On the first level, you get a crystal that activates the suit’s “tether” from there you can look at any surface that is close enough and press a single button drawing your character to the point where you aimed. However, that’s not all the tricks the suit has. The mobility the suit provides makes exploration very interesting because the game is allowed to build in a vertical direction as well as a horizontal one. The suit even has the ability to “power jump”. The player is given a suit that allows him to run around and jump great distances, even controlling which direction he’s falling while in midair. A Story About My Uncle ends each level abruptly and jars me out of the trance it has weaved, but when the next level starts, I forgive it because I’m filled with a strong desire to explore the new location. Each level is lovely to look at and fills me with wonder. Everything felt really interesting and unique and it felt like a house I wanted to explore.įrom there through a number of steps you get teleported to another world and I have to be honest, I loved looking at the levels in this game. In fact, I had a lot of fun exploring the house because of all the items in the place and because of how many hidden easter eggs, including a youtube link, there are. Still, I seem to have gravitated towards story-based games, so what’s the harm in one more?Ī Story About My Uncle starts with the player entering his uncle’s house and finding it empty, The house is wonderfully decorated with a ton of tchotchkes in it. I knew almost nothing about it and had received A Story About My Uncle over a year ago in the Humble Indie Bundle 18. A Story About My Uncle was suggested to me by one of my Steam friends.
