Plugged is a new breed of adventure game developed with Unreal Engine 4 for PC, MAC and Linux. We’re calling it look-and-click adventure. On paper, it plays like a regular, old-school point-and-click adventure game, but the addition of 3D environment allows the player to immerse in the game on a greater level. One of the key features of Plugged is that it fully supports the Oculus Rift which allows players to use their own eyes and head movement to solve puzzles. However, the game doesn’t require one to be played. It works just as good on regular monitors.
Storywise, Plugged will feature a decision-driven narrative. During the course of the game you will be presented with many choices that determine the direction in which you’re progressing and result in completely different stories. For example, the first decision you have to make is to choose between going to an interview for a job you need, and your wife doesn’t fail to kindly remind you of it, and a hotel rendezvous with your highschool sweetheart. However, you can always go back and try out a different path and see where it will take you.
