Original fantasy
summary
Sequel Teslagrad 2 reuses core electro‑fantasy tech from the first game while relocating action to rainy Western Norway and plainly shows what was built: a movement‑heavy platformer where electricity blinks through water, enemies (draugr) become dangerous when energized by player powers and explode, and a resurrecting antagonist—Galvani resurrects with electricity—anchors the plot. Worldbuilding comes from field trips, silent visual storytelling (wordless comics and mechanical theaters) and cross‑platform development; the original sold 2 million copies. The game ships simultaneously on consoles, Switch and PC.
