In my play through I had to get toy horses in a playground to shoot a tree branch to pieces with lasers that came out of their eyes, and was also killed by an evil giant teddy bear. In fact, the proliferation of ducks (yes, really) throughout Master Reboot speaks to the game’s more bizarre elements.
Each of these memories is also littered with blue rubber ducks, collectibles which contain messages to the protagonist from the living world.
A memory is completed upon reaching a white cube, upon which the player is returned to the Soul Cloud. In a flying memory I had to find a way to unlock a cabin door while avoiding Seren.exe, who was patrolling up and down the aisle. In a childhood memory I had to find three keys spread throughout a house in which my perspective was acutely distorted to reflect the age of the protagonist at the time. The puzzles present in each of the memories are varied enough and, prevent the overall game play experience from becoming too repetitive. The puzzle and horror aspects of the game are primarily evident in the game play experience presented by these individual memories. In the midst of this lies Seren.exe, a virus that exists within the Soul Cloud and manifests in the form of a scary looking girl who pursues the player throughout these memories. Instead, they exist as signposts on a journey in which the player is largely attempting to reveal the identity and fate of Master Reboot’s protagonist. These experiences are by their very nature fragmented, because they are incomplete. In order to play through a specific memory I merely had to walk up to a series of doors, each of which literally ‘housed’ one of these memories. These memories are located within the main base of the Soul Cloud and are given quite literal names: beach memory, park memory, graveyard memory, and so on. It is largely appropriate, given the nature of the storyline and the fact that the primary goal of the player is to experience a selection of memories that belong to a character whose true presence in the Soul Cloud is somewhat of a mystery. The disorientation and desolation of the opening sequence establishes this theme: the sparse visuals, the stripped back music and the lack of overall direction speak to the bare, minimalist approach Wales Interactive has taken here.

The game features a unique visual style, atmospheric soundtrack, intriguing story-line and slick adventure game action. To house your Soul, a family member (or yourself before you die) purchases an island on the Soul Cloud where the server will generate rooms, houses or skyscrapers that hold each and every memory from the deceased’s past, or of memories of their choosing. The Soul Cloud is filled with floating islands, each island looks like a town village or city filled with rooms, skyscrapers and houses that hold people’s memories. In the not too distant future they have created the Soul Cloud, a giant server that holds the data of your soul and memories when you die. It's an exploration game with action and puzzle elements set across 34 unique environments. Master Reboot is a haunting first person sci-fi adventure horror game set inside the Soul Cloud. The Soul Cloud - saving your past to secure your future. All these memories saved for your digital soul and your family to revisit again and again. That favourite holiday, happy moments from your childhood, meeting that special someone for the first time. Upload your soul to our dedicated servers and relax knowing that a part of you will live on, for eternity.

As such, Master Reboot – a Myst-esque excursion by BAFTA Cymru award winning developer Wales Interactive – struggles to combine its great ideas into a compelling whole. An intriguing narrative and a clever setting can go a long way in a sci-fi adventure game, but it’s a difficult thing to pull off.
