Honey's Quick Impressions
- We had the opportunity to dive into the demo of THE WORLD NEXT DOOR and after catching a glimpse of the story, alongside the puzzle-style gameplay, we're totally stoked to play the full version to uncover more behind the secrets of Emrys. The puzzle portion of the game was quite intriguing because it incorporated a matching style of puzzle, akin to that of say Tetris or Lumines, and by doing so you can unleash powerful attacks on the enemy. Some blocks allow you to heal but most of them contain elements like fire, wind, and ice that you can use to your advantage. Not much else was really conveyed in great detail within the demo, so it has left us wanting more! We're looking forward to it!
