Description:
Embark on an extraordinary subterranean odyssey with Little Orpheus, a technicolor side-scrolling adventure crafted by the acclaimed storytellers at The Chinese Room and brought to PC by publisher Secret Mode. Originally launched on Apple Arcade in 2020, this definitive edition hit Steam on September 13, 2022, remastered with enhanced visuals and bonus content that elevate its whimsical yet gripping tale to new heights. Set in 1962, as NASA races to the moon, Soviet cosmonaut Ivan Ivanovich takes a bold plunge in the opposite direction—into the Earth’s core aboard his exploration capsule, Little Orpheus. What follows is a rollercoaster of humor, peril, and discovery that defies belief.
After vanishing for three years, Ivan emerges with a wild story and a missing atomic bomb, landing him in a tense debriefing with the fearsome General Yurkovoi in a secretive bunker beneath the Ural Mountains. Through Ivan’s recounting, you’ll traverse a vibrant, ever-shifting underworld of lost civilizations, prehistoric jungles, and undersea kingdoms teeming with fantastical creatures like dinosaurs and the menacing Menkv tribe. This 2.5D platformer blends cinematic storytelling with light puzzle-solving and responsive platforming, offering a bite-sized yet richly layered experience across nine episodes—including the bonus chapter A Rush of Onion to the Head and the intriguing Lost Recordings Mode.
Little Orpheus shines with its retro-inspired aesthetic, drawing from classic adventure films like Flash Gordon and The Land That Time Forgot. The remastered PC version boasts high-resolution textures, enhanced lighting, new animations, and a world-class score by BAFTA-winning composers Jessica Curry and Jim Fowler, now in immersive 5.1 surround sound. Award-winning voice performances bring Ivan and the steely General to life, weaving a narrative filled with Soviet satire, absurd twists, and heartfelt moments. Whether you’re dodging monstrous foes, swinging across chasms, or unraveling the mystery of Ivan’s journey, every step is a visual and auditory delight.
Perfect for casual players and seasoned adventurers alike, Little Orpheus offers accessible gameplay that never overshadows its compelling story. Customize your experience with full controller support and dive into a world where socialism meets the surreal. Will Ivan’s tale prove true, or is it all a clever ruse? Join this unlikely hero on a quest to the center of the Earth and beyond—a subterranean epic you’ll never forget. Comrades, the adventure awaits!
