Lacuna gameplay
Lacuna comes from the German developer studio DigiTales and is set in a bleak future. In the sci-fi adventure game you slip into the shoes of Neil Conrad, a CDI agent who gets caught in a new case and follows the trail of a murderer. During the game you have to solve different puzzles and make decisions, it should be mentioned that the course of action is not always the same and your decisions can influence it, which makes the game even more interesting. You act like a real detective in the game and have to collect evidence, question witnesses or interrogate suspects. You will not receive any real feedback either, you have to come up with the solutions yourself. The game convinces with its charm in the noir style as well as the pixel optics and not to be forgotten is the soundtrack, which expresses the mood in the game very well. There are gentle jazz sounds in connection with electronic beats and overall this just fits perfectly into the game.
Conclusion on the game Lacuna
Lacuna is suitable for everyone who likes to solve puzzles and play pixel games. The look has something nostalgic and the soundrack creates the right atmosphere. Another very good idea is that proper policing has been brought into the game and decisions affect actions. The game was released in the standard and in the Save the world edition, which also contains the soundtrack. You can do both versions at Steam .
If you liked Lacuna then take a look at other games like solve it and Solve it 2.
