My favorite part is how the game created this dark atmosphere and yet, it was still nothing too frightening. It is truly majestic in more than one way and I have to say, for a game that is exclusive on Google Stadia, this is a really great piece of entertainment.
There is so much to do in this game, from sneaking around to killing monsters to just solving basic puzzles. This is where the real game starts and the action meets adventure while also meeting puzzle games. It becomes clear that this is nothing like what can be labeled as normal and suddenly your character notices the missing cousin… Has she been hiding in school for the past month? Why? So many questions are at hand and you decide (obviously) to find her. Once you reach the end of the ride, the town has suddenly changed completely and there is not a single person in sight.īefore you know it, you try to find out what is going on in town and you are almost ambushed by monsters. But on your way down the cable car, you hit some sort of invisible wall. You head towards the cable car that can hopefully bring you back to town and out of the hands of the bullies. Trying to run away, you get stuck without your bike due to crashing during your escape. You are playing a little girl in search of her cousin Emily and while you are hanging up the posters, you are suddenly haunted by the local bullies. The game starts off rather unusual, with a warning about bullying and it becomes clear quite quickly why this was included. And the time-looping mysteries of The Sexy Brutale was one of Edwin Evans-Thirlwell’s favourite games from that year.Welcome to our review of GYLT, a Google Stadia exclusive game about bullying!įace your fears in GYLT, a haunting tale about bullying and childhood nightmares, as you help Sally navigate a creepy world to rescue her missing cousin Emily.
The stunningly lit island of Rime is one of the best non-violent games around. Tequila Works' last few games have been quite good too. I’ve admittedly not tried the game, but I’m looking to trying its creepy-sweet cartoon world when Gylt comes to consoles and Steam on July 6th. In true survival horror fashion, though, your flashlight will soon run out of batteries, forcing you to run, hide, and crawl back into the light.
Or you can maybe use that flashlight for - you know - illuminating dark spaces and whatnot. Or you could plunge the torch right into beasts’ backs for a quick stealth kill. Channelling one part of Alan Wake, combat has you aim your flashlight at enemies to burn through their shadow-fuelled armour. The rest of the horror-adjacent adventure is split between puzzles, and choosing between combat or stealth. The only problem is that she’s soon pulled into a shadowy alternate version of her own world where her fears manifest into creepy creatures: smiling mannequins and other gooey things, most of which represent her childhood experience with bullying. When her younger cousin mysteriously goes missing, Sally takes it upon herself to lead the search. Gylt casts you in the role of Sally, a little girl who lives in an old mining town. Tequila Works - the studio behind Rime and The Sexy Brutale - have now announced that their Stadia-exclusive adventure Gylt is heading to Steam and consoles on July 6th, 2023. When Google announced they were shutting down their streaming service Stadia, a bunch of exclusive games began to jump ship to other platforms.
