Mechanics

In EQQO, the player does not directly control the main character. Instead, we play the role of a supernatural force that helps the hero to the next level. Each loaction is a logical puzzle that must be solved. You can do this by interacting with different objects (for example moving or knocking them down) or ordering the boy to perform a specific action.

In production, perspective also plays an important role. The world is presented in an isometric view, and each loaction can only be observed under specific angles imposed by the game. The player must therefore switch between the available views in such a way as to locate all the elements necessary to solve the puzzle.

During some sequences, the player must order EQQO to put down the egg he is carrying. In the later stages of the game, creatures known as” shadows" appear, which can take over the egg if it lies too long.
