Description

Close to the Sun Digital Deluxe contains the main game, Digital Artbook & OST.




It’s 1897. Deep in international waters, the Helios stands still. Dark clouds loom overhead as unforgiving waves crash against the hull. Colossal effigies of gold, decorated with magnificent finery, stretch as far as the eye can see.

Born of Nikola Tesla’s vision, the Helios serves as a haven for the greatest scientific minds. An unbound utopia for research, independent from state and isolated from the gaze of society. Free to push the boundaries of matter and time.

Journalist Rose Archer steps aboard the Helios in search of her sister Ada. She quickly discovers not all is as it seems. Grand halls stand empty. The stench of rotting flesh lingers in the air. Silence. A single word is painted across the entrance… QUARANTINE!


Experience a second era of scientific enlightenment, where the mind and inventions of the great Nikola Tesla have shaped the 19th century

Step aboard the Helios - Explore the colossal and mysterious vessel of scientific discovery, a safe haven for scientific progress, away from the threat of corporate espionage

Use your wits to guide Rose on her journey to find her sister Ada, overcome dangers unknown to understand the fate of the Helios and its inhabitants

Solve challenging puzzles to progress through the game and unlock secret areas

Search every corner to uncover hidden collectables and discover the history and secrets of Wardenclyffe and its workers

Explore a visually stunning environment Built in Unreal Engine™ 4

Glad I finally played it!

So, I bought this game on sale a while back and it was sitting in my backlog. Then I checked howlongtobeat.com and found it only takes about 4 hours to beat and decided to knock it out. So glad I did! This game is my type of game. That being said, this type of game isn't for everybody. Check the GAME DESCRIPTION before buying any game... If the game doesn't live up to it, dock it stars and complain. This game, however, lives up to it's description... And wonderfully. So, I give it a full 5. This game is essentially a walking simulator with some horror elements and very minimal puzzle solving, along with a few run for your life segments. If you go in expecting that sort of thing then you won't be disappointed. It's not a survival horror game, and it's not an FPS. Go in expecting a beautifully dark environment where science has pushed it's limits too far, and people are now having to live with the consequences. Who can you trust? Who are your friends? And what happened to your sister? Why are there bodies strewn all over the ship in various forms of slaughter? (This game is not for the weak of stomach, there are some truly gruesome places on this ship.) I really enjoyed this game. If you go into it with the right mindset then I know you will to. Don't expect what it's not.
