Description: Your mother recently passed away, and her mysterious childhood home in a small town called Tranquil Cove was passed down to you. In an attempt to learn about your mothers mysterious past, you go to investigate. Nothing could prepare you for what you find there…
Review: While there really isn’t a whole lot to ‘Tranquil Cove’ at the moment I can easily see the potential it offers. The only level available to play at the moment is level 1 of the non-story mode (there are many more levels and a story mode yet to come) and the idea is you need to find and collect 5 souls in the form of blue, glowing orbs. But of course, things are not that easy because all you have is a camera for a light and it runs out of batteries fast (I wish there was an option to make it have an infinite battery). What you can see of it is OK and the one playable level is a fair old size. There is real potential here and I do give it the thumbs up given the small sale price I paid, but without that extra content, this game is as good as dead.
