The French team DigixArt Studio has been focusing on experiments since the beginning of its activity. The situation is no different in the case of Tides of Tomorrow. We're talking about an adventure game, based on an asynchronous multiplayer mode, in which players have to deal with the consequences of decisions made by their friends or favorite streamers.

Gameplay

In Tides of Tomorrow we watch the action from a first-person perspective (FPP).

Adventure in the water world

The game takes us to the oceanic planet Elynd, grappling with the effects of flooding and a deadly threat known as plasticization. We take on the role of a character who, in search of a cure, must face numerous dangers.

The adventure leads us through both islands and floating platforms, which we explore on foot, as well as through water reservoirs, which we cross using motorboats and scooters. While exploring Elynd, we carry out the tasks assigned to us and gather resources that enable us to survive. The game also gives us the opportunity to visit the depths of the sea or even take part in spectacular chases.

TheGamer: 3.5 / 5 by Harry Alston

I enjoyed my 15 or so hours with Tides Of Tomorrow, but I won’t be replaying it. It’s a game that you could definitely replay if you vibe with it, because there are plenty of different choices that you - and whoever goes before you - can make, but I feel like I’ve got my fill of the world, and was generally satisfied with the outcome of my narrative. Even if I heard most of it before I got there.

Gfinity: 7 / 10 by Andrés Aquino

Overall, Tides of Tomorrow stands on its own as a very interesting narrative-driven game that will take you roughly 10-15 hours to complete on your first playthrough (there are several endings based on the choices you, or the person you're following, make). The Story-Link is a neat novelty, but the concept doesn't hit as hard as I'd have liked.
