Overview
Description

In Magrunner: Dark Pulse you play as Dax, a Magrunner trainee equipped with a magnetic glove that lets you polarize and move objects to solve intricate puzzles. Set against the backdrop of the Cthulhu Mythos, the game blends high‑tech training facilities with cosmic dread across more than 40 challenging levels. The single‑player experience pushes reflexes and ingenuity as you navigate futuristic labs and the endless void, confronting nightmarish creatures while mastering magnetic manipulation on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.

Teslagrad is a 2D puzzle‑platformer set in a richly detailed steampunk world where players control a young boy exploring the mysterious Tesla Tower. Using magnetic and electric powers, you manipulate metal objects, reverse gravity, and solve intricate environmental puzzles without a single line of dialogue. The game relies on atmospheric visual storytelling, guiding you through the fallen kingdom of Elektropia as you uncover the secrets of the ancient Teslamancers. Its hand‑drawn art and ambient soundtrack create an immersive solo experience across multiple platforms.
