It activates itself after crashing on an unknown planet and since the user of the suit does not respond, her routines immediately kick in, and she seeks medical attention to save the pilot.
Since the AI has full access to the suit functions, she can take over control.
The game is played in a 2D side-scrolling environment.
The suit can be moved left or right and it can jump as well.
The environment can be examined using a flash light where the beam can be guided in any direction.
It highlights interactive parts of the world, which can then be interacted with.
Interactions include conversations with multiple dialog options, interacting with computers and tools, examining the environment and picking up objects.
The majority of the game plays like a classic adventure game.
Through careful observation puzzles need to be solved.
Items are stored in an inventory.
They do not need to be combined, but are used in the environment to progress.
Through conversation options, often with computer systems, progress can be achieved that way as well.
There is also a very different side of the game, played with action elements for several parts.
Initially ARID is restricted through her own routines, but by bringing her pilot in dangerous situations, emergency routines can be triggered permanently, opening up the options to use and upgrade a gun, activate camouflage and so on.
In these sequences robots need to be fought, using cover in the environment and timing attacks carefully.
Just like the flash light the gun can be aimed in any direction.

About Nintendo Wii U
The Wii U (2012) was commercially Nintendo's least successful home console, hampered by market confusion over whether the GamePad tablet controller was a new device or a Wii accessory. Its low sales mean smaller overall print runs across the board, and several first-party and indie darlings have already become noticeably pricier than their commercial performance would suggest, since there are simply fewer copies in circulation.
Gamevaro tracks The Fall for Nintendo Wii U with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding The Fall to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This WIU release dates back to 2014.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for The Fall, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo Wii U titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
