Indie developer Stroboskop and horror publisher DreadXP are excited to bring a glorious return to form to the highly acclaimed Sylvio franchise with a new third entry, Sylvio: Black Waters. Nominated for Best Original Game at the 2015 TIGA Awards and listed as one of the best horror games by both PC Gamer and Rock, Paper, Shotgun, the original Sylvio captured the hearts of many with its rich narrative and engaging puzzles, and a new sequel is set to bridge the gap between past and future in a mysterious new setting on July 25.
Sylvio: Black Waters is a first-person exploration adventure with a horror atmosphere from the creator of Sylvio and Sylvio 2. You are alone in an unfamiliar land eerily similar to Earth, but somehow not quite right. You discover a mysterious device that seems to let you listen to the spirits of those who once inhabited this place. The device picks up the voice of a man named Lee, who claims to be the last survivor on this planet. A trail of clues leads you into the pitch darkness at the heart of this world, where answers about the past, and your possible future, may lie.
This new entry brings fresh mechanics in a physics-defying and puzzle-filled experience that promises to thrill both followers of the series as well as new players looking for a standalone chilling adventure. Uncover the mysteries of how this strange new world came to be and walk amongst the oddest places you’ve ever seen in a completely new Sylvio thrill that welcomes everyone (as much as dark pits and lost souls can be welcoming, that is).
Features:
- Physics-bending gameplay in a world of changing gravity
- Decipher audio-based puzzles to hear the voices of the past
- Decode video recordings to uncover clues
- Defend yourself from the aggressive dead with air-powered weaponry
- 4-6 hours of gameplay
Sylvio: Black Waters launches on July 25 on Steam for Windows PC and will retail for $12.99 USD / £10.99 GBP / €12.79 EUR.
