Gekko Episode of Nova

Gekko Episode of Nova is a free to play adventure game that follows a character named Gekko through a strange story filled with exploration, characters and different situations to discover. It is more focused on the experience and story than complicated gameplay. The biggest strength is the world and the characters. Gekko has a distinctive style, and the strange setting gives the game some personality. It feels like a small project that is trying to create its own little world. The exploration is fairly simple. You move through different areas, talk to characters and look around for things that can help you continue. This makes the game easy to pick up without having to learn complicated controls. The story is also an important part of the experience. There are different characters to meet and events to discover, so the main reason to keep playing is finding out what happens next. The presentation has a colourful and unusual style that suits the game. It is not trying to look realistic, and the more simple appearance helps give it a bit of charm. The biggest problem is that the gameplay does not have a huge amount of depth. Most of the experience is exploring and following the story, so people looking for action or complicated puzzles may find it too simple. The amount of content is another issue. As an episode, it feels more like a small part of a larger idea rather than a huge adventure with dozens of hours of content. Overall, Gekko Episode of Nova is a simple little adventure with a colourful style and a story focused on its characters. It is not a massive game, but it can be enjoyable if you like short indie adventures with unusual worlds. Rating: 6.7/10
