From the good people who bought you the impossibly addictive Canabalt, but Fathom is pretty much the exact opposite of what their breakout game represented.
In Canabalt you pressed one button to jump, and that was all. Simple, addictive and easy to understand. Fathom, though, is something else entirely. We’re not even sure if we want to explain the game to you, partly because we don’t want to spoil the surprise and partly because we’re not really sure what it’s about ourselves. Nevertheless, all you need to know about Fathom is that it starts off as a platform shooter and then veers off somewhere quite unexpected. Don’t forget – the word ‘fathom’ has more than one meaning.
