Mechanics

Deadlight: Director's Cut for PC, PS4 and XONE is a 2.5D platformer with strong emphasis on exploring subsequent locations, solving puzzles and figuring out how to deal with encountered zombies. This is because Randall rarely takes possession of firearms, which anyway lack ammunition most of the time. Therefore, we have to use an axe or other items we find. Moreover, the game features many arcade sequences, as well as environmental mini-puzzles, like moving boxes, that allow us to reach in other way inaccessible places.
