The puzzles in Styx: Blades of Greed will more than a single solution, thereby rewards players for being creative.
Cyanide Studio reintroduced Cloning and Invisibility mechanics to the series. The new material, Quartz, allows for Mind-Controlling and Time Shift abilities – serving as tools for players to creatively solve in-game puzzles.
The video game character, Styx, debuted in Styx: Master of Shadows – a title that was developed by Cyanide Studio and published in 2014. Styx: Shards of Darkness was the latest entry, having released in 2017.
