Creaks brings surreal puzzle adventure to Xbox One, PS4, Switch and PC

It looks surreal. It sounds surreal. It plays pretty surreal. In fact, Creaks is utterly surreal. But chances are that once our full review of Creaks on Xbox One is up and live, it’ll also be confirmed that it is one of those puzzle adventure you just have to play.

Available to purchase and download right now on Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch and PC, Creaks has been created by the same Amanita Design team that were previously behind the brilliant Machinarium – and if you’ve played that game, you’ll kind of understand how Creaks has come about.

Albeit working a totally different angle to the game that has come before it, Creaks has the same high quality production values integrated in. That is emphasised immediately through the brilliant visual design – in particular the various paintings you’ll tumble upon – but is complemented well by a super sound design too.

Priced at £17.99, Creaks will have you guiding a young man through a strange, mysterious mansion, one that is populated by some weird bird-like folk. Whether they are dangerous or not is up to you to find out, but you’ll only be able to do that by working your way through a series of interconnected puzzles; the completion of which will enable you to progress on to the next oddity.

The vast majority of these tests of mind will boil down to moving your young hero through and across multiple platforms, utilising pressure plates, hitting switches and more. But there will be inhabitants of this mansion which are looking to make your life tricky, and only be making the most of light, will you find success.

Further information about how Creaks plays out will be delivered in full in our upcoming review of the Xbox One edition of the game in the days ahead. Keep an eye out for it. But in the meantime, the Xbox Store will sort you out with the usual Xbox One download. If you’re looking to play the game on PS4, Nintendo Switch or PC via Steam, you know what to do.

Make sure you take in the launch trailer below too. It’ll drop a little insight into just how surreal this adventure is.

Game Description:

The ground starts shaking, light bulbs are breaking – and something rather unusual is happening right behind the walls of your very room. Equipped with nothing but wit and courage, you slowly descend into a world inhabited by avian folk and seemingly deadly furniture monsters. From the creators of indie classics Machinarium and Samorost comes Creaks, a new puzzle adventure game that delights the senses with its hand-painted visuals, precise animation, eerie sounds, and an eclectic original score from Hidden Orchestra. Proceed at your own pace at figuring out the solutions to dozens of carefully designed puzzles, explore the mansion for hidden paintings and uncover the great secret.

An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore.
