The final episode is The Last Session and I am not going to say a thing about this episode. I found this episode the most difficult as you are required to use a film-based file in order to locate information which can then include additional elements that alters the code. You are trapped in a portacabin, receiving transmissions and deciphering codes through radio communications. Here the feeling of isolation is all consuming. The third episode is The Station Process, which again alters from the previous episodes. The tension begins to rise and all of a sudden these experiments become mentally difficult to perform leaving you feeling uneasy. At first these seem like mundane tasks but gradually something begins to feel wrong… You slowly begin to question your actions and its parts like this that Untold Stories really nails. The episode starts with a mysterious voice guiding you through scientific experiments. I am glad to report that this is not the case as the next episode changes the gameplay loop. The atmosphere that they create during the episode is astounding and that is due to the fantastic writing and sound design.Īfter finishing the first episode, I could not wait to start the second, The Lab Conduct, however would the formula start to get tiresome? It was during this episode that I realised the pure brilliance and innovation of the developers No Code.
The game starts innocently but soon, it takes a dark turn. You are seated at a desk in front of a Spectrum-esque computer and a CRT monitor. The first, House Abandon, is text adventure. The game has four distinct episodes that all have unique gameplay mechanic. Ahhh… this takes me back to the good ol’ days! Gameplay The spine chilling text adventure, which is smothered in 80s nostalgia, will leave you in awe, pondering what you just experienced. Stories Untold is a creepy collection of interconnected short stories that will have you gripped from beginning to end.
