A novel use of fluids, but sometimes scuppered by cumbersome platforming and the annoyingly happenstance physics.
"Vessel" is a game with an intriguing story centered around Arkwright, who has the power to bring ordinary matter to life. The game features splendid mechanics with a variety of liquids, each with unique properties, simulated for stunning effects. Combined with an excellent soundtrack and stunning atmosphere, the game presents puzzles that require creative use of the simulated fluid and 'Fluro' creatures.
