Journey of a Roach Announced
Hamburg, July 29th, in the year of our Lord 2013
– Cockroaches do survive everything, even a nuclear war: This is
what story and gameplay of Daedalic Entertainment’s upcoming 3D
adventure game Journey of a Roach are about.
Journey of a Roach, developed by the Swiss team of Koboldgames,
in co-operation with Daedalic Entertainment, takes players to a
sarcastic, post-apocalyptic world: Roach Jim and his sidekick
Bud are out and about to find their way from a deserted vault to
the Earth’s surface. Players steer them through classic point &
click adventure game puzzles. Certain challenges can be overcome
by using the roache’s natural features, though: Being roaches,
Jim and Bud have the ability to crawl up walls and on ceilings,
as well as on items.
Players use the third-insect-perspective to guide Jim and Bud
through the 3D comic world. There will be no written or spoken
dialogues in Journey of a Roach, by the way, as the insects are
using their very own, easily understandable signal language.
Koboldgames and Daedalic Entertainment scheduled Journey of a
Roach for release in November 2013, for PC and Mac.
