EDENGATE: The Edge of Life, a game released in late 2022, invites players into a world grappling with the aftermath of a pandemic, where isolation and uncertainty are palpable. Players step into the shoes of Mia Lorenson, a brilliant young scientist who wakes up with no memory in an eerily silent hospital. Her journey is one of piecing together her past and uncovering the fate of Edengate's inhabitants. The gameplay, largely a walking simulator, focuses on guiding Mia through environments, triggering memories and narrative fragments through object interaction. While puzzles are present, they are generally simple. The story aims for emotional resonance, reflecting pandemic anxieties, though its disjointed nature and delayed reveal of its thematic connection have been points of contention. Visually, the game offers atmospheric 3D environments, supported by strong sound design and commendable voice acting for Mia. However, criticisms often center on the confusing narrative, simplistic puzzles, and a generally short, unfulfilling experience. Chapter 2, "Laboratory," marks a significant shift as Mia transitions from the sterile hospital to a space deeply connected to her past as a scientist. This setting offers tangible clues about her life before the cataclysm. The laboratory environment is rich with detail, featuring scientific equipment and research materials that feel authentic. As Mia explores, glowing "memories" appear, revealing fragments of conversations and interactions, notably with a colleague named Liam. These flashbacks highlight Mia's dedication to her work and hint at a groundbreaking discovery that caused friction. A primary obstacle in this chapter are the strange, pulsating tentacles blocking Mia's path. These are not enemies in the traditional sense but environmental puzzles. Mia discovers that strong light sources can make them retract, clearing the way forward. This mechanic, involving the manipulation of light and shadow, serves as a metaphor for Mia's own struggle between clarity and confusion. Progression is linear, with Mia solving simple puzzles like moving trolleys or finding a keypad code, such as 0052, to access restricted areas. Scattered collectibles, including notes and a book titled "Difficult Bosses," offer further insights into the backstory and the unfolding mystery. Chapter 2 effectively deepens the narrative, introducing core gameplay elements and themes that define the rest of EDENGATE, allowing both Mia and the player to start unraveling the enigma of her past and the devastated world of Edengate.
