Exographer is not your typical Metroidvania game. While most games in this genre focus heavily on combat, Exographer takes a different approach by incorporating science-based puzzles. Developed by Abylight Studios and SciFun Games, this upcoming title is the brainchild of CERN physicist and sci-fi author Raphael Granier de Cassagnac.
A Unique Gameplay Experience
In Exographer, players will have the opportunity to explore a strange and atmospheric environment as they uncover secrets left behind by an ancient civilization on an alien planetoid. The game features four distinct powers – Gluon Boots, Photon Sphere, Wedic Waves, and Zediacal Boxes – that players can combine to overcome obstacles and solve puzzles.
Unlike traditional Metroidvania games, Exographer offers a gameplay experience focused on exploration, puzzles, and platforming. With 6 different atmospheres, 20 levels, 9 scientists, and 139 hidden pictures to reveal, players are sure to stay engaged throughout the 15 hours of gameplay. Additionally, the soundtrack composed by Yann Van Der Cruyssen (known for his work on Stray and Cave Story) adds an extra layer of immersion to the game.
For fans of Metroidvanias looking for something new, Exographer presents a refreshing take on the genre. By blending science-based gameplay mechanics with atmospheric storytelling, the game sets itself apart from the combat-focused titles that dominate the genre. Whether you’re a science enthusiast or simply looking for a unique gaming experience, Exographer promises to deliver something special.
While the release date for Exographer is still uncertain, the promise of a science-infused Metroidvania adventure is enough to keep players excited. With its innovative gameplay mechanics, atmospheric setting, and captivating soundtrack, Exographer is shaping up to be a must-play title for fans of the genre. Keep an eye out for this intriguing game as it continues to develop in the coming months.
