Infra is an experience, and for that one particular kind of nerd, Infra will really resonate with.

In Infra are placed in the world of Stalburg, a city teetering on the brink of storm fueled by greed, apathy and decay.
As an analyst named Mark, you are initially tasked with inspecting a hydro dam and a water tunnel, but there's a lot more in store for Mark than just those two places.

The type of game that is Infra is a classic walking simulator, it's a linear experience that takes you from industrial setting to other industrial settings; variety is here, from an abandoned steel plant to multiple water treatment plants, some power plants and lots of underground stuff. Puzzles make up the main challenge, most of these become familiar but there are certainly some novel puzzles and the occasional high tension, timed challenged puzzles that force you to act fast before you become a statistic to societal apathy. The main aspect of puzzles usually involve finding stuff, and flipping certain switches or valves.

Puzzles set the pace, they restrict you from progressing, on-top of that your job is documenting the instances of dis-repair with a point and shoot camera that eats batteries like competitive eaters glob down some hot dogs. Game play mechanics include managing your flash light batteries and camera batteries. Fortunately there is a lot of batteries to be found, being frugal with the flashlight negates the experience, especially in later levels which are so very dark. If so inclined there is an easy way to modify one of the game file (Config files) to modify this.

As I mentioned, this game will resonate for some. The world is rendered well, with a wide variety of industrial set pieces. The settings I found really stand out and feel authentic, a mixture of old and newer stuff. It rewards curiosity and exploration and players who like details, there's an abundance of little details that help fill out the lore of the game.

There is a story, but it's light. It could be better served by having a plain text reader for written documents - some in game documents can be hard to read. Also, Mark is a solitude person and the world is absent of other folks, more unique monologuing would help bring out the story, and be prepared to hear the same following phrases ad nauseam "That's not good", "Someone should fix this" etc.

It took me about 30 hours on a reasonable curious play through to beat the game, so don't expect a quick in and out. I also managed to miss a lot, and I thought I was being careful.
If a walking sim, themed in light industrial horror seems appealing this game will be for you, it will also make you never trust another elevator.

game was very fun and confusing spending most my time walking around confused or trying not to die tat all changed wehn i fund a radiated teddy bear named dave, dave is life dave is love sadly dave was ripped from my hands at the end of chapter 7 therfor i cannot recommend this game #justicfordave
