It´s been quite a while since i played a really good NES-like action/adventure game. But last night i found out about Thomas Happ Games “Axiom Verge” for the PS4.
And once i saw the game in action. It brought back a whole lot of NES memories to me. As “Axiom Verge” made me think about games such as “Contra“, “Batman” and “Metroid“.
Sadly enough though. I don´t own a PS4 at this time. So i sure hope that Thomas Happ will release “Axiom Verge” to other formats as well in the near future.
Because i would love to play Thomas game asap!
About Axiom Verge:
This is the action-adventure you’ve been waiting decades for. After a lab accident, a scientist awakens in a mysterious, alien world. Is this a distant planet? The far future? Or a complex virtual-reality computer simulation?
Plumb the recesses of a large, labyrinthine world in order to learn its secrets and uncover your role within it. Discover tons of weapons, items, and abilities, each with their own unique behaviors and usage. You’ll need your wits to find them all.
Combat bizarre biomechanoid constructs, the deadly fallout of an ancient war, and the demons of your own psyche. And finally, break the game itself by using glitches to corrupt foes and solve puzzles in the environment.
Life. Afterlife. Real. Virtual. Dream. Nightmare. It’s a thin line. It’s Axiom Verge.
