Then, in Act 3, you get the flashlight after the soldier beats you, therefore you can enter and also have the light you needed (a bit strange is that you have to use it on the opened manhole, otherwise Michael will tell you he can’t see anything), but you have no map to find your way inside. By then, you can lift the manhole cover with it but can’t see anything down there because you have no light. You will have an actual reason to go down the sewers only in Act 4, but you can almost access them since Act 2, once you get the crowbar. You basically retrieve “missing pieces” from puzzles you were introduced to earlier in the game, which felt all right when it came to Hunter’s request of getting him a picture of the fuel in exchange for distracting Rod, but it felt less ok about the sewers’ entrance, probably introduced too early game. In Act 4 there are not many items to find or get.
Once you get the key to Michael’s apartment from Rose, everything gets pretty straightforward.

The main goal of getting your memory back still keeps the same distance from you as you now have to face another series of puzzles.Ĭolin has a message for you, so you have to distract Rod and his wife in order to speak with him, and Rose wants you to find her imaginary baby and his cradle.

You can’t get to Suicide Park if you don’t dig your way beneath it’s fence you can’t get close to the facility if you don’t cut your way through the bushes you can’t get into the facility if you don’t cut the electric wires you can’t get back, past the Camp’s barrier, if you don’t save the kids first. To take another step further, you have to break through a “wall” that block you from getting to the other side. Also, on your way back to complete these objectives you will have to save Misha’s kids from the soldiers, in order to get into the Camp again.Īll of the puzzles that you have to solve in order to complete these tasks are actually very intertwined.

A world that lives by the motto: “You gotta do what you gotta do”.įictiorama Studios developed the game trying to create an old school experience, inspired by “classic” adventure games, that would feature: lots of places to visit in an “open-world” approach and multiple puzzles to be solved simultaneously while advancing the story. Michael wakes up without any memory of his past and meets the world after the catastrophe, a world where morals and history seem not to matter anymore. After a series of catastrophic events that goes by the name of “ The Great Wave“, an horrendous pandemic began to spread and nobody seems to have found a cure while time itself is collapsing. The game features a serious, dark and, sometimes, gruesome story. Dead Synchronicity: Tomorrow Comes Today is the first installment of a series of point and click adventure games developed by Fictiorama Studios and published by Daedalic Entertainment.
