Family Friendly Gaming News

 

 

11th February in the year of our Lord 2025 – Wales Interactive is proud to announce our partnership with Scottish developers Ant Workshop to bring the roguelike deckbuilder Into the Restless Ruins to PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch in Spring 2025. The game’s new demo (out now!) will be featured in Steam Next Fest this February, accompanied by a brand-new trailer showcasing the game’s unique mechanics, strategic gameplay, and rich Scottish and Celtic folklore.

This collaboration between two award-winning studios from Wales and Scotland unites our passion for innovative game design and rich storytelling. Together, we’re celebrating our shared cultural heritage—highlighting voices and traditions rarely represented in video games.

“Into the Restless Ruins delivers a distinctive gameplay experience, letting players construct their own dungeon using a deck of cards that represent rooms, corridors, and unique features. This blend of deckbuilding and dungeon creation offers a fresh strategic challenge, and we’re excited for players across all platforms to dive into the depth and creativity it brings to every run,” says Tony Gowland, MD of Ant Workshop.

David Banner, co-founder of Wales Interactive, added, “We’re thrilled to be partnering with Ant Workshop, a studio whose creative vision and dedication to storytelling shine through in Into the Restless Ruins. It’s exciting to highlight the creativity and rich folklore from both Wales and Scotland, bringing a fresh perspective to the global gaming community.”

About Into the Restless Ruins

A roguelike deckbuilder where you create the dungeon you fight through. Each night, use a deck of cards to expand a labyrinth of ruins, auto-battle through your design, and harvest Glimour to earn The Maiden’s blessing —all inspired by Scottish folklore, myths and legends.

Key Features:

Dynamic Deck and Dungeon Building: Use cards to create and expand the dungeon, placing rooms, corridors, and strategic elements to shape your journey.
Strategic Room Synergies: Position rooms like campfires, portals, and armouries to unlock powerful effects and adapt to every challenge.
Endless Replayability: Each run offers a unique layout, changing strategies, and new challenges, with unlockable modifiers and expanding card pools.
Rooted in Scottish Folklore: Encounter witches, faeries, and ancient myths as you uncover the dark story of the Maiden and the Harvests.

Can you harvest enough Glimour and face The Warden to earn the Maiden’s elusive promise—or will you become another soul lost to the ruins?

Into the Restless Ruins launches on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch in Spring 2025.
