Akupara Games and Tmesis Studio's latest adventure, Universe for Sale, is now available. Following successful releases like The Darkside Detective series and Zoeti earlier this year, Akupara Games delivers another intriguing title.
Is the Cosmos Truly for Sale?
The game unfolds on a Jupiter space station, a bizarre marketplace shrouded in acid rain and mystery. Orangutans with surprising wit manage the docks, while cultists exchange flesh for enlightenment. The universe itself is for sale, thanks to Lila, a woman with the unusual ability to create universes from her hand.
Beginning in a mining colony's shantytown, you play as the Master, a skeletal cultist from the Cult of Detachment. Exploring the ramshackle colony, you eventually discover Honin's Tea House, Lila's shop, and her enigmatic nature slowly unfolds as you shift between her perspective and the Master's.
Playing as Lila involves a mini-game of universe creation, mixing ingredients to produce visually stunning worlds. The Master's journey delves into the Cult of Detachment's philosophies and encounters with the Church of Many Gods.
The narrative develops as you progress, prompting reflection on the overarching mystery. Each character, whether human, skeletal, or robotic, possesses a unique story, and the richly detailed world invites exploration.
