Cradle Review | NextPowerUp
Cradle is a beautiful Sci-Fi exploration game, with spots of puzzles and a light sprinkling of horror in there too. It's developed by Flying Café for Semianimals, all done in the Unigine engine. As such it's unbelievably good looking for the most part. The game has you dumped in a vast open area, probably about two miles squared, which is entirely open for you to explore. Anything in the distance that looks like its low fidelity means you probably can't go there, and the invisible walls begin. Your main role as the protagonist is to figure out who you are and what you do, as well as uncover the past of an m-body you help fix throughout the game – fixing more means uncovering more. Overall it's quite a varied game, with a lot of pretty great ideas under its belt. It is, by all standards, an exceptionally unique sci-fi game with rather a lot of highly original ideas.
