"The game follows Isaac, a baby with apparent adult-level intelligence, realizing he has psychic powers that let him move stuff with his mind and hear the thoughts of his family members, and that put him in the middle of a much larger conspiracy. It's about three hours long and makes use of Before Your Eyes' signature eye-detecting tech to deliver something that still feels novel as it's iterating on its predecessor's ideas."
"People of a certain age remember the first time they discovered the Windows XP Media Player visualizer. Your favorite song was given a pulsing form like it was about to explode from your computer. Lumines Arise, the latest entry in director Tetsuya Mizuguchi's series uniquely remixing the falling blocks of Tetris, takes that approach. It's both a sort of precursor and an analogue to the brilliant audio visual puzzle experience that was 2018's Tetris Effect."
Three games are offered as weekend play options, with the games remaining available for later sessions. Goodnight Universe is available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch 2, and Windows PCs, and centers on Isaac, a baby with adult-level intelligence who discovers psychic powers to move objects and hear family thoughts, revealing a larger conspiracy. The game runs about three hours and uses eye-detecting technology in iteration of Before Your Eyes; players are advised to play Before Your Eyes first. Lumines Arise is available on PS5 and Windows, directed by Tetsuya Mizuguchi, and delivers an audio-visual falling-block puzzle experience akin to Tetris Effect.
