mainly visits an abandoned building site, as well as places which seem to be taking the protagonist to an alternative reality. Furthermore, the player often solves environmental puzzles – which is the main way of overcoming different obstacles in the game.

Additionally, the game features elements of survival – since the island is a very cold place, the player needs to make sure that Stanley can regularly get warm by a fire or thermal waters; otherwise, the screen gets gradually covered with more frost and when this process ends, the protagonist freezes to death.

Technical aspects

The Fidelio Incident for PC utilizes the Unreal Engine 4, which gave the basis for delivering high-quality visuals. Above all, the game impresses with its detailed environments, but one will also appreciate realistic lighting, as well as advanced particle effects.
