Heal: Pocket Edition, an intense and unpleasant puzzle, is released for iOS and Android - solo developer

The solo developer Jesse Makkonen has published some of the best horror games of recent years, so any new release from him is a reason to celebrate. Heal: Pocket Edition is his latest edition and tells the story of an elderly man who suffers from dementia.

While it seems to be a considerable deviation from his previous work externally, it seems to transmit the intensity and the escalating discomfort of the DISTRAINT series. His world is very abstract and is based on pure nightmare logic, which serves as a possibility to explore the state of the protagonist.

Characters of a certain age are very rare in the world of video games, but that is slowly changing with the publication of titles such as The Nursing of the Wind and now Heal. These are stories that can be conveyed and explored as meaningful as everyone else.

You will spend your time here to solve puzzles that turn around items that are distributed throughout the house of the protagonist. Watches, phones and other everyday household items will be too complex puzzles that apply.

It is said that there is only very little dialogue or obvious representation, with the history of the man instead unfolded by environmental storytelling and the dark atmosphere of the game.

Harry's review of Distraint 2 was pretty bright and called it "a clever adventure, a shattering experience and occasionally pretty funny, before he gave him a strong silver rating. If you want a game that "she attracts, she chews and then prodes it," Be sure to try it out.

Heal: Pocket Edition is now available from the available AppStore, Google Playund Steam. It is a premium title for $ 4.99. In particular, I am a big fan of Distraint 2, so I will definitely try Heal as soon as I can.
