Featuring a beautiful, detailed open-world and a haunting soundtrack, Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture is non-linear storytelling at its best. It is what we commonly know as Sony exclusive games and that in recent times they have made the leap to the PC. Sony keeps out its most direct competitor, such as Microsoft's or Nintendo's Xbox and its Switch -to a lesser extent-, but lets those names that have made it earn millions (and consolidate its PS2, PS3, PS4 or PS5 as the best-selling consoles) to reach computers all over the planet. So if you like, let's list them all those Sony games for their PlayStation consoles which, for whatever reason, they have considered exclusive and could not be enjoyed until recently on other platforms than those of the Japanese. Radios offer diary-like snippets, phones play out older phone conversations, motes of light coalesce to present a few seconds from key events as a kind of supernatural slideshow.So if you have a computer running Windows 10 or 11, you're in luck. The village is empty – a kind of English countryside Mary Celeste – but you seem to be able to tap into echoes of the events that triggered the absences. The story begins near an observatory on the outskirts of the Shropshire village of Yaughton. Let’s start with what the game actually is. It has all of these moments of real loveliness and effectiveness but also, for me, there’s an undercurrent of intense frustration brought about through the interaction systems and slight disconnect between story and environment. I played it when it came out on PS4 a while back but I’ve just worked my way through the PC version and can now tell you Wot I Think:Įverybody’s Gone To The Rapture won’t quite come together in my head as a unified experience. Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture is The Chinese Room’s newly-on-PC game about exploring an English village in the hopes of finding out where everyone’s get to.
