Oddball game Pavilion to light up the Vita and PS4

File under "what the heck do we do here..." as another Indie game gets ready to sweep on to the Vita and PS4. Described as a "fourth-person exploratory experience," players must offer guidance, influence and subliminal control to the characters, while manipulating the environment, which sounds like a highly stylised puzzle game to me.

With an ambient soundtrack and lush painted graphics, it could be amazing or just one of those odd, not-quite games that pop up from time to time. The game is due out early next year and will get its first full showing at TGS.
