Is The Void worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Players who want chamber-based exploration with secrets, twists, and turns
- Players who enjoy resource management tied to world reactions and creature behavior
- Action-adventure players interested in drawing-based actions and unusual characters
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking straightforward actions may hit a wall when effects depend on both the drawn sigil and the Color used
- Players who prefer a stable world may bounce off Color changing both the player and the surrounding Void
- Players looking for combat without resource or relationship systems may find the Sisters, Brothers, and Color mechanics too central
Our take on The Void
The bounce point arrives when Color stops being a simple pickup and becomes the basis for major decisions. Players must weigh immediate strength against more aggressive predators while learning which drawn sigils produce the desired effects.
What is The Void?
Explore the Void, a grey limbo divided into 29 chambers and inhabited by Sisters, Brothers, and other strange creatures.
Gather the scarce resource called Color by growing it in gardens, hunting for it, or mining it in different environments. Drawing sigils performs important actions, with results determined by both the sigil and the Color used. Color also changes the player and the surrounding world: accumulating Red can increase strength while making predators more aggressive. Feed Color to the Sisters to unlock their hearts, follow or defy the Brothers, and fight gigantic foes when they resist. Actions have effects throughout the Void as the player searches for a way out of its cycle.
