Adventure games aren't nearly as popular as they once were, but for anyone who grew up playing titles like Day of the Tentacle or Sam & Max Hit The Road, they retain a fond place in our hearts. After spending some time with the demo for Daedalic Entertainment's The Whispered World, it looks like fans of the genre are going to be in for a major treat when the game appears later this month.
The Whispered World takes place in a fairy tale setting and stars Sadwick, a morose little clown who hates working for his family's depressed traveling circus. Part of the boy's foul mood is due to the fact that he hasn't had a good night's sleep in months, thanks to a recurring nightmare that implies he'll have something to do with the end of the world. Sadwick's only friend is his overgrown caterpillar, Spot, who follows him wherever he goes.
Daedalic Entertainment return to the world of Silence with a sequel to The Whispered World. The Digital Fix rejoins Noah and Spot to point, click and be moved.
So sad these marvels are overlooked by many. Daedalic really publishes the greatest adventure games these days.
Gamereactor spoke to Creator Marco Hüllen and Product Manager Ralf Kessler and they said The Whispered World sequel is set to be more narrative focused. "It's a couple of months between when it's really finished, but I'm very happy."
TTP: Point and click adventure games have been making a strong comeback in recent times thanks to a lot of high quality and interesting releases. Earlier this week we have talked about an old school inspired game called Factory 47 and today we can confirm that yet another point and click adventure game has been made available on the App Store.
