Many individuals have reminiscences of cooking one thing scrumptious with their grandmother. There’s something comforting and heat about serving to your grandmother within the kitchen – it’s one thing I bear in mind fondly doing as a toddler. On this sport, your grandmother is cooking a stunning soup, and he or she wants your assist discovering substances. The one concern is, each time you permit the home, you get sucked into one other world: A colourful, enjoyable, and mysterious world that’s seemingly filled with speaking frogs.
You aren’t fazed by this, nonetheless, and can discover your means round via speaking to completely different creatures and understanding what they want. Sopa seems like an open world point-and-click journey sport with a giant sprint of journey and foolish dialogue that captivates you.
Sopa has plenty of foolish moments, however on the identical time, there may be extra emotion subtly in right here. As your character grows older (which occurs every time he goes out to get substances), and so does your grandmother. Though you make soup along with her, this kind of life doesn’t final ceaselessly, so that you’ll have to take pleasure in it whilst you can.
Within the demo model of Sopa that I acquired to play at The Combine at GDC, I fell in love with the wacky world, the straightforward, relatable story, and the visuals themselves. Within the present construct, the principle evident concern was depth on this planet, as my character typically acquired caught in locations and I used to be uncertain of the place to go subsequent. However, on the identical time, I see Sopa as changing into a slice of life journey sport that I’ve open on my Xbox to play and unwind with within the night, making a bit of soup with my grandmother. It’s a sport that I’ll positively be enjoying as soon as it’s out.
Sopa is presently in improvement, however within the meantime, you may add it to your Steam Wishlist.
