Mechanically, painting is more like placing large dynamic stickers rather than using your own brush strokes. Painting these areas will clear the dark vines that block your path to the next section. The premise doesn't make a tonne of sense, but its message and execution are sweet and full of heart, much like the rest of the game.Īsh is determined to restore Denska to its former glory and each area of the town, including the lighthouse, has hanging fairy lights over some parts of buildings. He sets to work, using his vibrant artworks to push back the darkness infecting the town. These friendly genies bid him to use his artistic talents to paint the town using a new magic brush, which restores the electric lights in the area. Small drawings of the genies Ash drew as a child are scattered around the city and, when combined with the power of the lighthouse ghost, bring his paintings to life. Unfortunately for Ash, his bullies also enjoy running amok in the ghost town they tear up his art book and push him into a cable car bound for Denska lighthouse (known for housing a ghost), starting him on a new journey. Ash's love of art and memories of better days draw him to the run-down area, despite his parents' warnings. The town has been corrupted by an oil spill and negative emotions, and is now a desolate maze-like neighbourhood by the water. In Concrete Genie you play as Ash, a boy who dreams of bringing his former home, a fishing port called Denksa, back to life. It's a very simple and short experience that focuses mainly on light puzzling, 3D platforming, and a little stealth, but its charm and general sense of playfulness really make it a worthwhile adventure. In Concrete Genie you get to take something drab and dead and bring it back to life with colour, love, and warmth. Restoring the place which harbors your fondest childhood memories is a cute and almost noble goal.
