Lovecraft stories are about a passive subject that descends into madness, Call of the Sea tells the story of a resolute woman’s rise to sanity, in a story that revolves around the acceptance of one’s true nature. Call of the Sea is not only a thrilling 30’s pulp adventure but also a woman’s journey of self-discovery.Ĭall of the Sea is a Lovecraftian, but not a conventional Lovecraftian game either. Console-exclusive games from PlayStation Studios Horizon Forbidden West Explore distant lands, fight bigger and more awe-inspiring machines, and encounter astonishing new tribes as you return to the far-future, post-apocalyptic world of Horizon. Call of the Sea is a pure puzzling adventure, so theres no combat, theres nothing chasing you or trying to kill you its just you versus the island, tracking down your heroic hubby, who embarked upon a dangerous expedition, in a bid to find a cure for Norahs terminal disease. This way, the player experiments the initial fascination of Norah on the island, and the fear for the wellbeing of her husband as she progresses, as well as the bewilderment at the strange events and landscapes she discovers in the most secluded places of the island (and that are beautifully rendered by Unreal Engine 4). What strange secrets does it hold, and what might Norah unearth. Norah has crossed the ocean following the trail of her missing husbands expedition and finds herself on a lush island paradise - a nameless, forgotten place, dotted with the remnants of a lost civilization. We wanted to intertwine every puzzle to every emotion Norah feels and experiences while keeping it tightly tied to the narrative. It is 1934, in the far reaches of the South Pacific. All backed by a magnificent instrumental soundtrack composed by Eduardo de la Iglesia.īut Call of the Sea is not an ordinary puzzle game. Your journey will take you across and below the island, getting to know both it and Norah’s needs as a character. Those are hidden throughout the environment and need to be solved to uncover more of the game’s world and its story. Exploration of the lush island Nora finds herself on is driven by the game’s narrative and its puzzles.
