About Kitrinos: Inside the Cube

About



"1961. The hero is Professor Dimarx, an archaeologist who thinks he made the discovery of the century on his planet, Terra, on the forbidden continent of Meridia. He is exalted by his discovery, and descends into the depths of the earth without precautions. He is as if called by an unknown force, and will discover the first Black Cube in the modern history of Terra. His mind is then like "absorbed" inside..."

Kitrinos is a first-person #scifi adventure game set in the world of the Black Cube series (ASA, Catyph, Myha...) and initially created during Adventure Jam 2018 on Game Jolt. It takes place in a retro geometrical world, that can remind of old movies and polygonal games. We mainly created it in 2 weeks (the development continued during the next few days to complete the game).

Gameplay



The gameplay is frame by frame (in prerendered 3D backgrounds) with 360° panoramic views in HD, and many short cutscenes in animated video. The game was developed with the Clickteam Fusion engine. It is recommended to play it with a pen and paper to take notes and solve the puzzles.

Features


  • A prequel to the Black Cube games
  • 1~2 hours of lifetime
  • An original soundtrack by Yazorius
  • 3 different regions to visit
  • Challenging puzzles
  • The story is told through a diary and several animated cutscenes
  • 1080p graphics, 360 panoramic views

Kitrinos is a kind of psychological journey, from the creators of ASA: A Space Adventure (Simon Mesnard) and 'EnantiO' (Yazorius).

In 1961, a professor of archeology finds a hidden artifact who wants to know if people are worthy of Knowledge. [b]Pros:[/b][list] [*]+ Availability: the game is free [*]+ Achievements [*]+ Challenging puzzles [*]+ Great art [*]+ Nice music [*]+ To solve many problems you will need a pen and a piece of paper. [b]Minuses:[/b] [*]- Difficulty[/list] [b]Total:[/b] Quite a difficult quest in which we have to solve many puzzles. The game seems unsightly, but hides a pretty good plot. It is a prequel to the Black Cube series of games. The game is recommended for the passage of lovers of riddles, mysticism and complex puzzles.

interesting idea, terrible execution. a bugged achievement despite it depicting what to do in the achievement's image, huge delay in inputs, there's so much i don't like about this game. it's nearly six years old, and if this game was still cared about it would be fixed

Игра Kitrinos: Inside the Cube — это увлекательное приключение, которое затягивает с первых минут. Разработчики создали уникальный мир, наполненный загадками и головоломками, которые заставят ваш мозг работать на полную катушку. Визуальный стиль игры весьма самобытен, каждая локация проработана до мелочей, создавая атмосферу таинственности и исследования. Управление интуитивно понятное, что позволяет быстро освоиться и сосредоточиться на решении задач. Сюжет, хоть и не всегда очевиден, постепенно раскрывает историю главного героя и окружающего его мира, заставляя задуматься над происходящим. Игра отлично подойдет для тех, кто любит интеллектуальные испытания и хочет погрузиться в атмосферу тайн и открытий. Время, проведенное за Kitrinos, пролетает незаметно, оставляя приятное послевкусие и желание разгадать все секреты этого кубического мира.
