In the just-launched Doomsday Vault, the Earth’s climate has collapsed and it’s up to you to save the few remaining plants. This Apple Arcade title promises puzzles suitable for all ages.
Help save the world’s threatened plants in Doomsday Vault
The vault in the name of this action game is real, though it’s actual name is the Svalbard Global Seed Vault. It’s near the North Pole, and holds food crop seeds that would be needed in case of a global catastrophe. In Doomsday Vault, it’s your mission to add plants to this repository.
Flightless, the creators of this post-apocalyptic game for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV, says players will “adventure around the world in your robotic suit and use your suits tools and abilities to explore challenging environments. Navigate desolate landscapes, flooded cities and derelict buildings to find seeds from critical plant species and return them to the safety of the vault.“
Part of the challenge comes from evading robots left behind by corporations to guard their facilities, but this isn’t a typical fighting game. It’s about puzzles, instead. And it supports MFi controllers, including certain Xbox and PlayStation ones.
