The Talos Principle: Road to Gehenna

2025-11-19

My next Egyptian-themed game is "The Talos Principle's" only DLC, "The Road to Gehenna." While it's only one of the themes, it has been realised fantastically, both visually and muscially, and it's represented in around one fourth of the game, so it's a strong candidate. I played the base game exactly 4 years ago, in November 2021. I promised myself to play it earlier, but time has flew by. But now I'm back.

"The Talos Principle" was a game that smashed me into the floor. I merely expected logical puzzles, but got sucked in with the plot that was unraveling slowly through entries in terminals placed here and there and audio logs from one of the scientists behind the Talos project. Then I found out that there are puzzle outside the puzzles (or between) and more layers opened up. It's probably one of the most captivating games I ever played. So the DLC was a must at some point.
