About Apotheorasis • Lab of the Blind Gods | Prologue

A first person shooter and a blind protagonist walk into a lab. A lab where newborn gods struggle, hope and despair. To survive, you may have to rely on the ones responsible for this mess. Learn what you are and dream of who you could be.

Apotheorasis is a first person 3D action thriller without any graphics or UI.


Navigation, stealth, shooting, interactions ; you play it all by ear (literally). So lean back, and let our 3D audio immerse you in this dark, thrilling, twisted - and badly humorous - sci-fi action-adventure!

Narrative



A recent accident has left you blind, unable to speak, and with no memory of your former self.
“We are here to help” whispers a voice softly, yet something feels off.

In a twisted stroke of luck, your fate is tied to that of a dubious stranger. All you know is that something far more ominous is lurking around every corner you can't see.

Key Features

  • Dream-Like Graphics
    Close your eyes, listen carefully, and let your imagination handle the rest.
  • 3D Audio (Binaural)
    That bullet that's coming your way from the top right? Yes, you can tell.
  • Rediscover the Basics
    Navigate from A to B, dodge traps, and fight enemies ; it will feel like your first time.
  • Hard but Forgiving
    Frequent checkpoints make sure you never lose more than a minute or two of your efforts.
  • Love, Songs and Robots
    The A.I. running the menus can't sing - so it creat.. *hired* a soprano & pianist instead.
  • Short and Sweet
    An interesting story told in a simple way, with a few choices along the way.

Your progress and achievements transfer seamlessly to the full game.

This game is so cool!!!! It really makes you appreciate the work that goes into sound design, and just gives you a whole different perspective on interactive media. Plus the full experience of the game is completely accessible to blind people, which I don't have to mention is pretty damn uncommon in the video game world. Some of the reviews have complaints about the voice acting but honestly, I think the VAs sound like they're having a great time (scientist ily you're an absolute riot) and I'm so here for it. The prologue feels more like an interactive experience/film than a game, which isn't a bad thing, just something to be aware of if you're expecting it to be mostly gameplay--there's a lot of cutscene. I personally would have liked to have had more interactive sequence; it felt unbalanced with short gameplay segments sandwiched between long cutscenes. That being said I still really enjoyed the experience and when I get the chance I'm super hype to get the full game >:0

Como experimento auditivo, está ok. Es extremadamente clunky si no estás 100% concentrado en las pistas que se te van dando. Y aparte es un tipo de experiencia en la que si algo externo te distrae aunque sea un poco, ya perdés todo el contexto y sensibilidad a lo que está pasando. Por no decir que aparte es un tipo de experimento que en mí en lo personal no funciona. No es de mi agrado, y no anda muy bien si tu cuerpo físicamente no quiere mantener los ojos cerrados por no tener sueño, y una venda simplemente no consigue el mismo efecto. Y el voice acting, yo pido mil disculpas a la gente que lo hizo, pero la verdad es que es bastante feo y es estrictamente lo más importante. Lo recomiendo porque en cada uno debe ser distinto y porque es literalmente gratis, si no, hard skip.

Apotheorasis • Lab of the Blind Gods | Prologue is one of those experimental games that takes a familiar genre and changes the way players interact with it at a fundamental level. Rather than presenting a traditional first-person shooter filled with detailed environments, weapon models, interfaces, and visual effects, it builds its experience almost entirely around three-dimensional sound. Developed and published by Tall Guy Productions, the game places the player in the role of someone who cannot see, turning careful listening into the primary method of navigating, fighting, surviving, and understanding the strange situation unfolding around them. The story gives this unusual design a meaningful foundation. The protagonist awakens after a devastating incident with blindness, an inability to speak, and no clear memory of who they once were. From there, the player is drawn into a mysterious sequence of events involving an unfamiliar laboratory, questionable experiments, unusual beings, and characters whose intentions are not immediately trustworthy. A voice offers guidance, but the uncertainty surrounding the protagonist's circumstances means that even apparently helpful informatio…
