Our take on Bodhi 'n' Friends
Its defining detail is the setting: a former developer spends a week inside his revived game studio, investigating its history while confronting the Friends connected to it.
What is Bodhi 'n' Friends?
Play as Thomas, a former programmer and game developer who returns to Monster Crunch Interactive four years after the studio closed.
Its co-founder has rebuilt the studio and invited Thomas to discuss a new game project. Across 12 levels, investigate the studio, learn about its founders and the origins of the Friends, and encounter creatures that must be fought. Weapons and other items become available at points during the adventure.
Thomas’s phone provides a flashlight, messages, battery information, and the time through the Travel Utility app; chargers can be found around the studio. Game discs are also placed throughout the building and can be played on the console in the QA Room. The game includes story and lore, multiple endings, varied Friends, and physical wear during combat encounters.
