Embrace death as a core mechanic in this indie puzzle adventure from Erik Hermansen, the mind behind Deadly Rooms of Death. Players control Emm, a newly-dead soul clashing with God and foes like bureaucrats, inventors, royalty, and strict law enforcers. Tackle 58 massive levels through instant turn-taking gameplay, where each move triggers responses from all entities.
Throw blocks across rooms, stack them high to forge routes, and destroy them to respawn in key spots. Navigate fully three-dimensional puzzles with vertical thinking, dodge hazards, and use staircases plus contraptions to progress. Fully voice-acted talks with 48 characters and 12 original vocal songs deepen the afterlife tale, delivering 30 hours of clever challenges for puzzle fans who relish strategic deaths and block mastery.
The Godkiller - Chapter 1 is a puzzle adventure from Erik Hermansen, creator of Deadly Rooms of Death. Fling yourself into 58 massive puzzle levels. Stack blocks, dodge cops, die to progress, and discover the secrets of the afterlife.
The Godkiller features creative new twists on classic puzzle mechanics. Instead of pushing blocks, throw them - and yourself - across entire levels, and stack them vertically to open new routes. Instead of fearing death, embrace it by killing your character to respawn her in better locations. Many more hazards and contraptions await, to be dodged or turned to your advantage.
You will play as Emm, a newly-dead soul who is greeted by God himself. God's plans conflict with Emm's independence, and she swiftly collects enemies. Emm will contend with bureaucrats, inventors, royalty, and a sect of law enforcers who really want her to keep off the grass. Emm's story is told through fully voice-acted dialogue and 12 original vocalised songs.
