Still There

Still There is a point-and-click adventure game developed by the independent studio GhostShark and published by Iceberg Interactive, which has such games as Endless Space, Starpoint Gemini and Conarium in its portfolio.

Plot

The action of Still There is set on the Bento space station located in sector D42-W81. This object serves as a kind of "lighthouse" pointing the way for ships crossing the interstellar space. In the game, we play as an astronaut named Karl, whose mysterious past we get to know during the game. The protagonist not only has to cope with technical challenges but also with his own problems, led by anger and depression. The hero is not alone, as he is accompanied by AI known as Gorky.

Mechanics

In Still There, the action is shown from first-person perspective. In addition to the day-to-day tasks of station maintenance and repairs, Karl is occasionally confronted with unexpected problems. All of this requires him to solve a variety of riddles, such as puzzles involving the use of devices installed at a station, as well as those in which the hero must look for specific objects and use them in specific ways. In addition, it is important to have conversations with the aforementioned AI, listen to radio transmissions and, if necessary, to assist nearby ships.

Technical aspects

Still There features detailed visuals made in cel-shading technique.
