The Star Named EOS

The Star Named EOS is a narrative adventure game developed by the independent Silver Lining Studio. They were previously responsible for another project of the similar genre, Behind the Frame: The Finest Scenery.

Plot

The main protagonist of The Star Named EOS is a young photographer named Dei. Throughout the game, he follows in the footsteps of his long-missing mother. While away from home she used to send him letters, to which she attached photos she had taken; these let her son imagine the adventures she was experiencing. However, after he notices something strange on one of the photographs, his mother mysteriously disappears. Years later, Dei decides to solve the mystery of what happened to her.

Mechanics

The gameplay in The Star Named EOS is shown from the first-person perspective. As we traverse the diverse locations our main objective is taking photos and examining them; these trigger flashbacks, letting the protagonist relive long-forgotten memories. In addition to that, throughout the game the player solves various puzzles involving finding objects and interacting with the environment.

Technical aspects

The colorful visuals of The Star Named EOS have been made with the use of the same cartoonish artstyle known from Silver Lining Studio's previous project.
