Drowned God Longplay Part 1/16

  • Synopsis:
    The story behind Drowned God takes place under the notion that the human race was genetically engineered by god-like aliens that even guided us through history by nudging civilization forward with certain artifacts of power. Four of those artifacts (The Ark of the Covenant, The Philosopher's Stone, The Rod of Osiris and the Holy Grail) are now lost and they are the key to unlocking a series of mysteries that somehow tie up practically every conspiracy theory from the Knights Templar to the Illuminati. It is up to you now to gather these artifacts and solve the mysteries as you are sent through time and space from an alternate dimension reminiscent of earth.

    • @YankeePendragon
      @YankeePendragon 6 лет назад +6

      Inquiries about the rights have been made in the past. Rockstar Games reportedly approach Mr Horse back in 2004 or 2005 about their making "Drowned God: Cult", but he declined given what a mess the original game ended up being. Pity there, as they might have made a decent go of it.

    Beautiful and creepy. Play it with headphones in the dark for best effect. Puzzles can be pretty tough. Take copious notes as well as screen shots with your phone or camera, they will come in handy later. Well worth the effort. It sat untouched for a long time in its box before I finally played it about 10 years ago on an XP laptop. Still have it and might revisit it again :)

      @@psychoticgiraffe The funny thing is, I was also obsessed with this game and all the backstory around it, and even painstakingly got it to work/played through it.
      at the same time, I was obsessed with an album (this is what you should listen to) by a mysterious artist called Miasma, who seemingly is a guy called Will Joss. The album is called Miasma 1195, (with the album cover being a dark orange wolf ) .
      That's the only other real release by Miasma, and my god, it is wonderful and incredibly an incredibly sophisticated blend of dark ambient dub, driving post-rock and with some very mysterious samples. Occasionally there's also a vocalist, very good voice and ultimately this is one of the albums I'm most obsessed with.
      Some utter beauty in that music, and some utter evil darkness.
      But I had absolutely no clue at all that they were both connected like this, Will Joss is a genius who can work wonders with music. Yet he barely seems to exist at all, as far as google is concerned. I don't think he's made anything at all since the 90s, and I have yet to see a picture of him. Very cool.

    Ah, if only the sequel had been given a chance, we might've found out what was in the fourth world. Of course the game was originally supposed to be narrated by William S Burroughs, have nine separate game paths, and start with the Bermuda Triangle island. That we ended up with this bizarre if beautiful and suggestive trip, well, there are worse ways to spend time, right?

  • @PhillipOliverWholes

    Spoilers, but those saying that the clue for the Hermit puzzle is wrong are incorrect. The values for wind and thunder are sliders with 5 positions each, and the important clue is that thunder = 0. If the first position on the slider is 0, then the values are 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4. Wind = 4 means the correct position is the rightmost one on the slider.

    So much weirdness went on in these games and you fairly got a clue of what to do. I played the demo and it looked promising (you were in a trailer, an alien scared you and you had to beat the computer in mill or something). That looked more realistic and less tripy-fantasy stuff.

    Hey, another fan of that particular game. Cool! Drowned God isn't perfect, it's buggy, and even commits a cardinal sin of MYST style games, namely one of the clues for the one of the puzzles being actually wrong, but still, this game has long had a special place in my heart.
    It gets the atmosphere right. Playing this game almost gives the feeling of, for lack of better words, a "mystical experience."
    And has been pointed out by others elsewhere, the narration is practically ear candy.
