Softonic review

A beautiful and imaginative story game

Zed is an engaging story-telling game for download with spectacular locations and an intriguing main character. This VR-compatible single-player narrative game includes captivating voice-overs, and the narrative is compelling as you explore different scenes from the character’s life.

This unique walking SIM game features an aging artist with dementia. As you journey through surreal landscapes, you piece together his fractured memories and the highs and lows of his experiences. Complete puzzles along the way to unlock new locations and create a gift for his granddaughter. Similar games include Stray and Minecraft Story Mode.

Compelling, emotional narrative

Each location is a memory from the artist’s life, and unlocking puzzles takes you into different rooms where you search for items that reveal more information. There is a journal to read and fascinating dialogue, including voice-overs from highly experienced video voice actor Stephen Russell.

Many character twists also keep you on your toes, and you experience a full range of emotions while you explore the artist's happy and sad memories.

Beautiful locations

Each memory takes place in a different dreamscape environment with stunning images and beautiful scenery. The stunning graphics make you feel you are in a dramatic world with gorgeous buildings and beautiful natural scenery to explore. Each item slowly reveals more memories and details that build a fascinating personal history of the artist.

Puzzles

Besides a fascinating story, there are jigsaw slide puzzles to solve that unlock new locations to take you into the next part of the story. There are two parts to the game: you engage in a treasure hunt through some beautiful locations and also help create a final work of art that will be a gift to the artist's granddaughter.

Unique, artistic game

Zed is a highly imaginative and artistic game. Each room and landscape is surreal and striking. Embark on an enchanting emotional journey as you relive the artist’s happiest memories and the sadder personal experiences of his life.
