Rediscover the world through the innocent eyes of Mary Shelley’s infamous creature in this emotional adventure of exploration and self-discovery
Hidden Trap, in partnership with La Belle Games and ARTE France, announced today that the adventure game The Wanderer: Frankenstein’s Creature will join PlayStation 4 and Xbox One’s lineup in mid-March. In this exploration adventure, players take the role of the iconic monster, embarking on a moving journey of self-discovery. The final release dates and its price will be announced in the coming weeks.
As Dr. Frankenstein’s creation, you’ll start the game in the middle of nowhere, without any memories of your identity and origins. Spending time with humans, however, will transform your confusion into an endless stream of questions. Each step of the journey brings a new experience meant to shape your mind and, hence, the path you choose. Whether bitter or pleasant, these situations will lead you, somehow, to the truth. But will you be strong enough to face it?
The Wanderer: Frankenstein’s Creature was originally released on Steam, and was praised by the critics for its moving story and narrative and awe-inspiring art.
The Wanderer: Frankenstein’s Creature presents an innovative reinterpretation of the English classic ‘Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus’, published in 1818 by Mary Shelley. The game’s dark romanticism contrasts with the idyllic beauty of the 19th century-style painting of its settings, where lively landscapes that react to the player take centre stage.
