News::Review: The Starship Damrey

"This game contains no tutorials or explanations. Part of the experience is to discover things for yourself."


Thus reads the disclaimer when you fire up a new game of The Starship Damrey, Level-5's atmospheric sci-fi adventure and first of the Guild02 trilogy. Those words are meant to evoke memories of classic point-and-clicks, of scouring every corner of the room to find the tools you need to advance, of the solution eluding you until that blessed "Eureka!" moment. Here is a game, you think, that seeks to defy modern conventions and allow us to solve problems on our own.


What a bold promise. Too bad the game doesn't live up to it.
