When you think a video game involving archaeology, you might think of Lara Croft zip-lining from a snowbank and headshotting a couple of dudes who are after a magical artifact. But Inkle’s Heaven’s Vault takes a different approach, landing you on an alien planet where you must decipher a mysterious language and unravel the secrets of a lost civilization. The adventure game is due out later this year on PC and PlayStation 4.
Heaven’s Vault stars archaeologist Aliya Elasra, who’s investigating a series of alien moons called the Nebula. Along with a robot companion known as Six, she explores and interprets the hieroglyphics that she finds. It’s a narrative adventure set in the distant future with a branching storyline that incorporates the players’ translations and decisions into what happens next.
