Clear obscure: Expedition 33 Since we played it in our first impressions, it showed to be a title with soul and with everything to transcend, since it is one of those memorable titles for its characters, history, gameplay and the incredible universe created around the Lore of this new IP. This is why this new installment is emerging as one of the most memorable games within the genre of the last decade.
What does Clair Oscur have: Expedition 33 What other games of the genre do not?
The game itself will resonate in the players and will talk about the power of their argument, since it has everything to generate a true connection with the player.
However, of having an incredibly elaborate and well -counted agrument, its premise is far from what we have seen before in the already very worn history of good vs. evil.
In this new property we will first put ourselves in the role of Gustave, element of expedition 33, along with other characters such as Maelle, Luna and Sciel. His mission is to leave Lumiere, a kind of devastated Paris, to stop “La Pintora”, a mysterious figure that annually decrees the death of people according to the age he paints in a monolith.
From the first hours, this game immerses us in a story of human survival, where we will have a unique emotional connection with the characters. This is where Sandall Interactive talent shines, which despite its size, has managed to build an enveloping narrative.

An RPG in shifts that takes the best of the genre
For lovers of the role in turn, the study has prepared a different proposal with games such as Paper Mario, since the combat system requires a constant participation of the player. Well, we will not only have to select an attack, magic or defense; Well, you must press buttons at precise times to enhance actions and thereby ensure its effectiveness. One of the most robust points is active defense, because dodging, jumping, blocking and even counterattacking are part of the nucleus of the game and our expertise with synchronization when pressing the buttons.
The progression system allows you to adapt the difficulty to our own rhythm, for example in our case we choose to gain experience by repeating fights to facilitate our battles with the main enemies. The key is to learn the enemy patterns and the movements that can do the most.
The experience of our characters is linked to the level increase, assigning points to attributes such as attack, defense, HP, luck and unlock new special skills that are sometimes linked to our weapons. Unlike other games of the same genre we do not have equipment as such, except the weapon. In this section, the Pictios will make a difference, since they grant special attributes, which once learned, can be used by other group members in exchange for light points, this gives it a unique balance that allows us to adapt to our team to taste.

The French essence in a fantasy world
Something that does not go unnoticed is the influence gala within the game with an atmosphere that emulates the beautiful Époque and with elements such as an eiffel tower destroyed, even enemies in pampering or the character’s own dress.
All this frames the incredible visuals that the game has, in our case we had the opportunity to play it on a PC with the following configuration:
With this we managed to play it at a native resolution in 4K with an average greater than 70 FPS managing to appreciate what is undoubtedly the final version. Something worth noting is that the game also managed to run it in an Asus Rog Ally X to an HD resolution with the 17W profile above 40 fps, something that allows you to play for more time portable.
