Akupara Games and Tmesis Studio have unveiled their latest adventure game, *Universe for Sale*. Akupara Games, known for intriguing titles like *The Darkside Detective* series and *Zoeti*, continues to captivate gamers with this new release.
Is the Universe Really for Sale?
Set on a space station orbiting Jupiter, *Universe for Sale* immerses players in a bizarre bazaar enveloped in acid rain and mystery. Here, witty orangutans manage the docks, and cultists trade flesh for enlightenment. The universe on sale is the creation of Lila, a woman with the extraordinary ability to create universes from the palm of her hand.
As the game begins, you land in the shantytown of a mining colony, embodying the Master, a skeletal figure and a member of the Cult of Detachment. The setting is both eerie and captivating. You navigate through the colony, filled with rickety tea shops and other oddities, until you reach Honin’s Tea House, Lila’s establishment. As you progress, you alternate between Lila's and the Master's perspectives, unraveling Lila's mysterious nature.
Playing as Lila involves a mini-game where you mix and match ingredients to craft mesmerizing visual universes. As the Master, you delve into the philosophies of the Cult of Detachment and interact with the Church of Many Gods. The narrative deepens as you explore, with each character, whether human, skeletal, or robotic, offering a unique story. The world is rich with details, inviting you to explore every corner.
The Art Is Amazing
The art style of *Universe for Sale* is a standout feature, characterized by hand-drawn illustrations with a dreamlike quality. From the rain-soaked alleyways to the vibrant universe creations, every scene pulses with life. If you're interested in experiencing this visually stunning game, you can find it on the Google Play Store.
