In Cataclismo you must craft fortresses to defend your warriors against hordes of strange nightmare creatures. Real-time strategy meets tower defense base-building in this dark fantasy game. The Steam page says that new puzzle abilities involve gravity manipulation and mind transference – so we've got those baffling mechanics to look forward to when this thought-provoking odyssey releases this November. But what's immediately different is the tone, lots of talking about renouncing humanity and not repeating the mistakes of their squishy human predecessors. The demo takes place in the opening hour of the game, with a string of fairly straightforward tutorial puzzles. The Talos Principle 2 may have the same puzzle design philosophy as the first, but this time there's a much wider scope concerning worldbuilding and story. It's been almost a decade since the first game was released, and Croteam hasn't strayed too far from its foundations. The day will not be complete without a visit to a local Turkish Rug cooperative.If you thought the puzzles of the first Talos Principle were mind-bending, this second one is going to blow its predecessor out of the water. We spend the remainder of the day traveling through the Turkish countryside arriving in the port city of Kusadasi where we spend two nights.

Today, the town has fallen into obscurity and nothing remains. Nearby Colossae is well-known throughout Christian circles as the receiver of Paul's letter to the Colossians.

Laodicea contains many acres of ruins to visit including a stadium and remnants of a sophisticated water system. This connection between the cities lies behind Paul’s reference to Hierapolis and Laodicea in his epistle to the Colossians (Col 4:13). It was likely the hot springs of Hierapolis (in contrast to the cold mountain springs near Colossae) that combined to bring application to the 'lukewarm' Laodiceans (Rev 3:14-22). According to tradition, the Apostle Philip lived and was martyred in Hierapolis. Hierapolis, meaning 'Sacred City,' was an ancient center for pagan cults until it was transformed into a Christian center in the first century.
