Just like the rest of the series, Syberia: The World Before is a point & click adventure game with a heavy focus on storytelling, along with the occasional puzzle to help keep things interesting. Syberia: The World Before does diverge from its predecessors, however, by giving you control over two different characters in two different time periods in order to offer you a better perspective on the world as a whole.

It's also worth mentioning that Syberia: The World Before is the last game the series' original creator Benoît Sokal worked on before passing away last year. So while he sadly never got to see it finished, his touch is definitely present within Syberia: The World Before.

As for what exactly all of this looks like in action, that you can check out through the recently posted launch trailer. Have a peek:

While the story seems as intriguing as ever, the puzzle aspect has been toned down quite considerably in Syberia: The World Before. As such, it's now more of a narrative-focused adventure than a classic point & click puzzler, so if you bounced off the series before because of how walkthrough heavy it could get on occasion, Syberia: The World Before might just be up your alley.

Whatever the case may be, you can learn more about Syberia: The World Before, as well as check out some of the player reviews, over at Steam. Enjoy!
