Assume the role of Joule Adams, a young survivor of a terrible cataclysm who journeys from Earth to the desert world, “Far Eden” to build mankind’s new home. But when Joule wakes after centuries in cryo-sleep, nothing has gone according to plan… With her “Corebot” companion, Mack, Joule begins an adventure to unlock secrets from the past, defeat powerful foes, and bring new life and hope to Far Eden. The Far Eden colony was meant to be a paradise, where humans and Corebots could build a future together. Now, however, most of the Corebots have gone rogue, and the planet is plagued by violent sandstorms. In some areas these storms come and go, altering the terrain and revealing new areas to explore and new challenges to overcome. Defeat your enemies—including massive boss creatures—with creative tactics, split-second timing, and by unleashing your Corebots’ unique abilities. Craft components to customize your Corebots to create your perfect battle party, and then share your creations with other gamers online.
Available on Xbox One (tested) and PC
Zelda in space sounds awesome right? On paper, that’s exactly what ReCore is. It borrows elements from classic open-world platformers like Prince of Persia, melds them with the dungeon-conquering mechanics from Nintendo’s iconic Zelda series, and wraps it all up in a sci-fi setting that’s rife with mystery.
This should make ReCore the ideal game for space geeks like me with a penchant for platforming – and for the most part it is. However, issues with its combat, framerate and slightly by-the-numbers puzzles stop it fully delivering on its opening promise.
The game starts out strong and tells the story of a girl and her robot. Specifically it sees you take the role of Joule Adams just after she’s woken up on the alien world of Far Eden, after over two centuries in cryosleep.
Joule’s awakening isn’t a pleasant one. Far Eden was meant to have been terraformed by automated machines called Corebots during her downtime, but something went wrong. As a result, Joule wakes up alone on a dust-filled planet that’s only been terraformed partially, and the Corebots have gone AWOL.
Her only clues to what’s gone wrong come from a series of video and audio messages from her father, who just so happens to be one of the chief scientists working on the Far Eden makeover and is one of the aforementioned missing humans.
