Green Man Gaming Publishing and Investigate North today announced the release of Aporia: Beyond The Valley, a first person puzzle adventure, on PC. This mysterious adventure tells the story of an ancient civilization in ruins in a unique and immersive way – without the use of dialogue and text.
Developed by Investigate North from Denmark, Aporia: Beyond The Valley is a first person puzzle adventure backed by Ole Søndberg, the producer of Wallander and The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. In Aporia: Beyond The Valey, players wake up in a deserted civilization, and explore the land within the Valley to try and uncover the mystery of what happened in this world.
Niels Wetterberg, Producer at Investigate North, said:
“From the beginning, our focus with Aporia was always to use the environment alone, without any dialogue, to convey an immersive story of an ancient world in ruins. Today, we’re excited to share the story of Aporia: Beyond the Valley with the world and can’t wait for everyone to explore and discover the open world in their own way.”
Here are the game’s key features:
- An immersive, detailed world created in CryEngine.
- Explore a story about humanity, technology and civilization told without text or dialogue. Uncover clues, devise theories, and make up your own mind.
- Avoid traps and solve brain twisting puzzles made to make you question what happened in The Valley.
- Explore bizarre architecture and overgrown nature, choosing your own path in the game’s non-linear world.
- Completely original musical score.
Enjoy!

Hmmm, interesting. 🙂
“brain twisting puzzles”
I avoid any activity that requires me to exert my limited brain power. When this game gets an online multiplayer arena shooter mode, call me.
LOL
If you don’t exert your brain how are you going to come up with all the creative insults that are necessary to be the best in multiplayer arena shooters?
When I play multiplayer arena shooters I don’t even wear headphones and my TV is muted. I just give the screen the middle finger every now and then to illustrate my displeasure with other players.
Man, play talos principle, its freaking awesome. One of the best games i ever played.
Aporia, lol this is pretty funny cause the title itself means “question” in Greek.
Funny how John didn’t make a comment on that when he’s probably Greek too (i mean, Papadopoulos..)
😉
He is professional.
I never said otherwise and tbh, it wouldn’t make him unprofessional making a comment about a word meaning in a different language.
?
Which begs the question if you gonna make a game about Celts why use a Greek name?
Everyone’s constantly ripping off the Greeks. It’s the ultimate cultural appropriation! ;D
Looks good bettter than that trash the witness. Talos principle is still the best though,
After being scammed by Green Man Gaming and saved by Paypal, there’s no way I’m supporting them by buying this game (regardless of how good it is).
