Magrunner: Dark Pulse 3 AM Games / Frogwares / Focus Home Interactive 2013

When technology meets Cthulhu! This is an action-puzzle game in which technology confronts the Cthulhu Mythos, as imagined by author, H. P. Lovecraft. Magrunner takes us to 2050, at the heart of the Gruckezber Magtech space exploration training facility. This futuristic venture, organized to promote a brand new technology, puts your reflexes and brain to the test, with simple yet exciting mechanics. You are Dax, one of seven Magrunners selected among the elite to participate in MagTech Corporation's space training program. But the high-tech "friendly competition" between giant corporations descends into a battle for survival, and for the fate of the entire world. How? That's not entirely clear, but somehow the bright, clean world of the future is pulled into the bizarre and dangerous parallel universe of the dreaded Cthulhu, and it becomes your job to pull it back out. The game has a decidedly Portal-like look to it, but in Magrunner you're equipped with a "Magtech Glove" that allows you to change the magnetic polarity of objects around you. Polarity is represented by the colors red and blue; everything is based on magnetism, and by messing with polarities you'll make objects attract or repel each other in various ways to solve environmental puzzles, make your way deeper into the strange world around you and ultimately discover the secret behind the world's descent into madness.
