The Delusions of Von Sottendorff and his Square Mind Announced
Bilbao, Spain – September 29, in the year of our Lord 2015 –
Enter Baron Von Sottendorff, a well-to-do aristocrat, who
believes he's living the good life in early 20th century Europe.
What he doesn't know is that he's been trapped inside a
reproduction of his mansion created by his own lunatic mind and
it's up to you to help him escape his own madness.
The Delusions of Von Sottendorff and His Square Mind combines
the essence of traditional platform games with fiendish
environmental puzzles set against the surreal beauty of Von
Sottendorff's constructs. As you complete each level, you'll
receive objects that will help you unlock memories from his
life. The more memories you retrieve, the closer you are to
regaining his sanity.
"Ever since the announcement of the 3DS, I've always wanted to
create a platform game that blended elements of different genres
that could use the 3D effect to give users a different
perspective on how to solve puzzles," said Arturo Monedero,
co-founder and creative director of Delirium Studios. "The dual
screens allowed us to let the user control the Baron and the
position of each room independently of each other, the end
result being some insanely devious puzzles."
Unique Game Mechanics – Von Sottendorff is a non-traditional
take on the classic platform-puzzle genre as the good Baron
explores the constructs of his madness. Rather than just control
one character, players can also manipulate the 200 rooms in the
game by using the touch screen to solve puzzles.
Immersive Gameplay – Von Sottendorf's mind is filled with 8
different worlds, 40 challenging levels and 18 different types
of enemies.
Moving Story Line – Recover all of the Baron's lost memories and
discover the reason behind his descent into madness.
