Once Upon a Time in Roswell

Once Upon a Time in Roswell, also known as The Peterson Case, is the first game of the British studio Quarter Circle Games, founded in 2015. This is a survival horror inspired by the Roswell incident..

Story

In 1947 in the state of New Mexico, USA an incident took place in Roswell, the most famous "UFO catastrophe" in history. The events presented in Once Upon a Time in Roswell refer to this event. Players take on the role of an experienced detective Franklin Reinhardt, who has to solve the mystery of the disappearance of a family living in a house near the place where the alien spacecraft alledly crashed.

Mechanics

Gameplay in Once Upon a Time in Roswell is observed in FPP. While playing, we explore an abandoned residence, where strange things happen. Upon arriving at the place, the detective quickly discovers that there is an extraterrestrial form of life in the home, so our main task is to get to know its intentions and find the lost family. Gameplay reminds us of what we saw in Resident Evil VII: Biohazard, released at the beginning of 2017. Franklin will sweep through the rooms in search of answers. Along the way, however, he has to solve puzzles, sneak, and from time to time fight enemies he encounters or save himself by escaping.

Technical aspects

Once Upon a Time in Roswell is a dark three-dimensional game, whose atmosphere is built by the minimalist sound setting, which intensifies the anxiety accompanying the visit to the property. What is interesting, during the game we leave the residence and go to other places as well.
