On the 7th of August seven people vanished from the Swamp Hotel... but not without a trace. Unravel the mystery of this mass disappearance by finding out about the guests and their activities, preparing yourself for a shocking surprise.
One thing leads to another in this game, pay attention to little details and collect everything you can find. To activate certain parts of the game, you need to WEAR the right object and click the object you want to activate with it. Make sure to turn your animation override off for the animations to work properly.
Suffugium is a project of the Squidsoft Collective. Even on a short visit (and this is without exploring the narrative in detail) you get the sense of a city that’s been walled off from a horrific catastrophe, and has subsequently made serious sacrifices with individual liberty, to keep the people safe. (While still making sure they keep shopping.) So what we have is a 3D commercial space that also functions as social commentary and immersive cyberpunk fiction.
The teleport location is the main plaza with a rather large sculpture looming over you. The sculpture itself is a rather scary looking representation of a man in chains. The inscription at the bottom reads, "Legum servi sumus ut liberi esse possimus" which is Latin for "We are servants of the law, so that we may be free."
As you explore the sim, you will notice that the law is always around you. Police drones will ask you to stay still while they scan you. Then they will tell tell you to go about your business. However, they call you "sub-citizen." Interesting way to welcome people. LOL
You're told to scan your hand when you enter the city. The scan allows you to obtain the sim rules. Basically, the rules ask you to be nice.
You'll see different views around every corner of destruction and normalcy from wrecked vehicles to operating stores.
In a couple of places like the theater, I tried turning on media but didn't encounter any type of media.
As you tour through Suffugium, make sure you look in the "nooks and crannies" and try clicking on things. There are surprises everywhere including secret passages. The manhole covers open and take you into the sewer system which allows you to get to different parts of the city underground. You may want to dress more the part. My short skirt and high heels took away from the fact I was going through a sewer.
When I emerged from the sewer system, I found myself at a diner. Robots tend to be your shop keepers around Suffugium like in the diner.
I've been to Suffugium three times now. Each time I discover more and more. I've discovered a type of game in a tower near the arrival plaza. A racket needs to be purchased for L$200 to play. There are even observation areas. Secret passages in the towering hotel/apartment building were found.
Suffugium is one of those times that you need to take your time to explore. There are so many things to see here. This is why I call it "an exploration paradise."

Pteron, as defined by Wikipedia is "an architectural term used by Pliny the Elder for the peristyle of the tomb of Mausolus, which was raised on a lofty podium, and so differed from an ordinary peristyle raised only on a stylobate, as in Greek temples, or on a low podium, as in Roman temples." I can see this influence especially in the structure in the center of the sim.
When you arrive, you are on a platform high above the water with a "wall" behind you. The wall is actually a door and opens as you walk towards it. It's a marvelous place to explore. I started right clicking on objects and found that they teleported me to other places in the sim. So, don't hesitate to click on things.
Explore the sim. You may end up in a box or even an usual vehicle. Have fun!
