The latest game from Trine developer Frozenbyte, stealth-action title Shadwen is scheduled for a May 2016 launch on PlayStation 4 and PC.
Playing as an assassin on her way to kill the king, you must follow the game’s one rule of never getting caught, as it’s game over if you do. To help with the stealth, time in Shadwen only moves when you’re moving, and if you make a mistake, you can instantly rewind time.
Here’s the full description for Shadwen:
This is a stealth-action game where the only rule is to remain unseen. Stay hidden – or the ruthless guards will kill you on sight!
Shadwen, an assassin on a quest to kill the king, has a chance encounter with an orphaned girl, Lily. She follows Shadwen on her dangerous journey, but when the ruthless guards get too close, Shadwen must take action right in front of Lily’s eyes.
Will Shadwen risk the girl’s budding trust by resorting to violence, or try and find another way while keeping her real purpose concealed?
To kill or not to kill – that is the question.
You have the option of playing lethally or non-lethally from the very beginning of the game. Depending which route you take, the story will be different.
Check out the Trailer:
“The game stars the titular time-stopping assassin and her young charge, whom she must escort through the darkness by trapping guards and staying out of sight. It’s the Finnish studio’s first game since last year’s Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power.”
