Radios offer diary-like snippets, phones play out older phone conversations, motes of light coalesce to present a few seconds from key events as a kind of supernatural slideshow. The most notable at the moment seems to be Everybodys gone to the rapture a game Ive already played many times over. The village is empty – a kind of English countryside Mary Celeste – but you seem to be able to tap into echoes of the events that triggered the absences. The story begins near an observatory on the outskirts of the Shropshire village of Yaughton. Despite the impending disaster, most of these characters have no real idea what is going on, and go about their.
Let’s start with what the game actually is. Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture then settles down into a rhythm where the narrative is broken up into chapters in which you’ll follow the story of one of a handful of major characters and their last moments on the earth. It has all of these moments of real loveliness and effectiveness but also, for me, there’s an undercurrent of intense frustration brought about through the interaction systems and slight disconnect between story and environment.
I played it when it came out on PS4 a while back but I’ve just worked my way through the PC version and can now tell you Wot I Think:Įverybody’s Gone To The Rapture won’t quite come together in my head as a unified experience. Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture is The Chinese Room’s newly-on-PC game about exploring an English village in the hopes of finding out where everyone’s get to. File information File name EVERYBODYS.G.T.T.R.V1.01.HF. File size 43.
