In case you need confirmation that Tangiers is still surreal and eerie, the new alpha trailer will remove that doubt. If anything the game has upped the level of horrifying, jet-black bizarreness. But as Kyle our intern justifiably asked as I was writing this, “Do we have any indication Tangiers will actually be anything outside of surrealistic imagery?”

It’s definitely a stealth game in the vein of Thief and Deus Ex, but with less of the feeling like you are delicately springing a series of carefully-designed booby traps. But there’s plenty of dreamlike freakout to go around, with allusions that would tickle the fancy of William Burroughs and dadaist poets, according to the devs.
