Gray Matter 2011 PC Game Preview
Mysterious, magical, fascinating, intriguing … A captivating adventure of science supernatural.
Despite the wait, the new work of the creator of the Gabriel Knight series has come to become one of the best adventure games of recent years. Why? For your script, characters, and a succession of puzzles worthy of the great adventures of yesteryear. If you love the genre stop reading, buy and play.
We had to wait more than necessary and the development of Gray Matter 2011 has been, at best, torturous, but is already among us. The new work of the creator of the magnificent series Gabriel Knight, Jane Jensen, arrives to delight us with another huge story in which aptly combines neurobiology paranormal elements, making up a story that will keep you glued to the game until the end. And no wonder, since Jensen demonstrates once again that when absorbing storytelling is all a teacher, besides the fact that pulse remains strong when presented to a large cast of main characters capable of engaging in their experiences, it is not easy. All this, coupled with a very traditional game but with new aspects, which leaves us with one of the best adventure games of recent years and a great end to one of the most rewarding years for the genre.
The mysterious mansion Dr. Styles marked our starting point in this great adventure that blends the supernatural with science.
A great mystery to solve
Gray Matter’s story takes us to the city of Oxford and vicinity. And although at first the story may seem unattractive, little by little we will feel more and more involved in it, whether in the footsteps of Sam, who as “stowaway” pretend to be a student at Oxford as he investigates a mysterious organization of magicians , or through the eyes of the unfortunate Dr. Styles, who from his home neurological experiments performed to gain some inner peace. The important thing here is that the humanity of the characters is so well recreated it is impossible not to be captivated by the story written by Jensen.
And is that even in the little details you realize the great work he has accomplished as a screenwriter. For example, when we control it Sam logical question is the significance of the paintings or sculptures on the mansion of Dr. Styles, a response we will get if after examining these same objects with this character. Also, the tone of the adventure varies slightly depending on who is the protagonist, being for the young research moments on the field, that is, speak to several characters, explore different locations, combine inventory items … while living situations Styles more pauses in the pause to read documents on a computer, or solving complex puzzles based on logic.
What has not changed is the feeling of being in a classic adventure like those of yesteryear. The gameplay challenges posed by both the usual: talk to other characters by a simple radial menu with the questions we want to make (in this case, ideas), and collect various environmental elements to combine with each other or use them for other items from stage. The good news is that the vast majority of puzzles with which we will run will be solved by pure logic puzzles find ourselves not too far-fetched, it does not mean, though, that we are confronting a simple affair to beat.
Gray Matter 2011 commitment to aspects of the purest detective investigation, which involves collecting a large number of documents, letters or books that we read carefully to find clues that allow us to move forward. And here we find one of the main attractions of the adventure, because everything is so real and logical, that whenever we manage to overcome a challenge we will feel satisfied with ourselves for having done not by chance, but through our ability to reason and figure tracks.
Abracadabra
Gray Matter where a present a novel aspect is in part related to magic tricks that may develop Sam. No wonder, as we said at the beginning of the article, this is a street magician who seeks to enter the most prestigious club and enigmatic wizards who, interestingly, has an office in Oxford. So one of the first sites to be placed on the city will, in fact, a magic shop affiliated with this network, which will pose many challenges we must overcome the wizards to enter the club and also provide us all items needed to make our own magic tricks. But right now you might be wondering why we do magic tricks?
Beautiful and classic
A graphic level, Gray Matter PC is a fantastic adventure puzzling because it presents a detail-packed environments and a degree of beauty in every stroke that will make us gawk see, for example, the magnificence of the cathedral of Oxford, the library, or simply the great mansion of Dr. Styles. The characters also have a very remarkable design, although the level of detail is not so high and the animations are somewhat bracing. But overall, as we say, this adventure not only catches us for their great script and impressive narrative, but also by the mystery that exudes every one of the places we visit. In addition, we are glad that many of the elements in the environment once we have examined, give rise to a closeup of them to try to find hidden clues. Or being able to get into someone else’s computer and view documents, take notes and books for clues, or to navigate the phone menu, which in this case playing a major role by forcing us to record phone numbers and then to call.
The user interface is also very good, with particular emphasis on its simplicity. And every element of the environment only gives rise to an action, so there will be objects that we can only discuss with the pointer (this takes the form of an eye) or get them (a hand). This simplicity is also transferred to the inventory, because it can examine the objects, of course, or put in the hands of Sam for use with other elements of the environment. Simple and straightforward, as you can see.
Finally, we do not stop talking about the great paragraph sound of Gray Matter, which combines melodies of mystery with the more melancholy or lively, depending on who stars in the chapter concerned. Also the English dub is quite good, although we would have liked the voices, like the texts, were also in our language.
Assessment of Gray Matter 2011 PC Game
Mysterious, intriguing and fascinating. An adventure game like those before it grabs you from start to finish, thanks to a skillfully narrated story line so we can only say “bravo Jane Jensen.” The characters, puzzles and has been bet so heavily on research in the traditional sense of the word, supposed to relive the adventure of those we thought and we would not see again. And while it is true that the game too much sin to be very classic in its gameplay, and some of the puzzles are very picky in regards to observe millimeter scenarios broadly Gray Matter is one of those adventures that no lover of the genre should miss. More, if possible, if above shows fun, innovative aspects such as magic tricks.
