Humble Games and Memorable Games have announced that On Your Tail is in development for Nintendo Switch.
Pitched as “a sleuthy story-driven life sim of relaxation, investigation, and knowing how to play your cards right,” you will have the chance to escape on a seaside getaway to Borgo Marina.
You play as Diana, who is in pursuit of the perfect summer vacation. For a curious spirit like her, that means three things: exploring her new surroundings as she gets to know the eccentric inhabitants; unwinding with some of the area’s iconic recreational activities; and getting to the bottom of some of Borgo Marina’s most puzzling local mysteries.
The publisher has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
- Visit a secluded village: Explore a beautiful Italian town by the sea, lovingly built from the ground up by the Italy-based development team at Memorable Games, and shape aspiring detective Diana’s summer in a third-person 3D narrative adventure.
- Uncover layers of mystery: Discover secrets big and small hiding behind Borgo Marina’s idyllic exterior. Search the village’s streets and shops for leads, and collect clues on characters, locations, and events to help unmask the thief who’s menacing the once-peaceful town.
- Draw your conclusions: Use a mix of investigation, interrogation, and deduction to unravel the truth through strategically engaging card-game inspired gameplay.
- Enjoy the ultimate escape: Cook delicious local cuisine, or try your hand at fishing (and make extra pocket money in the process). Hit the beach, play games at the arcade, or enjoy a night simply gazing at the stars. Borgo Marina is a leisurely sandbox, and how you spend your summer is up to you.
On Your Tail will be released digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide as a timed console exclusive in 2024.
