Indika the nun talks to her travel companion in third-person adventure Indika.

You might assume thatIndikawill be dour, given that it’s a story-driven game about a nun in a grey, cold, alternative Russia. Then you watch its trailers and find surrealist imagery, genre-hopping, and a bleak sense of humour are part of its arsenal, and suddenly it seems, to me, irresistible.

It’s out now.

I love this trailer, and several of its previous trailers. Well done, trailer editor.

Edwin spoke to the co-founder of developer Odd Meter, Dmitry Setlov, late last year, who explicitly described Indika as “boring”, even as it’s shot through with what Edwin described as phantasmagorical flourishes.
