Players have to cover the town in art while also avoiding the bullies that are destroying it. “Concrete Genie” appears to involve unlocking different areas by painting the walls and drawing the genies. By drawing whatever the genies want, Ash can fill up the Super Paint meter and use art destroy the mold. The genies are afraid of the organism and it’s an obstacle that blocks progress. It’s a powered-up ability that lets players get rid of dark mold that infests the town. The genies also have another vital function: They supply Ash with Super Paint. To get around that, players can draw a fire genie and that two-dimensional creature will walk across the wall and burn debris that blocks an alternate path. Once in a while, they come across areas where they can draw genies and these creatures help players by getting rid of obstacles.įor example, Ash will come across a gap that’s too wide to leap across. To access new areas, players have to draw on walls and that activates lights strung up around the town of Denska. “Concrete Genie” leverages this mechanic into its progression. I wanted to draw happy little trees on every wall and punctuate the picture with camp fires, stars and Northern Lights. The process reminded me of Ross and it had that same appeal.
It’s more akin to laying out art rather than actual painting, but “Concrete Genie” makes players feel like they’re actually making something as they graffiti the dilapidated walls. Players move the cursor using the motion controls of the DualShock 4. To paint, players hold down the R2 button with an object selected and the game automatically throws it on the wall. Players can initially choose from grass, flowers, trees, the aurora borealis and an apple. By pressing R2, Ash pulls out his paintbrush and draws on nearly any wall on the game.
