Geostorm guide - tips and tricks for beginners

While we'll have to wait and see how upcoming disaster movie Geostorm pans out, we can play the game right now and it's actually . . . pretty good? It's a tactical puzzle game much like Lara Croft GO and its kin, and that's a good thing.

The puzzles can get tricky right off the bat, so we're here to help you out with a few strategies for getting through the early stages of the game. Let's get to it.

Plan ahead

Before you get around to running around your surroundings, study up on your environment. It’s helpful to examine potential pitfalls and traps before you dive in head on. Plus, it will help you pinpoint puzzles and give you time to consider solutions from a distance.

Explore everything

With that said, once you give the area a preliminary check, don’t hesitate to explore every nook and cranny of a room. Each stage of the game has optional objectives that will grant you special rewards. By exploring every piece of a stage, you’re more likely to stumble onto these optional objectives.

Stay alert

Be on the lookout for environmental hazards. Electrified water will kill you instantly, so take a look before you jump into flooded areas. You should be able to find breakers to turn off the electricity. Alternatively, you can find objects to push into water and hop your way across to safety.
