a lo-fi futurist walking sim. a cyberpunk game that questions what (or if) we value spiritually. a phone theme collector. strictly speaking, in trackless you'll be interacting with your environment, typing verbs, or, in some instances, answering quizzes, in order to progress. but this mechanic is tightly wrapped in a slick mobile phone GUI and presented in a world that is simultaneously alien and eerily familiar. this game isn't perfect. like the text-based games it draws inspiration from, there are some frustrating moments in trackless where progress is limited by vocabulary. luckily, in this always-online generation, these frustrations are mitigated by keeping a browser alt-tabbed. all in all, i found trackless to be another interesting experiment in the larger first person exploration genre, with a place, visual style, and identity all it's own.
