Photography puzzler Opus Prism Peak might be the rare game to actually pull its Studio Ghibli vibes off
Opus: Prism Peak is a charming photography adventure that captures the essence of Studio Ghibli aesthetics. The demo offers a brief yet intriguing glimpse into the life of Eugene, a middle-aged photographer on a quest with a spirited girl named Ren. Puzzles are solved through capturing images, merging exploration with a unique mechanic that feels fresh. While the 30-minute demo is short, it provides enough engagement to pique interest in the full game. The Dusklands are beautifully crafted, with vibrant visuals and a whimsical atmosphere. However, the simplicity of puzzles may not challenge seasoned players. Overall, the game balances nostalgia and innovation, making it a promising title for fans of narrative-driven experiences. Keep an eye on this one as it approaches its Steam release later this year. For more details, check out PC Gamer's full review. It's a delightful journey worth exploring.
