However, it becomes obvious that you need to inspect every single area with great detail, because you’ll otherwise miss out on clues which hold great significance. Many of the clues left me puzzled or gave me some kind of false positive. In fact, if you’ve ever watched the TV series ‘ Midsomer Murders’, then you’ll find many similarities, from the village to the detective work you’ll engage in. It’s truly as though you are participating in some kind of horror movie – where mystery is at the forefront. What you won’t find, however, is a single dead body. Things get even spookier as you begin to find blood splatters and other gruesome findings. It leaves you wanting to learn exactly why or where everybody has gone. Whilst it all looks amazing and relaxing, at the same time it also feels very eerie, with empty cars and abandoned buildings. It’s an experience which will flow at the pace you want it to.

It’s your job to digest these clues and ultimately play detective. However, this game leaves you slap bang in the middle of a deserted Shropshire village, based in the 1980’s, where the only noise that can be heard is the buzzing bees, swaying trees and singing birds.Īs you begin to explore the idyllic surroundings, you’ll notice that there are many clues scattered about the gorgeous setting. I can’t remember the last time a game was primarily based in the English country side, which is surprising since it’s the perfect environment for a game to be featured.

From every screenshot to each trailer, it looked totally awesome. If there was an indie game that I just couldn’t wait for, then it had to be Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture.
