GamingLives takes a look at the underwater puzzle adventure from Pigsels Media with a classic tale of boy octopus meets girl octopus, they fall in love, and then girl octopus gets herself trapped in a bottle deep in the ocean.
"Pigsels Media’s Coloropus, at it’s most basic, is a story about a young male octopus who has to save his beloved (who has a knack for getting snatched away). Think of it like a puzzle/adventure Mario and you get the idea.
If you look deeper though, you’ll find a fairly challenging, fun, and unique puzzle-adventure game in Coloropus." - JTM Games
Coloropus is developed by Pigsels and published by Lace Mamba Global for the PC. It is a puzzle adventure game which relies heavily on its colour mechanics and physics to progress through the game.
Though the days of point-and-click adventure games have long since passed, being abandoned in lieu of sleek graphics, relentless action, and other typical qualities of large-scale games, in the indie market, they are quite alive and thriving, if not in a different form. Coloropus is one such variety of adventure game, and though it stumbles a bit along the way, the peculiar blend of color puzzles, adventuring, and mouse-based movement makes for a charming game that is well worth your money.
