Imposter Factory | Freebird Games

Freebird Games, the makers of To the Moon and Finding Paradise, dropped a trailer for a possible third installment into the beloved pixel franchise.

Impostor Factory follows the story of Quincy, who, according to the game’s Steam page description, was “invited to a fancy parteh at a suspiciously secluded mansion.”

The description continues:

So he accepted and went; because even though the mansion was suspicious and secluded, it was also fancy and had a parteh.

In fact, it turned out to be so fancy that there was a time machine in its bathroom. Quincy could wash his hands and time-travel while he was at it. Talk about a time-saver!

But of course, then people start dying, because that’s what they do. And somewhere along the way, things get a little Lovecraftian and tentacles are involved.

While tongue-in-cheek, the description does offer the tantalizing prospect of time-traveling shenanigans, as well as a story “categorically out of its mind,” according to the devs.

The Steam page also boasts some fun features for the upcoming game, including:

  • A story that will make you curse at the screen
  • A cozy mix between adventure game elements and classic RPG aesthetics
  • Dialogues that read so wrong but feel so right
  • An espresso execution with zero filler and no time drains
  • long cat

Impostor Factory won’t be out until the end of 2020, but fans of Freebird Games‘ previous titles definitely have something to look forward to.
