Papers, Please dev Lucas Pope announces latest project
Lucas Pope, known for developing the dystopian document thriller named Papers, Please announced his next project and game Return of the Obra Dinn. His latest game is currently still in early development but will be a 3D first-person mystery game in 1-bit black & white graphics, an ode to the old Mac games. Return of the Obra Dinn will take place on an East Indiaman merchant ship during the year 1808. The ideas for Return of the Obra Dinn are still rough and edgy but the plan is to have a mystery game that will make you sit on the edge of your chair with twists in the plot that will blow your mind. All of this needs to take place in a limited location, the merchant ship that was declared lost at sea in 1802 but re-discovered in 1808 with no crew on deck.
All-in-all the plot seems worthy for a point and click adventure game but according to Pope, “it won’t be the typical collect items and look for clues structure” which leaves us all guessing for what type of gameplay he has planned for his next game.
