Karma. Incarnation 1 Demo

Karma. Incarnation 1 is an odd name for a game. Then again, this is a very strange game. The kind we like, and the kind we think you might like too. It’s a 2D point and click that’s wonderfully animated and features some interesting puzzles.

When the adventure takes place in a cartoonish universe where planet-size creatures devour entire planets you don’t feel the need for explanations. You would, however, like to find out more about those worlds and their stories.

That's one of the main things on which Karma. Incarnation 1 focuses on, making your curios about the world you just entered. It does manage to do that and with great success. Right from the short but dramatic intro clip you get to understand that the journey ahead of you is going to be unusually epic, with emphasis on unusual.

It's the sort of game that takes you out of the comfort zone other point and click games have offered and plunges you into a very strange and unusual world. The kind in which its inhabitants range from oddly shaped birds to even sillier formed creatures. Nonetheless, it's all interesting, fascinating at times, and those impressions come from a very short demo.

When it comes to how you play it, Karma. Incarnation 1 features the gameplay style that you can find in most of the other games that belong to this genre. However, this point and click does have its share of original stuff. Along with the world itself, the way you and other beings interact with each other seems so random and unexpected. It’s wonderful.

Eating a plant with thorns allows Pip, the main character, to mutate and grow a lovely spike on his head. That will later on be used as a ‘weapon’ while making his way through the ever surprising world.

One thing gamers have always enjoyed about games is seeing what worlds, characters, and events their creators can envision. Karma. Incarnation 1 manages to pull you into a wonderful world that’s full of creative surprises.
