Marvelous Europe has a brand new story driven, Metroidvania inspired title coming our way. The game is called Mandragora, and it comes to us from developer Primal Game Studio. The game is stated to be both challenging and rewarding.
In Mandragora, Man has surrendered the world to monsters. The people hide what little hope they have behind walls of stone while their leaders bask in the riches. This world is not what you desire, go forth at night and take it back.
From the press release:
Istvan Zsuffa, Creative Director at Primal Game Studio said “Mandragora is a genre-blending mix of everything we love about our favourite games, which made it a challenge to find the right publisher who understands our vision for a title that doesn’t fit into just one box. That’s why we’re so glad to be working with Marvelous Europe to help bring our game to the players on all their favourite platforms. We’re thankful for all the fan support so far and can’t wait to continue this journey together!”
“We’re thrilled to bring Primal Game Studio’s vision to the world.” added Marc Melton, Managing Director at Marvelous Europe. “Mandragora is a fantastic project, with huge potential, marking a new step in how we work with development studios and we’re excited to have found such great partners.”
In Mandragora, mankind has surrendered the world to the monsters. People hide away behind walls of brick and palisades of ignorance, constructed by their leaders. Joy and delight are coveted jewels, out of reach of the masses. This is not the world you were promised. Travel by night and take it back.
