"Penumbra's physics-based puzzles and close-quarters combat involve mouse movements that imitate in-game actions. Naturally, opening doors and drawers, twisting knobs, and swinging pickaxes in the first-person horror game's mysterious mines is more like actually opening drawers, et cetera in an actual mysterious mine with Falcon input. Really." - 1UP
Nominee for the Technical Achievement of the Year and Best Graphics of the Year at the Swedish Game Awards, Penumbra: Overture is a first-person adventure game that focuses on story, immersion and puzzles. Instead of relying heavily on fighting to progress, you will have to use your wits to guide Philip on his quest to unravel the past. With the Falcon, you will have the ability to open drawers, pull levers, pick up objects, investigate surfaces and more using your sense of touch, creating a highly interactive and immersive game world. Fighting with melee weapons is also done entirely using the Falcon, which increases the realistic and hair-raising feel of combat. Penumbra: Overture is powered by a 3D-engine utilizing cutting edge technology, and has an advanced physics system which allows for never-before-seen environmental interaction, making this one of the most gripping and powerful titles available.
