描述
Encounter belongs to this family of games, but adapted to a more modern audiencewho find pure text adventures a bit too difficult to get immersed into.
8 bit aesthetics?
There are quite a few modern games embracing the retro aesthetics,some mimicking the pixel artstyle of the NESconsole, some choosing to simulate the low definition texturesof the original PlayStation, but in most case this is a stylistic choice and under the hood you will find a modern game engine such as Godot, Unity, Unreal, Game Maker, etc...
Encounteris doing the exact opposite of that: It is a real 8bitgame for the 1984 Oric Atmospersonal computer running on a 1mhz6502 processor with 64 kilobytesof ram, loaded from a 360 kilobytes3" floppy disk.
Design wise, the game is attemptingto be as modern and advanced as possible given the technical limitationsof the platform in terms of performance, resolution, number of colors, lack of modern input peripherals, and storage space.
Note: This Steam version of the game allows you to play on PC thanks to an Oric emulator called Oricutron, you can find the actual game in the install folder
Is it actually good?
The game was reviewed positively in both BrewOtaku and CAAD magazines, and most of the people who tried it really liked it as well!
So maybe give it a try? After all it's cheap, and you can refund if you don't like it.
Also, the game runs just fine on the Steam Deck, and probably just fine on Linux using a recent version of Wine.
The story
In the game you revisit the memoriesof a private investigator who in September 1982 was charged to locateand freea kidnapped teenager. Visually the game is inspired by the 'Noir 'comic books and presents visuallythe result of all your actions - be they good or bad -.
The game area
You startthe game on the market place: This is where you parked your car and where you need to go back to finishthe mission successfully.
The map is relatively simple and is made of multiple locations (about 50 of them) connected logically on a NORTH, SOUTH, EAST and WESTfashion.
The possible directionsare indicated at the center of the screenwith a four directions arrow pattern.
When it is possible to go UPor DOWN(for example by climbing down a hole or moving up stairs), two additional symbolsappear, indicating the possibility to move in that direction.
To make the game feel a little bit more dynamic you can also use the arrow keysof your keyboard: The UP arrowwill move to the north, DOWNto the south, LEFTto the westand RIGHTto the east. Additionally, CTRL+UPwill allow you to climb upand CTRL+DOWNwill allow you to climb down.
Keyboard Controls
The game is played with the keyboardusing simple text commandsas well as a few keyboard shortcutsfor convenience. The list of commands can be shown in the game at any time by entering the HELPcommand.
Note: Quite a few of these commands are synonyms and were added because it felt just right. As far as the game is concerned, TAKEand GETare doing the same thing, so are DROPand PUT, FRISK and SEARCH, or LOOK, EXAMINEand INSPECT. If you feel like to FRISKthe FRIDGEor SEARCHthe THUG, that's all right!
Simplified Controls
The version 1.1.0 of the game introduced a secondary control scheme only using the four direction arrows as well as the space bar. These control also work with legacy type four direction joysticks, but also just fine on the Steam Deck where you can use any of the directional controls (dpad, analog sticks, ...) to select options and the (A) button to select.
Items
As in most similar games you will encounter quite a few interactableelements - "items" - which you will be able to EXAMINE. Some will be possible to take with you or modify, or even combine with other items, while a few others are impossibleto TAKEand can only be inspected (like the CHURCHor the WELL).
Inventory and Scene Objects
Above the command prompt in the blue area is a list of all the items present in the locationyou are standing in, while the black area under is your inventory, where all your possessions are located.
When you TAKEitems, they move from the location to the inventory, and the opposite happens when you DROPitems.
If you are not quite sure about the actual name of the item, you can press the SHIFTkey to highlight the important part of the name, like for example CABINETin "a medicine cabinet" or MORTARin "a mortar and pestle"
Note: Most items will stay where you left them, with a few exception like liquids which may drain away or evaporate
Commands
To successful solve the case you will most definitely have to use of many of these items.
Here are a few of the commands you can use.
Singleobject commands:
INSPECT: This will often give relevant (or not) information on the subject.
TAKE: It will attempt to take the item and put it in your inventory. For that to happen you need to have enough room, and in some cases the game will ask you to specify the name of a container: You can't simply take water or sand in your bare hands, you'll need a bag, box, bucket, etc...
DROP:The item will be left in the room where you are
THROW: This is a very contextual command, in most cases it will do the same thing as DROP, but for some items (like a rock, a knife, a ball, ...) it may actually do something else if you are at a relevant location
USE: Typically used for things like KEYS, devices, buttons, etc...
Dualobjects commands:
COMBINE, followed by two item names will be used to craft new items. For example if you COMBINE BREAD BUTTER you will create a delicious slice of bread covered in butter. Please note that the order does not matter, so COMBINE BUTTER BREAD will also work
Puzzles
Encounter is not a puzzle game, but it features a few obstacles you need to solve in order to progress. Most of the obstacles have more than one solution, and generally speaking the more elegant the solution is, the more points you will get for it.
If you managed to pass an obstacle using lethal force, know that there was most probably an alternative solution not involving any form of violence. Each of the alternate solution unlock one of the possible achievements!
Also please note that there are many clues in the images, so inspecting items and scenes can hint about things you should consider doing - or not doing! -
Crafting
The game requires you to build some new items from what can be found in the world, and by reading the various documents (books, notes, etc...) present in the game, you should be able to figure out all the necessary parts and how to assemble them.
Achievements and high scores
The game contains 48 possible achievements, about two thirds of them can be unlocked by completing the game. To unlock the remaining achievements you will have to try alternative solutions, but also find all the different ways you can fail to complete the mission: A game over may bring you closer to this objective!
Time limit
The game has a time limit of two hours (in game hours) to complete the mission.
The timer on the right of the screens ticks down in real time second by second, but moving around, inspecting items, crafting, etc... takes some time, so in practice a single play through will take about 30 to 45 minutes before the "out of time" game over triggers.
The game will warn you half-way when one hour has elapsed.
