Gameplay

The plot revolves around a small spark named Turnon, an alien space object, which flew through the atmosphere and accidentally hit in the city's power station, where it came alive from the strong impact of the current and became a rational being. As a result of the accident the city remains without electricity, and now Turnon looks like a fireball with a pretty face, has to return the light back into the homes of citizens. Turnon strolls through the suburban areas, has fun at school parties and repairs the wiring in a private house visits the power station and restores the observatory, as well as fights with unexpected enemies.

Professor Brain, a scientist from the power station, found Turnon at the time of the accident and decided to help him. Using minibus equipped with an electric generator, they move around the city from one district to another and restore the power supply.

TurnOn has five episodes, where players explore the city and turn on the light everywhere it's possible or planned by the plot. There are two types of levels:

  • Exploration levels, where players have to restore the city's power station, help a little girl to get home, repair the wiring in the private cottage, throw a school party, then visit an observatory and run a dron[clarification needed]. Every chapter has a lot of situations without electricity, which should be found and resolved.
  • Music levels, where you can climb to the high-voltage wires and moving in the rhythm of the music, collect positive charges avoid negative ones.
