Yeah, he would never wear a kilt, he's too hipster. I think it was just his sweater, or his jumper tied around his waist. Yeah, I saw him wearing a kilt on a mountain. Over on Spawn Point, our show for younger gamers for gamers on ABC3 on the weekend, we'll be looking at a Wii U game that's been getting a lot of buzz, The Wonderful 101. Next we will it live up to the hype? We finally get our hands on GTAV.Īnd our brown pants are at the ready for scares in Outlast. And it's our Guess the Game as it was created by Lucas Pope, the very same dev behind this week's Papers please. You were tasked with using your influence to paint Republia in a positive light through articles that you put to print. In it you were the editor in chief of a newspaper based in the glorious nation of Republia. Excellent and unique gameplay (It's a game about checking paperwork.So did you guess the game for this week? It was The Republia Times from 2012. Why would I ruin the fun? Besides, it isn't that hard!Īnyway, the game could have used a bit more content, such as, I dunno, a 'Challenge' mode, where you try to accomplish several challenges during the day, but it isn't really that troublesome. The player must carefully choose which stories to publish, as the government is holding the editors family hostage. Before that, though, you need to have a special code used to unlock it. The Republia Times was developed by Lucas Pope, as a warm up for Ludum Dare 23, a game jam held April 2023, 2012.

While I wouldn't mind if a few more tracks were added, these 3 tracks are great too.Īside from the interesting story mode, you have endless mode, where you check paperwork until you either get a game over or you get bored. Then there's 'Death Theme', which sounds very depressing and sad and then there's 'Victory Theme', which is played when you achieve either of the 3 good endings.

There's the main theme, which sounds exactly as you would imagine a Soviet-like track would sound.

Graphics are done in the retro pixelated style a bit similar to SNES (lack of better comparison), just more polished and way darker, with less colors, which suit this game very well, being that this is a thriller dystopian adventure.īelieve it or not, there are only 3 tracks in the entire OST and they are not bad, actually. Republia is a role playing game about politics, where you have to create your own discourse based on words highlighted in law cards and try to pass them to. With something new added each level/day, gameplay is fun, unique and entertaining all the way through.
