Akupara Games and Tmesis Studio's latest adventure game, Universe for Sale, is now available. Following on the heels of successful titles like The Darkside Detective series and Zoeti, this new release promises a unique and captivating experience.
Is the Cosmos Truly for Sale?
The game unfolds on a bizarre space station orbiting Jupiter, a location shrouded in acid rain and mystery. Expect quirky characters like witty orangutans working the docks and cultists bartering flesh for spiritual enlightenment.
The universe itself is for sale, thanks to Lila, a woman with the extraordinary ability to create universes from her very palm.
Beginning in the dilapidated mining colony shantytown, you play as the Master, a skeletal cultist from the Cult of Detachment. This intriguing character guides you through the ramshackle colony, filled with peculiar tea shops and other unusual establishments, eventually leading you to Honin's Tea House – Lila's shop. The mystery surrounding Lila unfolds as you shift perspectives between her and the Master.
Playing as Lila involves a captivating mini-game where you create universes by mixing and matching ingredients, resulting in mesmerizing visual worlds. The Master's journey delves into the philosophies of the Cult of Detachment and encounters with the Church of Many Gods.
The narrative unfolds gradually, prompting players to theorize about the underlying events. Each character, whether human, skeletal, or robotic, possesses a unique story, enriching the game's detailed world.
