GAMEPLAY
The Drifter is our take on a classic 2d point and click adventure- with the brake-lines cut. The focus is on fast-paced storytelling, with puzzle-solving being the glue that ties it together. Micks a practical guy, and so puzzles are down-to-earth too, designed to be unobtrusive, and give an investigative feel.
Were keeping the pacing quick and lean, youll never be wandering around lost or confused- Mick is propelled through the story at a good clip, from one situation to another, with barely a moment to catch his breath. One minute youll be crafting a Molotov cocktail from a bottle of over-proof rum, the next interrogating a crooked neurosurgeon before swinging from a high-rise window by a fraying extension lead.
