Mipumi has shared a new trailer for its turn-based tactical folktale Howl, which will be released on Nintendo Switch in the coming months.
Set in Medieval times, you are alone in a world that has been terrorised by a plague that turns people into wolves. The developer has used “living ink” to create the game’s visuals, a flowing art style “that paints the story as you play.”
You must rely on your weapons and your wits to survive, planning up to six steps in advance to outmanoeuvre your opponents – plotting out your attack while crafting your own prophecy and weaving a continuous piece of scripture during the fight.
The developer has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
- Foretell the actions of your enemies in tactical, turn-based combat
- Beautifully illustrated in a unique, living ink artstyle
- Unlock and upgrade new skills like shadow step, exploding shot and more
- Save villagers from the claws – or howl – of the wolves
- Play through 60 levels in 4 chapters
- Plot your route on the world map and pick your battles wisely
Howl will be released digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide in November 2023.
