Backwoods Entertain on Gamescom and RESORT

Posted on 07/23/2019 by Pop-Culture Spectrum

P-CS unfortunately can not do the expense to go to Gamescom, but luckily will be at PLAY NYC. Those who can make it to Gamescom though should be aware of the following.  RESORT is a highly anticipated game for this site.

RESORT COMES TO GAMESCOM 2019
RESORT, the new game by Backwoods Entertainment (Unforeseen Incidents), will be shown at Gamescom 2019 for the first time ever. Backwoods will present the interactive mystery at the much-loved Indie Arena Booth in Hall 10.2.

RESORT is an interactive mystery short story about repressed trauma and buried secrets. Renowned writer Laura Tanner embarks on a surreal journey and faces an odd intersection of dreams and reality.

Their previous game Unforeseen Incidents, the award-winning story of hapless handyman Harper Pendrell, was well received all over the world. The Nintendo Switch version will be available later this year and can also be tested at the Indie Arena Booth.
