The rich took off to Mars quite some time ago and now the toxic Earth is ruled by the orphans of the apocalypse. But one of these cubs is extra curious in the ways of humans compared to the others. Raised by the wolves, equipped with a dead astronaut’s helmet with Nostalgia radio and well skilled for parkour traversal of this dead man’s land. Are you brave enough to embark with him on this short yet dark adventure across the dangerous surfaces of our planet, overtaken by the forces of sci-fi nature and ready to face-off any unwanted intruders?

The Cub fits in well with the rest of the games developed by Demagog to showcase the Great Climate Catastrophe story arc. Once again it is a game that carries a deep message, while not failing to entertain as a videogame. The shift in perspective between Golf Club: Nostalgia and The Cub is a fascinating way to present the same story but as two sides of the same coin. The challenge is not trivial, yet not painstaking either, the game being entertaining for newcomers and veterans alike.

The new platformer from demagog studio, creators of Golf Club: Nostalgia, draws from the classics to expand a curious and visually attractive post-apocalyptic universe, although its gameplay can clumsy, frustrating, and repetitive, and its narrative is less ingenious than its predecessor. It still manages to convey nostalgia and sympathy while exploring its beautiful 2D apocalyptic scenarios.
