Recoil Games is all set to unleash its latest action side-scrolling puzzle platformer dubbed as Rochard for the PC on November 15, 2011. The title that made its way to the PlayStation Network a couple of months back seemed to garner a lot of attention. It boasts of gravity-bending adventures that are filled with various captivating elements such as humor, puzzles, action and exciting story featuring fascinating alien mysteries.
The upcoming title features the likes of John Rochard who is a humble astro-miner as the protagonist. The human’s first ever proof of extraterrestrial existence surfaces when he and his mining team stumble upon an old structure that is buried in an asteroid. The events that follow such as space pirate attacks and missing team members, lead the hero to believe that there are evil forces who want to utilize the latest discovery for their own wicked means. John faces the enemy head on armed with only everyday mining tools, his wits and loads of sarcasm. He is called upon to rescue his team mates and solve the mystery of the ancient construction.
“Rochard is a fun, original experience designed to test players’ wits and coordination,” commented Samuli Syvähuoko, Founder of Recoil Games. “We’re incredibly excited to bring this game to PC users, since it’s a natural fit for gamers across consoles as well as on PC. We can’t wait to see PC gamers take Rochard through his adventure and watch the fun ways they use the game’s mechanics to manipulate gravity and solve all of the challenges and puzzles.”
The game which will be released for PC players soon is packed with bigger stunts, despicable villains, hilarious one-liner and a modest hero. Gamers can proceed through each level by solving environmental puzzles that require them to defy gravity. With the help of the upgradable G-Lifter, they can easily pick up and place heavy objects and boxes in the surrounding area as well as jump, swing and propel across vast distances in order to conquer each new stage in the title.
Rochard from Recoil Games releases on November 15, 2011 priced at 9.99 USD (approx. Rs. 498), 7.99 GBP (approx. Rs. 638) and 9.99 Euros (approx. Rs. 683) for gamers strewn all across US, UK and the rest of Europe. They can get their hands on this offering through Steam.
