Roy Guarder, inventeur et scientifique, s'aventure dans The Cursed Lands pour percer les origines de la vie, mais la mort le surprend et il se réveille dans un au-delà foisonnant. Ce RPG d'action-aventure indie mêle l'esthétique classique Gameboy à une évolution des visuels 8-bit noir et blanc vers une 16-bit en full couleur. Les joueurs explorent un vaste monde non linéaire, truffé de quêtes secondaires profondes et de multiples fins possibles.
La mort active un mécanisme unique : loin d'un simple game over, Roy accède à l'Afterlife Hub, un royaume coloré où l'on fouille, récolte des indices et discute avec les défunts - pour parfois les ramener à la vie. Les joueurs optent souvent pour un suicide volontaire afin d'y entrer, jonglant entre mondes des vivants et des morts pour avancer. Les amateurs de RPG exploratoires aux réflexions philosophiques sur la mort y trouveront un cœur de gameplay captivant.
Two Brothers is an Action Adventure game that features a classic Gameboy aesthetic.
Roy Guarder, inventor, scientist, and philosopher, is on an expedition to discover the origins of life. This quest has brought him to "The Cursed Lands," a stretch of land so dangerous and shrouded in mystery that it hasn't been explored in over 700 years. When Roy finds what he's looking for, he is met with a terrible fate. Roy no longer finds himself a living man. He is greeted with a world of colors he never believed could have existed! One obsession leads to another and Roy begins to walk the line of life and death - sometimes intentionally ending his own life - just so he can see this land of beauty and color again.
But something is strange: Why is Roy the only man who can cross so easily between the worlds of the living and the dead? What has given him this unique ability? How will he reconcile the existence of an afterlife he never believed could even exist?
▪ Explore a vast non-linear world and story with multiple endings, and deep side quests!
▪ Take the game world from black and white 8bit to full color 16bit!
What makes Two Brothers unique:
Two Brothers takes a long hard look at death in video games... when the player is killed in combat or triggers a deadly trap, instead of being greeted a familiar GAMEOVER screen, the player finds himself in what we call the "Afterlife Hub".
This realm of the dead is a colorful and mysterious place where the player can explore, find clues, and interact with characters who have passed on in the games story... sometimes even bringing some of them back from the dead.
When the player wants to return to gameplay, they can jump from the edge of the heavens and get back in to the action and exploration!
This mechanic is vital to the gameplay, as sometimes interacting with the dead is just as important as interacting with the living... this feature often requires the player intentionally ending their session in a game over, just to cross over to the other side.
