'Dead Synchronicity: Tomorrow Comes Today' Gets Release Date

by Rainier on Feb. 4, 2015 @ 8:49 a.m. PST

Dead Synchronicity: Tomorrow Comes Today is an old-school, 2D point-and-click adventure game, featuring space-time distortions, concentration camps, a dystopian atmosphere ... and a dark, blood-stained plot.

A terrible pandemic is turning all of humanity into the Dissolved – the sick whose deliria provide them with supernatural cognitive powers... but also steer them towards a gruesome death.

The root of this illness seems to be the Great Wave, an inexplicable chain of natural disasters that destroyed all energy sources and communications and plunged the world into a chaos ruthlessly controlled by both the authorities and the army alike.

In Dead Synchronicity, you play as Michael, a man with no past, who must recover his identity and decode the two events that brought the world to the edge of collapse: the so-called Great Wave, an inexplicable chain of natural disasters, and a pandemic that turned humans into the “Dissolved”, infected beings whose sick bodies will eventually dissolve into blood. However, before they die their gruesome death, the Dissolved gain special cognitive powers. If Michael doesn’t hurry, he won’t be able to avoid the impending moment of “dead synchronicity”, when Time itself starts to dissolve.

As an homage to darker adventure titles, such as “I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream” and “Sanitarium”, Dead Synchronicity paints – using hand-drawn 2D art – a mature dystopian sci-fi scenario, and features classic point & click adventure gameplay elements.

Key Features:

  • Classic point and click interface
  • 2D graphics featuring a unique, expressionist style
  • Stunning dystopian sci-fi plot
  • Mature content featuring a dark, bloodstained story
  • Atmospheric soundtrack composed by the indie rock band Kovalski
  • Old school, progressive “open-world” immersive experience
  • HD cutscenes

Daedalic Entertainment will arrange full English and German localizations of the game, including the recording of voiceovers in both languages. Furthermore, Dead Synchronicity will feature Spanish, French, Italian and Russian subtitles as well.

Dead Synchronicity: Tomorrow Comes Today will be available via digital distribution (Steam) for 19.99 US$/ 15.99£/ 19.99€/ 299RUR/ 1980Yen on PC, Mac and Linux.
