Observation

DEVELOPER: NO CODE • PUBLISHER: DEVOLVER DIGITAL • DUE: 2019 https://observationgame.com

Devolver Digital is known for bring some unique works to market as a publisher, and No Code’s Observation is looking to be high up on that list.

In it, you play the AI in control of an abandoned space station, and you’re tasked with helping an investigator find out what happened to the station’s vanished crew. It combines some of the claustrophobia and suspense of Alien: Isolation with a design and production style firmly grounded in modern space exploration.

“Let’s get real, we’re five to ten years away from the machines taking over,” said Devolver Digital CFO Fork Parker. “Observation is just going to give a taste of what it will be like to converge their minds with that of a CPU before it all happens suddenly for real.”

Funny lads, those Devolver guys.
