Our take on Meridian 157: Chapter 1
The focus on investigation and riddles leaves little room for action or broader gameplay variety. Its chapter-based structure also means the experience is limited to an opening installment rather than a complete story.
What is Meridian 157: Chapter 1?
Investigate a strange weather event as David Zander, a forensic meteorologist trapped in an abandoned facility on a remote sub-Arctic island.
Explore the complex, gather clues, examine its history, and solve puzzles to move deeper into the island and investigate the secret connected to the 157th meridian. The game follows a point-and-click adventure structure with a spooky storyline, custom music, and sound effects. Difficult riddles can be approached with an in-game hint system. Chapter 1 includes a colour-blind mode for colour-based puzzles and supports eight languages: English, French, Russian, German, Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian. A free prologue is recommended before starting.
