In space nobody cares if you can’t solve a puzzle…unless of course you’re playing Nebulous.
Available to download right now on Xbox One, Nebulous puts you in charge of Commander Dash Johnson, an astronaut who need to escape a number of maze like levels. With gravity and momentum playing a key part in your success, you’ll need to quickly get a grasp on proceedings in order to save the Commander.
If you’re after a new puzzler, then Nebulous certainly looks like it should be worth some of your time. If you agree, then we advise you to make your way to the Xbox Games Store immediately and pick it up. It’s priced at $14.99 and unfortunately seems to be locked to North America at the moment. If it does ever arrive in the UK, then you can be sure we’ll tell you about it.
Game Description:
Nebulous is a physics-based puzzle game where you must help guide Commander Dash Johnson, a trapped astronaut, through maze-like levels, seeking the next wormhole to his eventual freedom. Arrange the pieces of the puzzle so that when he falls, gravity and momentum guide him safely (and probably painfully) to the end.
Every level has up to 5 playfields, arranged in a cube. Rotate the level and move the objects in each panel, then release Dash and hope he makes it through to the final wormhole! Deal with unreliable gravity, trampolines, conveyor belts, and other fun inconveniences.
– Solve a plethora of brain-teasing physics-driven puzzles
– Use trampolines, gravity machines, conveyor belts, space rocks, lasers, blocks, blocks, and more blocks (and other stuff)
– Guide a powerless astronaut through an absurdly horrific limbo and relish his misfortunes as he questions his sanity in fully voiced dialogue
– There’s no such thing as space madness
