It sets the tone, the gloves come off, and you’re introduced to one of the first hurdles in Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey – getting started. Complete this brief tutorial, and you’ll find yourself in control of an adult.
The game was designed by Patrice Désilets, creator of the Assassin’s Creed series, and it has several similarities to the 2007 original - it’s a fantastic proof-of-concept with some ambitious ideas, but is often let down by finicky controls and some inherent limitations of open-world games that I’ve talked about before.Īfter a brief opening cinematic that highlights the hostile world your clan inhabits, your first goal is to get to grips with the controls and scramble back to your settlement as an infant, dealing with a heightened state of fear that obscures your vision and distorts your hearing (get used to this now!). 10,000,000 BC, tasked with surviving and evolving over the next 8 million years.
Rather than the common post-apocalyptic setting, you take control of a clan of hominids, starting out in (presumably) East Africa circa. Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey is complex survival-game with a distinctly human-twist.
