Faraday Corridors: Press Kit

The Game

Faraday Corridors: Flip. Reveal. Rotate. Rush. Activate the exit.

Faraday Corridors is a cerebral, minimalist grid-based tactical puzzle game. Guide one or several pawns through electric corridors, flip switches, rotate rooms, hold down pressure plates, collect every energy cell before reaching the exit. Sometimes there is no way back: a cell collapses for good once the last pawn steps off it.

Then do it again, as fast as you can. Rush Mode lets a pawn glide while you hold a direction, and every level hands out bronze, silver, gold and platinum medals, plus a place on the online Hall of Fame.

From the first corridors of Chapter I to the most extreme puzzles, the difficulty climbs gradually, and the grid stays readable all the way. Eight short tutorial levels sit right in front of the mechanic they teach.

Built for Steam Deck as much as for the desktop: the interface is redrawn at 1280x800 rather than upscaled, the game ships a native Linux build, and Steam Cloud carries a save from one to the other.
