Or as I’ve always said, all of the things you would expect from a semi-decent camping trip.
Obduction starts out with your character dropped into an idyllic, picturesque campsite, complete with a peaceful lake, hiking trails, dense forest trees, mountain vista’s, oh, and constant shooting stars that might be meteors hijacking humans back to an alien planet. Sounds easy right? Keep reading to see if it succeeds. Almost twenty-five years later, Cyan Worlds is trying to catch lightning in a bottle for a second time.
Each solved puzzle led you deeper into its web until you couldn’t wait to see what was next. Are you old enough to have played the original in its heyday, or did you play any one of its million re-releases? If so, then you know the game dropped you into this beautiful, yet mysterious world with little explanation and little setup. A regular point-and-click, puzzle-solving juggernaut. In the mid-nineties, Myst was a bona fide phenomenon. In fact, I believe that’s what they call a ‘big deal’, in industry jargon. With the likes of Doom and Sim City 2000 on the market at that time, that’s no small feat. There was a time when Cyan World’s breakthrough title Myst was the best-selling computer game around. Obduction is the latest title from Cyan Worlds, a game developer that is over thirty years old.
