VEREDA Escape Room Adventure Switch NSP Free Download GAMESPACK.NET Vereda takes a single player on a short (probably less than an hour) escape room puzzle adventure. You play a secret agent and your one goal is to recover a mysterious dossier. That mysterious dossier is locked behind doors and doors worth of increasingly curious puzzles. Pushing mysterious switches to make giant pillars in a back alley move, and rearranging cards on tables to unlock doors… It’s, interesting! Certainly a game to get the cogs moving. The most important thing to know about Vereda is that it is a passion project of solo game developer Chris, who got in touch with us at The Escape Roomer with an invitation to try the game. Since the lockdown, Chris has turned his hand to creating video games full time – from early point and click and 2D exploration games, Vereda is M9 Games’ first fully 3D escape room adventure for PC and (we hope soon) console. Presently, it can be downloaded on Steam (where I played) or on mobile devices. For the full and most up to date list, check the website here.

How was it? Vereda was… Decent! I don’t think it will be winning any awards, but as a game developer myself I admire the drive and creativity that has gone into pulling this fun experience together, and I hope it’s the first of many Chris and his studio creates. Take it from me, making a video game is REALLY HARD. It’s hard enough when you have a whole studio made up of narrative designers, puzzle/level designers (oh hey that’s my job), 3D and 2D artists, programmers, and so on. So when I heard that Chris was doing this all by himself, I had nothing but a huge amount of respect. In terms of visuals, I love the whole back-alley, dark and dirty, vintage vibe of video games like L.A. Noire, Overboard, or Inspector Waffles. For me, Vereda had that feel and it was very exciting to move through the unique spaces in search of puzzles and… A way out! After a cinematic sequence where a mysterious grey car drives through deserted street after deserted street, players spawn into a locked room with a few desks and scraps of paper on the desks.

Immersive backing soundtrack and effects to pull you into the adventure.

There are drawers to be unlocked, documents to read, and a big door tantalisingly waiting for me to find a key for it! Ooooh boy, I love a mysterious setup. The assets were largely store-bought, but it would be grossly unfair of me to call it an asset flip. No, everything that was put into the game was put in with purpose and felt right at home. I would have preferred to see original art, of course. The setting was ripe for something a little more unique, but the developer did well with the resources he had available to himself. The game came together visually consistently and definitely managed to create a dingy atmosphere of a seedy criminal underworld. There were many types of puzzles in Vereda, and largely they seemed to follow a trajectory of diegetic at the start, fizzling out towards neither mimetic nor diegetic at the end. But that’s not to say they weren’t fun! At the start of the game I began looking for tools like screwdrivers, or missing buttons in order to fix panels to unlock gates. Exciting! Towards the middle of the game, there were some riddles and colour puzzles and a very unique puzzle involving levers and giant pillars in the middle of an alleyway. The Entropy Centre

Which is… Well, I suspend my disbelief. As the game came to it’s climax, I encountered puzzles that I’d call neither diegetic nor mimetic, such as piecing together jigsaw puzzles to get puzzles that look like a pigpen cipher, to mysterious tarot cards being placed on an electrical panel, to an infuriatingly tricky picture slider puzzle, and something about phases of the moon.

okay I don’t want to sound harsh – because the puzzles were fun! But this is all to say I enjoyed the first half of the game a lot more, but as the game progressed the puzzles felt slightly more detached from the context of the game and felt like they were in there to provide unique things to solve. But in truth, I would have been happy to keep looking for broken panel buttons, or deciphering mysterious graffiti, because those made sense in the world. There’s no hard and fast rule about what puzzles a video game should have in them and of course, loads of fantastic games have puzzles in them that have no relation to the environment at all. But for me there was a slight disconnect between the puzzles and the environment that the creator had so carefully set up. In terms of difficulty, Vereda comes in on the easier side. It’s a short and sweet game that is possible to complete in around 20 minutes if you’re feeling speedy. 40 minutes if you play through comfortably with a glass of wine in your hand *glances down at hand. This puts it at about the same length of time a real life escape room takes, but this is a tiny, tiny fraction of the price. It Takes Two Switch NSP

after figuring out how to get out of your room, that is. it’s a 1st-person game, wasd to move, mouse looks around, left click to interact, right to zoom out. there are keys for jumping, crouching, diary, inventory, flashlight, except most of them don’t work, as there’s no such functionality in the game, and the diary remains empty all the way through. there’s an invert mouse toggle, sensitivity slider, controls are rebindable and controller is also supported, but movement is very floaty. what’s worse, alt+tab makes the cursor disappear, have to exit the current puzzle, menu or whatever to get it back. there are 10 sections, none of them should take too long because puzzles are mostly on the easy side. the whole thing can be done in about 2 hours, probably less. going near interactable things reveals icons and you’re also informed if something is missing. inventory items are used automatically to fill such gaps, unlock doors, etc. puzzles are a good variety and there is no timing, action or other nonsense, but there’s a reset button for them if you want to start over.

there’s also a really annoying camera switch after most puzzles. it’s not a pretty game by any stretch, not that it matters much. audio serves its purpose, nothing more. settings are decent on paper and available while playing as well, but separate volume settings are buggy, turning them all down still leaves some of the audio on and it’s impossible to lower the sound of the annoying thud when clicking a locked drawer or something. not sure why subtitles are optional if there are no voiceovers (there’s also a slider for voice) and english is the only available language, despite the arrows on the language select screen. there are resolution options and graphics detail settings from low to ultra, which is a bit vague, nothing to toggle separately, and vsync is badly needed, screen-tearing is insane. I normally don’t notice or care about it, but it was really annoying here. 3 save slots/profiles and manual saving is possible anytime, but only by overwriting the current save. not great but still better than many other games in the genre. autosaving may or may not happen and there is no chapter/location select. the whole thing is very amateurish, buggy and unpolished, even though this is the developer’s 6th similar game.
