Independent development studio Tensori announces that POOLS, an experimental exploration game, is now available on Steam.
POOLS offers an immersive experience akin to exploring an art gallery. The absence of monsters and dialogue contributes to an oppressive atmosphere, enhanced by using sounds to create a realistic environment.
Featuring six unique chapters, each lasting 10 to 30 minutes, POOLS provides a mysterious and tense journey where players navigate mazes and uncover the evolving world around them, each with its own intrigue.
POOLS draws inspiration from the internet phenomenon ‘Backrooms Poolrooms’, with influences including artists like Jared Pike from 2022, Mortain Colors from 2022, Matt Studios videos from 2022, and the game Anemoiapolis: Chapter 1from early 2023.
While the first two chapters maintain traditional Poolrooms aesthetics, subsequent chapters offer unique interpretations.
Immersive art gallery-like experience with emphasis on observation and sound.
Maze-like environments challenge navigation skills.
The absence of traditional game elements creates an oppressive atmosphere.
Sound design enhances immersion without background music or dialogue.
Evolving game world across six unique chapters with distinct mysteries.
6 Chapters offer playtime of 10 to 30 minutes each.
