Cosmic Top Secret is an autobiographical mobile game about the Cold War, but it’s far from a staid affair. Archival photos, film clips, and documents are nestled in an adventure game with tons of charming whimsy and personality. It’s developed in partnership between Klassefilm and Those Eyes, and it will be out in 2018 for Apple and Android devices and possibly for PC and Mac. It’s also one of the nominees at this year’s IndieCade Festival, an international games event that’s been showcasing independent titles since 2005.
