A Story About My Uncle is an exciting indie adventure with platforming elements. You take control of a teenager who is looking for his missing uncle. After some time of searching, the boy finds a house that has become the abode of his relative's research. And in it he learns about unusual finds in the form of a strange suit and a portal to another world. As it usually happens, without thinking twice, the protagonist puts on the devices and sets off on a dizzying journey, finding new clues and unidentified creatures ready to help.
The "chip" of the video game is its gameplay, or rather the way to move between locations. Since the hero has access to a device with a gravitational glove, this will open up new frontiers in the knowledge of the world. A special power hook will make it possible to be attracted to objects at great speed, which will allow you to overcome long distances between targets. But be careful, only 3 pull-ups and one boost are available per run, so you have to calculate the trajectory and keep an eye on the environment.
Collectible items in the form of devices are scattered around the game world, for the collection of which bonuses will open:
- 10 - it will be possible to change the color of the beam of the glove, whether it be green, or even pink.
- 15 - a special goat mode will open, turning some components into sounds, or limbs of this animal. Reference to Goat Simulator.
- 20 - you can feel like Midas transforming objects into gold.
- 25 - before each flight you will do somersaults, which will make the jumps more spectacular.
The plot is presented without violence, and immersion and atmosphere become the leading positions. During the entire adventure, you will encounter only one enemy - a snake, which, upon detecting movement on the platforms, will immediately blow into the abyss. But this is not a hindrance, and with the right actions, the enemy can be bypassed.
