Pendulo Studios is a highly successful developer who is well known to those who love adventure games. The studio, which made its name with its exquisite Runaway series, continued to delight the players with successful works such as The Next Big Thing, Yesterday and Yesterday Origins.
However, the studio’s latest play, Blacksad: Under the Skin, in 2019, was perhaps not well received because of a different style experiment, point ;n click genre, and the release of the game was quite this. Alfred Hitchcock – Vertigo, I hope, will make Blacksad forget their mistakes, pendulo will be a worthy game.
Inspired by Alfred Hitchcock’s cult 1958 vertigo, “The Fear of Death,” the play’s publisher, Microids, wants us to immate a new kind of psychological thriller by playing on the boundaries between a real and fantasy world.
Here’s what it’s about:

Although no one was found in the wreckage, Ed insists he was traveling with his wife and daughter. Due to the trauma suffered in the incident, complaints of severe dizziness begin. He begins therapy and tries to find out what really happened on that tragic day.
Prepare yourself for the most disturbing investigation in the human mind: The truth is sometimes worse than madness.
