When I previewed Dry Drowning three months ago I had a big issue, an almost game-breaking issue, the game simply wouldn’t do as it expects people without means to do – stick to its place. Aspects of the game weren’t showing on-screen, I was struggling to get things to simply work. Fortunately, developers Studio V have fixed any technical issues, allowing me to plough through a futuristic, dystopian, noir detective story where it’s time to solve some crimes.

Only, these crimes are gruesome and within the horrible city of Nova Polemos, a place under the tyrannical rule of the upper class, where elections are rigged and the usefulness of a person is determined by a test. Fail that test and, well, things aren’t looking good for you. If it weren’t for the time difference, this being set in 2066, I imagine Andrew Ryan would have very much liked to visit.
