![]() ![]() Your protagonist is the silent type, donning a space suit and trudging her way through Theseus, an abandoned and derelict space station and research facility full of lethal, talking rocks (this is important so bear with me). That being said, Faceplam Games’s The Swapper, which is a strident combination of two flavors I should utterly hate, actually strikes a solid balance between its sci-fi heritage and its attempt to tackle more universal questions. What I bitterly expect tends to be things like bald space marines, caricaturish aliens, and hammy, overwrought writing. I’m even leerier, these days, of games which purport to tackle existential or ontological issues-who we are, where we come from, why we exist, and so on. I’ve conditioned myself to be extremely leery of games with sci-fi or “outer space” settings.
