Chill Time episode 30 - We start Chants of Sennaar, and try to not brute-force it!
1People of the Tower!
After a little pause, we are back to more Chill Time!
After weeks and weeks of driving trucks around, we're going to change pace, and play through Chants of Senaar.
Chants of Senaar is inspired by the judeo-christian myth of the Tower of Babel, a tower built by Men so they could reach the heavens. God, seeing the tower of an affront, struck the people of Earth with the curse of different languages. Not able to understand each other, the People of Earth stopped construction of the Tower and dispersed around the world, forming the different tribes of the World.
That's how the early people of Judea explained the fact that Men could look so much like each other, yet talk languages that had no incompatibility with one another.
Chants of Sennaar builds on this myth, and you play as a foreigner appearing inside a massive tower, trying to understand the people around him, people talking in different and incompatible languages.
Armed with your notepad and pencil, you take notes and try to match words with actions and objects, to translate exchanges and solve the puzzles put before you.
The game has elements of puzzle-solving,as well as a very large mechanic of code-breaking.
In those videos, I'm trying to play the game without brute-forcing the code-breaking elements, which is hard for me as a person. I love brute-forcing codes and puzzles, maybe because I like to find the solution way before I am supposed to. Probably because I'm a smartass and a pain in the butt in real life.
I hope you enjoy this chill game, that takes its time getting you around the Tower, and generates no stress at all.
Cheers, and I'll see you next sunday for more of it.
If you want to watch another chill puzzle-solving game where I get impatient and brute-force the solution, I have a complete playthrough of the Return of the Obra Dinn...
