An alarming UN report said the past eight years are on track to be the eight warmest on record, with an acceleration in sea level rise, glacier melt, heatwaves and other climate indicators. If you’re looking for something to pass the dry spell of game releases, you could pick it up, but I wouldn’t expect too much.The UN's COP27 climate summit kicked off Sunday in Egypt with warnings against backsliding on efforts to cut emissions and calls for rich nations to compensate poor countries after a year of extreme weather disasters.

Overall, Doki-Doki Universe is a partially charming title and is fairly interesting at points, but gets repetitive quite quickly and resembles a teenage questionnaire a lot of the time. It’s bubbly and light and Christ, does it get repetitive quickly.

The background music is similar to that of a children’s morning TV program. This further concreted in my mind that QT3 was, indeed, a child at heart. The voices of all the characters are spoken in incredibly basic noises which reminded me a lot of the adults from Peanuts. This feeling runs over into the soundtrack too. It’s sort of like QT3 is very much a child at heart and you’re seeing the world through his eyes. The art-style mirrors that of a child which adds quite a nice feeling to the game. It all got rather repetitive until I changed this mindset and just sort of let the game wash over me. You very much have to take the mindset of ‘story’ rather than ‘game’ when you dive into Doki-Doki Universe which I made the mistake of in the first few hours. That’s about it really in terms of gameplay. This then apparently tells you about yourself, but felt more like one of those questionnaires you’d find in teen magazines to tell you which boy band member you liked or which house you were sorted to in Hogwarts. These consist of you being given a situation or question such as “what does this scene look like?” and then you have to pick one of X answers. Some of the hidden presents on the worlds are unlocked depending on how the characters feel about you or how you treat them.Īs the aim of the game is to increase your humanity, you will frequently partake in psychological exams. “But why would you want them to dislike him?” I hear you say. Using this information, you can make them like or dislike QT3 respectively. You can also unlock each citizen’s likes and dislikes by talking to them and their neighbors. Whilst you do this, you’re collecting more and more objects that you can spawn in and, whenever you feel like it, you can travel back to your home planet and decorate it with your findings. You go round completing these tasks for people and then jet off to another planet to help them too. For instance, there’s a snowman who’s cold so you spawn him a fireplace you found under a bush to warm him up. You do this by roaming the planets small surfaces, finding hidden presents, and then using these hidden presents to spawn items that the inhabitants request. This is proven by visiting different planets and catering to the needs of their inhabitants. You play as QT3, a robot abandoned by his human family who has been collected by Alien Jeff and will be reprogrammed unless he can prove that he possess humanity. There’s no sense of completion, but more a sense of humbleness. See, there’s no real objectives or goals other than exploration and understanding.
