Most of the gameplay focuses on exploration and contextual interactions with the world around you, much like Gone Home or What Remains of Edith Finch. Unlike many games in the survival horror genre, Observer: System Redux doesn’t use violent combat or “run and hide” mechanics (for the most part) to create a creepy atmosphere. Observer never holds your hand or answers every question, and your choices will have a very real effect on how you see the world around you and even how it all ends. For example, you have the option to make Dan take his medication whenever his vitals are in the red, but you’re never told why – or what happens if you don’t. There’s a lot left up to interpretation, which can be said for much of the larger story as well. They’re not an exact replication of the victims’ memories, but more of a trippy reenactment that mashes together different environments and art styles. These “dream eater” sequences keep the derelict apartment setting from ever feeling too claustrophobic. Oh, and you can plug into a chip in dead people’s brains to explore their memories, like you do. You’ll use these abilities to track down whoever’s murdering the building’s tenants, sometimes following a literal trail of blood in your quest to stop the killer and find Dan’s son. Despite the familiar themes, Observer never feels derivative it’s more of a love letter to the works that came before than an imitation.īeing a cybernetically enhanced Observer, Dan Lazarski has a few extra tools at his disposal: he can use EM Vision to analyze electronic equipment, Bio Vision to identify biological materials like blood, and Night Vision to make dark spaces like the building’s creepy basement easier to navigate. There are multiple references to the novel Nineteen Eighty-Four as well, including finding physical copies of the book throughout the apartment building, and stumbling upon Easter eggs like this is always a delight. Lazarski is voiced by the now late Rutger Hauer, whose “tears in the rain” monologue from Blade Runner deserves a spot in the dystopian fiction hall of fame. In-game collectibles' menu shows the correct maximum amount of patients' cards Doors leading to the room 210 should no longer be doubled Errant Signal: computer in the basement should no longer have issues with text dispay (white screen) preventing the player from finishing the quest It Runs In The Family: Tkaczyk's computer monitor is readable even when the room is dark
