We’re looking at the first game by a brand-new English indie studio, just founded this past February. Its name is IMMERSIV GAMES, and personally, based on their first title whose release will be announced soon, I think they’ve chosen their name very well. It’s called Arcadian Days, a relaxing narrative adventure of exploration and discovery set in beautiful and dynamic landscapes, where we’ll be accompanying young Miela and her dog Tola through a gripping and visually captivating story.
Arcadian Days is a first-person exploration adventure where, through the eyes and experiences of Miela and her dog Tola, we’ll discover stunning landscapes in a constantly changing dynamic environment. Our choices will shape the narrative, making sure that every journey is unique and unforgettable. Want to take a peek at what Arcadian Days looks like? We’re dropping its Official Reveal Trailer here, courtesy of Game Trailers:
A Beautiful World to Explore
The world of Arcadian Days is completely dynamic, and it will be shaped by the choices you make and the secrets you uncover. Those decisions will influence the narrative and Miela’s relationships with the world around her, guaranteeing, besides surprises along the way, strong replay value. Miela will explore the environment from an innocent and curious perspective while we help her venture into her unique and wonderful journey.
The game offers an organic narrative experience that unfolds through our interactions and observations within the game world. Situations and narrative instances will arise naturally and will be shaped by our actions, which ensures that each playthrough feels different and personal, one we’ll be able to experience again and again by choosing different options that lead us down new paths and let us discover other aspects of the world.
Interaction with the Dragobete family will be a strong point to keep in mind, since it’ll be up to us to deepen the relationship and gradually discover the traits and motivations of each of its members. Also, we’ll have to carefully observe the subtle changes that will happen in the landscape and the environmental details that will suggest stories in development, which will one way or another encourage us to explore and participate even more in the world around us.
There will be no difficult quests here, no combat, no guides, other than our own instinct, Miela’s curiosity, and her dog Tola in a world full of secrets waiting to be discovered. In this game, we won’t find right or wrong paths, only experiences that will be recorded on the “Story Map,” giving us the same freedom an innocent child has to explore and discover the world around them, with the sole purpose of provoking intense and emotional feelings.
So…
Arcadian Days is being developed in UE5, which will ensure an incredibly immersive and vibrant experience, something you can see from the beginning in the video above. The sad note is that its official release date hasn’t been announced yet, but you can go to its Steam page and check its requirements, as well as add it to your Wishlist. Yep, you’ll find it down there. As for us, since we’ve got to wait, how about we meet in the comments and chat about what we think of this original concept? You know gamer, we’ll be reading you! 🙂
