Our take on OPUS: The Day We Found Earth
The presentation centers on an emotional mission to save humanity, but the hands-on play is narrower: telescope-based star scanning and searching a spaceship for story-related objects. The adventure's appeal therefore rests on its narrative and discoveries more than on varied action systems.
What is OPUS: The Day We Found Earth?
In the year 160000 of the Galactic calendar, humanity has lost knowledge of Earth and faces a genetic crisis.
Emeth, a small robot, travels aboard a lone spaceship to locate the planet and recover samples of early human DNA. The game combines a story-driven puzzle adventure with space exploration. Players operate a deep-space telescope to scan stars, examine planets and nebulae, and search the ship for objects tied to its crew and mission. These discoveries reveal the history behind the journey. The adventure includes more than 20 pieces of soundtrack music and follows Emeth's promise to his creator as he searches for humanity's origin.
