Pantaloon’s game for December is Kona
Another month, another game for you. Our last of the year, in fact. And as it's December we're getting into the spirit of Winter and giving you Kona; a chilly interactive tale set in Northern Canada in 1970.
Brrrr.
Watch the trailer:
A strange blizzard ravages Atamipek Lake...
Parabole's Kona is one of those game's with a peerless sense of self. It's grounding of a very precise location and moment in time is almost tangible - with the Parabole team taking great care to cultivate a very specific atmosphere (which Parabole's Alexandre Fiset talks more about in our interview, which will drop at the end of the month).
Kona very intentionally blurs genre lines, putting narrative and survival into a blender (with plenty of ice) - the resulting experience being both thoughtful and tense, with a looming sense of dread as you traverse the frosty wilds.
Features
> Step into a surreal interactive tale of mystery and investigate the perplexing quietness in the entire town
> Explore a vast, frigid Northern environment and battle the elements to survive
