The Count Lucanor – A Deliciously Dark Action Adventure out now PSVita

Brushing aside princesses, unicorns, rainbows and other sickly-sweet clichés that have become the staple of modern fairy-tales, The Count Lucanor goes back to the more grisly and bloody genesis of such tales.

The Count Lucanor is an amazing mystery and horror adventure set in a bygone time. Playing as the reluctant hero, Hans, you must make important decisions which will reveal alternative endings, hidden secrets and different solutions to fiendish puzzles.

Featuring a retro feel that falls halfway between 8-bit and 16-bit styles, The Count Lucanor makes a deliberate doff of its cap to classic titles that it draws inspiration from; Zelda, Yume Nikki, Silent Hill and Dark Souls. The familiar gameplay style allows players to quickly become immersed in the game’s rich and twisted narrative.

The Count Lucanor’s haunting sound track is supplied by none other than Germany’s very own seventeenth century tunesmith, Johann Sebastian Bach. Using chiptune tools, the game features a transformed series of hidden gems from the composer to create unique soundscape that will remain etched in your mind forever.

Gameplay features include:

• Exploration: Search Tenebre Castle placing candles on the ground to light up your path.
• Conversation: Talk to NPCs to get important clues and learn the hidden history of The Count Lucanor.
• Stealth: Hide under tables and behind curtains to go undetected.
• Puzzles: Use the items you found wisely to progress.
• Skill: Avoid traps and enemies in the castle by anticipating them.

Once upon a time, there was a poor boy named Hans who lived with his mother near the woods. On his birthday, the boy had no presents nor sweets. He got so upset he decided to leave home for good. Before he left, his mother gave him his grandfather’s cane, some cheese and three pieces of gold. Hans walked into the forest in search of adventure. Soon it was night and the boy was really scared, so he tried to go back. But then, a quaint kobold happened to cross his path and Hans decided to follow him to a castle. The kobold told him he would inherit great wealth if he passed a simple trial… guessing his name. Trapped in the castle, Hans will live a spooky mystery, fantasy and horror adventure to become the new Count Lucanor.
