Occulude
Critic Reviews for Occulude
Occlude is an enjoyable, challenging-yet-beatable, puzzle game. It doesn’t shy away from telling you to expect to find it difficult. Equally, it encourages you to continue forward in the face of setbacks. The mechanics and general rules of play are easy to pick up, and the differing rules of each Ritual can be deciphered with trial-and-error. The story elements didn’t fully engage me, unfortunately, and felt like decoration to stop the game being simply a procession of levels. However, if you do play and want to explore more of the narrative, there may be additional secrets to discover, perhaps using the ‘Evidence’ that’s being released slowly on the Steam Community page. After all is said and done, Occlude is a tight, well-polished experience. I’d recommend this to players who enjoy a challenge where logic and deduction skills are essential. Occlude receives the Thumb Culture Gold Award. Happy dealings!
