Control

shooter, sci-fi, environmental puzzles

Control (2019) is a third-person action-adventure game developed by Remedy Entertainment and published by 505 Games. As a player familiar with the genre, you'll recognize its blend of supernatural elements with intense action gameplay. Key features include: 1. A metroidvania-style structure set within the shape-shifting Oldest House, headquarters of the Federal Bureau of Control. 2. Protagonist Jesse Faden's telekinetic abilities and transforming service weapon, offering varied combat options. 3. A narrative heavily influenced by the "New Weird" literary genre, drawing comparisons to the SCP Foundation and works of David Lynch. 4. Remedy's signature blend of live-action footage with in-game storytelling. 5. Ray-tracing technology showcasing impressive lighting and reflections (on supported platforms). 6. A paranormal setting that evolves the studio's previous work on games like Alan Wake and Quantum Break. The game received critical acclaim for its atmosphere, worldbuilding, and physics-based combat. It also features two story expansions: "The Foundation" and "AWE," the latter connecting Control to the Alan Wake universe. Control's unique approach to environmental storytelling and its focus on exploration alongside combat set it apart within the action-adventure genre.
