Magnus Positive Phototaxis is an out-of-the-ordinary adventure game that dives into a hallucinatory world filled with outlandish characters, symbols, and traces. In this horror game, be prepared to get your mind blown by its oddity through eerie visuals and uncanny illustrations. 

Get lost in the atmospheric journey to Magnus Positive Phototaxis, solve puzzles by combining specific objects in the mystical realm of reality, and find new meanings in existence and mind. This is the third installment of the Magnus-verse tetralogy, succeeding Magnus Failure and Magnus Imago and preceding Lazarus A.D. 2222.

Analyze surreal illustrations 

Magnus Positive Phototaxis revolves around the surreal aspect of its illustrations, going beyond what is perceived normal and deemed real. It fuses a good amount of adventure, logic, and exploration to make its players think outside the limitations of reality. Despite its tendency to appear illogical and unsettling, this game speaks a language of reflection and a certain level of depth that people fail to see but exists within themselves. 

Although part of a series, this is a standalone game that does not require its players to play or even know anything about the other games that belong to the series. They are similar in presentation and illustration, but no clear distinction connects all the games. The only thing you ever need here is an open mind to interpret and analyze. 

At first glance, all the illustrations seem like a bunch of metaphors huddled together without meaning, as if taking the route of surrealism for a certain level of edginess to appease younger audiences. In addition, these are likely to appear as pseudo-intellectualism with no cohesion. However, this game allows you to reflect introspectively, deepening your understanding in a lot of aspects.

Introspective gameplay 

Overall, Magnus Positive Phototaxis is a trippy game with mind-bending illustrations that delve into the world of mystical reality filled with symbols, characters, and traces. Combining a mix of exploration and reason, this game allows its players to read between the lines and think outside the box for a better understanding of the context presented. Consequently, the visuals have the tendency to appear incohesive with no actual meaning.
