About Teslagrad
Harness electromagnetic powers to solve devious puzzles and uncover a conspiracy within an abandoned Tesla Tower across hand-drawn steampunk landscapes. This wordless adventure tells its story entirely through visuals and atmospheric design, challenging you to manipulate magnetism and electricity to progress through a non-linear world.
Discover the secrets kept in the long abandoned Tesla Tower!
Magnetism and other electromagnetic powers will help you explore a non-linear world of beautiful hand-drawn environments, in a steampunk-inspired vision of old Europe. A young boy suddenly finds himself embroiled in a long-forgotten conspiracy, involving a despotic king who rules the nation with an iron fist. Jump into an outstanding adventure told through voiceless storytelling, writing your own part. Armed with ancient Teslamancer technology and your own ingenuity and creativity, your path lies through the decrepit Tesla Tower and beyond.
Features
- Complex puzzles! Put your sense of logic to the test and cleverly manipulate the world around you using electricity and magnetism, the lifeblood of the game. Puzzles will range from “pff, that wasn't so bad” to keyboard-smashing, controller-chewing frustration.
- Explore! Make your way through rich 2D hand-drawn surroundings as you journey into — and beyond— Tesla Tower, picking up use amazing new items as you go.
- Visual storytelling! Tired of all those words in your video games? Have no fear, Teslagrad features not a single snippet of text or squeak of dialogue. Everything is purely visual, and the entire story is told through what you see (and sometimes what you don't see).
- Steampunk powered! Discover a dystopic and mind-blowing rainy-and-brainy setting, presenting a steampunk vision of an old Europe-inspired new world.
- Old-school boss fights! Use your skills and wits to overcome the 5 incredible final bosses eager to demagnetize you.
- No disruptions! That means no loading screens, no GUI, no cutscenes. Just the game and you.
- Mesmerizing soundtrack! Awesome mix of classical orchestra, with a touch of Russian inspiration and a myriad of metal bits and electrical stuff.
Teslagrad is available for Windows, Mac OSX and Linux.
"It's beautiful minimalist storytelling, and it fits really well with the gameplay proper, which is delightful in more ways than one." Jared Rosen, Indiestatik.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
The game is cute but my biggest gripes are: - The map cannot be zoomed out so you can only see the adjacent rooms - Your character movement is really floaty and you slide on every surface - The boss design is atrocious
A cute game with several good ideas and puzzles, but the main frustration is the one-hit-kill mechanic for boss fights that turn a decent challenge into pure tedium. This could have been greatly alleviated by giving the player a single-hit shield which only activates for boss chambers.
It's fine.
This game is like Disney's Anastasia the movie, but only in the way that there's the Bolsheviks coming to kill you and thats about it
Good, if simple, Metroidvania. The world layout is rather simple for a Metroidvania. It's also rather short for a Metroidvania. The style is amazing. ---{ Gameplay }--- Peak X Great Good Meh Watch water come a to boil instead Makes your body convulse ---{ Graphics }--- This is reality X Beautiful Good Mid Bad MS-DOS Eyes Bleed ---{ Audio }--- Transcendent X Great Good Mid Bad I am now deaf ---{ Computer Specs }--- Check if you can run Paint Potato X Decent Fast Rich boi Ask NASA if they have a spare computer ---{ Difficulty }--- Just press 'W' Easy X Normal Significant Effort Sifu NES Hard ---{ Story }--- No Story Bad X Average Good Great It'll change your life ---{ Game Time }--- Long enough for a cup of coffee X Short Average Long To infinity and beyond ---{ Bang For Your Buck }--- It's free! Worth more than the price X Worth the price Not quite worth the money Asking double or more what it's worth If you are The Joker and ran out of lighter fluid ---{ Bugs }--- X Never seen any Minor bugs Can get annoying Rather Glitchy This game is a big terrarium for bugs ---{ 9 / 10 }---
Will not let me remap controls in the menus, does not have controls preset for my xbox elite controller, like the slots are literally blank, and locks up when I try to change the controls to anything other than blank.
