Our take on Rauniot
Its focus on puzzles, scenes, and atmosphere leaves less room for action-oriented play. The emphasis on a specific Finnish setting also narrows its appeal for players seeking broader science-fiction or fantasy worlds.
What is Rauniot?
Rauniot is an isometric point-and-click adventure set in Northern Finland after a massive natural disaster in 1975.
Civilization has fractured under conflict, pollution, and dwindling resources, while surviving groups work to provide food, clean water, medicine, electricity, and knowledge. Players follow Aino, who undertakes dangerous journeys and tasks connected to her community. The game includes more than 70 detailed scenes and puzzles with varying levels of difficulty, as well as differences in puzzle order. An in-game notebook records information during the adventure. Finnish voice acting, including a North Finland accent, contributes to the game’s melancholic local setting.
