The thing that distinguishes Unbound: Worlds Apart though is the fact that you can open up portals and take advantage of the special properties of other worlds. As you acquire additional abilities you sometimes have to visit past locations in order to reach areas that you previously weren’t able to reach.Īt this point the game may sound like every other puzzle platformer. You use these abilities to reach various objects which you need to use to progress in your adventure. This is mostly done through platforming as you are initially given a single jump and you unlock additional abilities such as a dash and wall jumps as you progress through the game. The basic goal of the game is to get from location to location avoiding the dangers that block your way. Can Soli gather the strength to stop the evil threat before it is too late?Īt its core Unbound: Worlds Apart is a puzzle platformer mixed with some elements of a Metroidvania. Soli’s world is put into danger when an evil force breaches Soli’s world through a portal destroying everything that gets in the way. Soli has the ability to open portals between worlds to take advantage of the unique qualities of each. The game takes place in a universe where every world is connected to one another through portals. In Unbound: Worlds Apart you play as Soli, a young mage. Unbound: Worlds Apart is a fun and engaging puzzle platformer with a unique twist on the typical game from the genre. Outside of being a puzzle platformer which I generally love, I was intrigued by the whole portal mechanic as it looked like it added some interesting possibilities to the game. Today I am looking at Unbound: Worlds Apart which released last week.

Because of my love of the genre, I have played a lot of games from it in the past with various twists impacting how you platform and solve puzzles. The genre honestly might be my favorite as I really enjoy both puzzle games and platformers. Any regular readers of Geeky Hobbies will likely know that I am a huge fan of puzzle platformers.
