With each new scene, more hints at what is really going on are uncovered as you start to learn who to trust and who not to. I want nothing more than my character to escape the wretched land he finds himself in but at the same time, I’m curious as to what it all meants and look forward to roaming the halls and discovering its grisly secrets. The story within TORMENTUM – DARK SORROW is pretty addictive thanks to the engaging gameplay and breathtaking artwork.
Like the puzzles, these are rather easy to find especially when the clickable objects sparkle. Away from puzzles, the game requires the player to find missing items or to bring certain items to a particular character or spot to unlock doors, find new objects and to generally progress the game. The puzzles include matching opposite pairs together, shifting tiles to make a picture, linking objects together from one end to another and placing objects in the correct sequence, among others. Even when no hints are found for the puzzles, a bit of patience, logical thinking and numerous attempts soon help you to solve the puzzle. The puzzle element of the game is pretty simple to fathom with the solution often nearby or in the adjacent rooms. The gameplay of TORMENTUM – DARK SORROW requires the player to find objects and solve puzzles, with the odd moral choice thrown in to spice things up and alter the game’s ultimate outcome. Just discovering each new scene is a pleasure of its own without even adding in the gameplay elements. TORMENTUM – DARK SORROW thrills with its stunning, nightmarish, surreal Giger-esque artwork which features disturbing torture devices, colourful characters and a post-apocalyptic-cum-cyberpunk environment. The arty style of the game reminds me of fellow point-and-click puzzler Machinarium due to its intricately detailed, hand-painted backgrounds. Polish publisher and developer OhNoo Studio have crafted a game of gothic beauty, curiosity and addiction in TORMENTUM – DARK SORROW. Will you be up to the challenge to fight for freedom? Along the way, you meet characters who may help you out in return for a favour as well as puzzles that will need solving and objects that will need finding to proceed to the next objective. Initially locked up, you manage to escape and roam the halls looking for a way out of the nightmarish fortress. Point-and-click dark fantasy adventure game, TORMENTUM – DARK SORROW, sees your character, a mysterious cloaked man, imprisoned in a cage alongside a rodent in a second cage, attached to a zeppelin heading towards a creepy castle.
