The Quarry (Android & iOS)

Supermassive Games

The Quarry is a survival horror interactive drama video game played from a third-person perspective. In the game, the player assumes control of nine different teenagers who must survive a night at the Hackett’s Quarry. The player must make different decisions, which can change the character development, the plot, and the relationships between different characters.

All nine playable characters may die by the end of the game, and each character potentially has 10-12 different ways to die. Supermassive expected the game to last for about 10 hours, though early death of certain characters may cause the game to end earlier at around 7 hours. Due to the game’s branching storyline, it has many endings, and at the end of a playthrough, players will be given different collectible cards that depict the fate of each character.

Once the player completes their first playthrough of the game, they will unlock Death Rewind, which allows them to undo three character deaths in each subsequent playthrough. However, if the player pre-ordered the Deluxe Edition, they’ll have the Death Rewind for their first playthrough.

Players can disable certain gameplay elements such as button mashing, quick-time events, and aiming and shooting, allowing them to progress in the game with minimum input. The game features local and online multiplayer. In local multiplayer, players take turns to control different characters, while in the online mode, seven other participating players can vote in key decisions.

Players can participate in voting by only downloading the demo version of The Quarry. The game also features a movie-only mode in which the player can set the personality traits of different characters and then let the story play out.
