Encodya Europe Steam CD Key
Encodya is a futuristic point-and-click adventure game inspired by Blade Runner, the Monkey Island series and Ghibli movies. It is a project of Chaosmonger Studio, founded at the beginning of the 21st century and specializing in documentary, animated and science fiction films. Since 2019, the label has also been developing its own games, such as Clunky Hero and Encodya.
The protagonist of the game Encodya is Tina, a nine-year-old orphan who lives in a shelter on the roof of a skyscraper in the dark metropolis of Neo Berlin. In 2062, powerful corporations rule the city and machines are ubiquitous. Tina, along with the huge but clumsy SAM-53 robot protecting her, lives off the rubbish and scrap metal left by other residents.
A girl's life takes an unexpected turn after an unexpected discovery. Tina's father has left her on an important mission: to complete a plan that will save the world. So the heroine and her mechanical guardian set off on a journey that will lead her through strange places full of equally bizarre robots and people.
Unlike many cyberpunk productions, Encodya approaches the subject with a pinch of salt. The game draws clear inspiration from Monkey Island and the works of Ghibli studio, thus giving up the nihilism and cynicism typical of this setting for a lighter but moving story.
The Chaosmonger Studio team did not try to reinvent the wheel when designing the gameplay. Encodya is a textbook example of a point-and-click adventure game: the fun comes down to talking to more than 30 NPCs and searching over 100 available locations for useful items. The latter can be combined in the inventory to obtain a new object and "use" on the environment or NPCs. Some of the things that we can interact with have no practical use, but they reveal interesting information about the game world or are an excuse for a joke.
Encodya also includes two interesting solutions. Just like in the Sam & Max series, there are two characters in the game: Tina and SAM-53. From time to time, players come across a task that only one of them can do, such as talking to a character who doesn't like humans or robots. The second novelty is the system of randomly generated puzzles, thanks to which the title can surprise you even with the next attempts to the game.
