Mobile Adventure Game Year Walk Goes Live At Midnight
The anticipated 2D adventure-puzzle game, Year Walk, for iOS goes live tonight at midnight.
Year Walkers begin their walk on midnight Christmas Eve or New Year’s Eve, and they walk to see the future and ponder their fate. Walkers must go without food or drink during the trek, which can lead to detrimental physical effects. Balancing on madness, it is the walk through the woods that creates the adventure.
Year Walk also includes a free companion app, a reference guide to the elements of the game, which probes deeper into the Swedish folklore.
With a shadowy art style, an unnerving soundtrack, creepy baby dolls, and a horse in a suit, Year Walk looks to be a unique looking mobile-gaming experience. The game goes live at midnight in the iTunes store. For a better idea of its gameplay and atmosphere, check out the official trailer below.
