Kona II: Brume (NSP, XCI) ROM + v1.0.3 Update

Kona II: Brume seamlessly weaves adventure, exploration, and narrative-driven gameplay into an absorbing detective mystery. This immersive first-person narrative extends the Kona interactive saga, immersing players in the enigmatic mist that engulfs a rural mining village in 1970 Northern Canada.

In 1970, Northern Québec faced an unsettling phenomenon—the Brume, an eerie mist that severs the village from its tranquil reality and disrupts the natural equilibrium. The question lingers: its origins?

As Detective Carl Faubert, you reprise your role, delving deeper into Kona’s surreal enigmas. Traverse the wintry landscapes of Northern Canada and uncover an unsettling truth. You’re not alone; others stranded by a devastating avalanche share your journey. Uncover the hidden, ominous secrets concealed within the Brume.

GAMEPLAY

Kona includes survival and supernatural elements with buildings to explore, which contain loot (tools, light) and can serve as shelters. The threats include cold (solved by setting up fire) and wolves (which can be shot or distracted with raw meat).

There is a stress level, which increases by seeing upsetting scenes, dealing with tough situations, or having accidents. A higher stress level will decrease the sprint speed and add a shakier aim, but Carl can calm himself by smoking cigarettes and drinking beer that is spread around.

The navigation of the region is done by Carl’s truck in a first-person viewpoint. While driving, Carl can hold the zoomable map in his right hand in case something needs to be checked. The game has Carl’s thoughts being narrated as he goes through clues to find out what has happened to the town, along with puzzles that support the story.
