Teslagrad is a 2D puzzle platformer developed by Rain Games. Released in 2013, it is set in a steampunk-inspired world and revolves around the use of magnetism and electricity to solve puzzles. Players control a young boy who must navigate through a mysterious tower, using magnetic powers to manipulate the environment and overcome obstacles. The game is characterised by its lack of dialogue, relying on visual storytelling and atmospheric design to convey its narrative. The Kingdom of Elektropia is under siege by a tyrant king who rules over its people with an iron fist. When a city-wide manhunt comes for him, a young boy escapes into the Tesla Tower. Once home to a sect of technological wizards known as the Teslamancers, it is now a forgotten vault of ancient technologies and forgotten history. You are on your own, with only the tools of the lost Teslamancers and your wits to survive.
