digitec plays: We hunt air pirates in the Zurich indie game "Airheart"

Translation: machine translated
After nuclear war and reformation, the Zurich-based indie studio Blindflug is taking to the skies. In "Airheart - Tales of Broken Wings" you fight against air pirates and high-tech drones. Let's see how long it takes to crash land. The stream starts at around 11am.
"Today we're going to game a fishing game". With this promise, I lured my colleague Ramon Schneider in front of the camera for today's Let's Play. As a passionate fisherman, he immediately took the bait. And my statement is not that wrong. In "Airheart - Tales of Broken Wings", you take on the role of Amelia, who earns her living with sky fishing.
However, she can't just sit back with a cold beer and cast her line like Ramon. She straps herself behind the wheel of her self-tuned flying machine and gradually climbs ever higher and more dangerous realms in pursuit of the biggest fish. Things are wild in the world of Granaria, a city above the clouds. You will be attacked from all directions on your raids. Air pirates, drones and occasionally particularly tough boss opponents are out to get you. I felt a bit like Captain Baloo in a fight with Don Kanaille. Marvellous.
Shots and collected fish provide you with money and materials to buy or build new planes and equipment. This is the only way to survive the increasingly tougher enemies that you will encounter at the highest levels.
"Airheart" will be released on 24 July for PC and PS4 and is the first game from Zurich-based studio Blindflug to be released for Sony's console.

Philipp.Rueegg@digitecgalaxus.chBeing the game and gadget geek that I am, working at digitec and Galaxus makes me feel like a kid in a candy shop – but it does take its toll on my wallet. I enjoy tinkering with my PC in Tim Taylor fashion and talking about games on my podcast http://www.onemorelevel.ch. To satisfy my need for speed, I get on my full suspension mountain bike and set out to find some nice trails. My thirst for culture is quenched by deep conversations over a couple of cold ones at the mostly frustrating games of FC Winterthur.
