Just released, an interesting labour-of-love videogame from a former BioWare developer. Old Gods Rising is a single-player Windows game…
Old Gods Rising is a first-person adventure mystery. Duvall describes it as “what would have happened if H.P. Lovecraft had been running the Firewatch team.
In which you wander around an eerily deserted university campus and grounds. As you do, these days. I’ve no idea what Firewatch is but Old Gods sounds like it’s in the mould of the British game of a few years ago called Everyone’s Gone to the Rapture, but here with a scholarly and Lovecraftian layer. Old Gods is said to take about four hours for hardened three-games-a-week puzzler gamers, or perhaps three evenings for those who only play three games a year.
As with all large new PC games, it may be advisable to wait for a few bugfix patches before playing.
