Reading Time: 2 minutes

After the Bunker Survival, it’s going to be the second open-world game from the studio. This time we’ll race against time in search of a mysterious Serum.

Players are going to be thrown into the unknown world. Which, like a maze without an exit, plays on our sanity.

Every second count

Without any knowledge about how, why, and who sent us here, we’ll have to not only survive, but most of all we’ll have to find the answers to all the questions and manage to escape safely. We quickly realize that to survive we’ll need a mysterious Serum that will extend our life only for a couple of hours. An unequable race against time begins.

“Game Island is focusing on the enigmatic plot and, true to this genre, the fight for survival in the unknown world where death is just a matter of time.
In our latest survival project, we want to bring the element of mystery. We meet our character right after he gets an implant with a microchip and his bloodstream is filled with the deadly virus. After waking up, he sees a timer on the forearm, which indicates the remaining lifetime.”Michał Ojrzyński | CEO Game Island

Find the cure

Through the game, to access specific areas with the serum, players will have to upgrade their equipment with alien technology. The world will be split into different Biomes with different dangers and creatures hiding behind the corner, protecting places with the cure.

“With the minimum equipment and a few clues, we’ll try to survive and solve the mystery of this world. We’ll explore the unknown to find out the truth about the Serum. Within a certain time, we’ll have to get to the right place to find our cure. To reach certain areas and zones, upgrading our equipment is going to be crucial for the player. Taking advantage of the surrounding world and using the right resources will also be a very important part of the gameplay.” Michał Ojrzyński | CEO Game Island

Players will struggle not only with the virus but also with the whole world. The Player’s curiosity and will for survival will drive the gameplay and encourage them to reveal the secrets of the Serum. Developers ensure that a variety of options and gameplay mechanics will satisfy all lovers of the genre and will guarantee many hours in front of the computer.
The premiere date is still a secret but the studio will keep us updated on their Social Media channels and a dedicated Discord Server.

Geckos Games Launches Momentum – The Most Adrenaline-Charged Live Sports Game Ever Built

Geckos Games launched Momentum, a patent-pending real-time sports prediction game unlike anything in the market. THRILLZZ Free Social Sportsbook gone live as the exclusive launch partner on the opening day of the world’s biggest Soccer tournament.

Five Minutes. One Question. Pure Adrenaline.

Every five minutes of a live match, Momentum asks players one question: which team has the Momentum right now? Not who will win the game. Not what the final score will be. Who has the upper hand – this minute, on this pitch – based on every pass, attack, and pressure play happening in real time.

Makes it different from anything that has come before: the Momentum shift on a single event. A yellow card. A saved shot. A dangerous run. Every on-field event recalculates the balance – and players watch their position move with it in real time. It is not a black box. Players see each event land inside the game – the moment it happens on the pitch.

Then comes the timer. As the five-minute window counts down to zero, the tension becomes almost unbearable. Players who are in the win zone are watching every second, knowing a single event in the dying moments can flip everything. The last few seconds of every round are unlike anything else in sports gaming – raw, unscripted, impossible to put down.

Zero Latency. Official Data. Real Stakes.

Momentum is powered by an official match data with zero latency. Every event flows instantly into the game engine. There is no delay, no approximation. What players see is what is happening on the field right now.

This is not a simulation. It is not a simplified model. It is live sport, translated into a game in real time and that distinction is everything.
