Grow: Song of the Evertree Sprouts Onto PC and Consoles November 16, 2021

New “What is Grow” Trailer Shows First Gameplay; Sign Up to Enter the Closed Beta Today

CALABASAS, Calif. – August 30, 2021 – Grow: Song of the Evertree, the breathtaking world-crafting sandbox developed by Brisbane-based Prideful Sloth and published by 505 Games, blossoms into a world-class adventure with life management and exploration elements onto PC, PlayStation® 4, Xbox One™, and Nintendo Switch™ on November 16, 2021.

Long ago, the Evertree held the countless Worlds of Alaria on its branches, the infinite possibilities of natural beauty stretching across its boughs. Yet now those worlds have faded, and the Evertree has been reduced to a mere sapling by the mysterious Withering. One hope remains: the last remaining Everheart Alchemist, an ancient lineage granted the task and privilege of caring for the Evertree.

Springing forth from the recent cozy gaming movement, Grow offers a journey of creation, nurture, and community, all at a relaxing pace. Take a first look at what this entails in this new “What is Grow?” video debuted during Gamescom courtesy of IGN. Learn the intricacies of Alchemy and generate unique new worlds, from meadows and forests to deserts and frozen tundras, each with their own fantastical flora and fauna.

Spelunk in caves, solve puzzles, go fishing, catch bugs, and foster communities, listening to people and helping them with their everyday lives. Choose from a large catalog of structures and build towns rendered in Grow’s brilliant colors and adorable art style. Cozy up and succumb to the relaxing aesthetic and a complementary score courtesy of BAFTA award nominee and Crunchyroll Award winner Kevin Penkin (Florence, Tower of God, Star Wars: Visions).

Eager to become an Everheart Alchemist early? Sign up today for limited closed beta access at http://505.games/GrowBeta. Wishlist Grow on Steam to contribute to 505 Games’ and Prideful Sloth’s initiative to plant trees with their partners at #TeamTrees and the Arbor Day Foundation.

“We loved instilling a sense of peace in our players with Yonder, and we want to continue that feeling with Grow,” said Cheryl Vance, Game Designer at Prideful Sloth. “We wanted Alaria to be a place where the player feels welcomed. That the worlds they grow, and the towns they build, are unique and personal to them. That it becomes their own home away from home.”

Grow: Song of the Evertree launches on PC Via Steam, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch on November 16, 2021, for $24.99/€24.99/£19.99. A physical Nintendo Switch edition will be available in retail stores for $29.99/€29.99/£24.99 in February 2022.

Golf-Like adventure Cursed to Golf revealed  for PC and Nintendo Switch

Putt your skills to the test and swing your way out of Golf Purgatory in 2022

Golfenburg, Sweden – August 30th, 2021 – Thunderful Publishing & independent developer Chuhai Labs are excited to announce Cursed to Golf, a roguelike golf adventure that tasks the player with ridding themselves of an ancient curse and making it out of Golf Purgatory to become a Golfing Legend. With its beau-tee-ful pixel art, hole-some story and innovative gameplay, Cursed to Golf is a real hole-in-one. Launching in 2022 for PC and Nintendo Switch, check out the brand new reveal trailer for Cursed to Golf:

You play as The Cursed Golfer, trapped in Golf Purgatory after a lightning strike stops you in your tracks just as you are going to take the winning putt in an acclaimed golf tournament! Unfortunately there are no mulligans in life, so to lift the curse and ascend back to the land of the living, you’ll need to play through the 18 dungeon-like holes Golf Purgatory, a feat only possible for a true Golfing Legend. Divided into 4 distinct biomes, each area of the course is governed by a ghostly Legendary Caddie, who will aid you on your quest for redemption and revival. Are you up to par with the mythical challenges of Golf Purgatory…? Will you ever be able to reclaim your corporeal form…? Will you be crowned a Golfing Legend…? Or will you forever be… Cursed to Golf!?

Cursed to Golf offers a fresh take on the golfing and roguelike subgenres. Played like a golfinated turn-based 2D side scrolling puzzle platformer, attempt to survive each hole by reaching the flag within the PAR Count; a designated amount of swings you have to reach the end. If the PAR Count reaches zero you’ll get sucked through a purgatorial vortex back to the beginning of the course. While classic golf obstacles like the water hazards and bunkers will make an appearance, you’ll also come across high powered fans, spikes, vines, TNT boxes, teleporters and a whole load more variables that can be a help or a hindrance on your way to the hole. It’s all par for the course in this twisted take on the classic game!

With all those devious traps and pitfalls you’ll definitely need a helping hand. Use Birdie-Eye to catch a view of the Hole and see what trials lie ahead. PAR Count running low? Luckily,  gold and silver Shot Idols are peppered throughout the holes, smashing through them with a cinematic flourish will replenish your shots. Every pro player also has an ace up their sleeve, and in this game you have a whole deck! Ace Cards will turn the odds back in your favour, offering you otherworldly powers to manipulate the game in incredible ways. Rewind time with a Mulligan, shoot a triple ball Scattershot, slow down time and redirect the ball with a U-Turn or control the ball in mid-air at high speed with a Rocketball. With over 20 Ace Cards in your arsenal, look forward to some un-fore-gettable gameplay moments. 

Cursed to Golf offers players a new experience every time they step out onto the course. Offering the surprise of a roguelike challenge and the precision of traditional handmade level design. Chuhai Labs have created over 80+ holes of unique and varying challenge, that are randomly-ordered to make up a new challenging course every time you jump in.

“It’s incredible to finally reveal Cursed to Golf to the world. I got so much feedback and support from the original concept on itch.io that I wanted to go all out and create the ultimate version of that initial idea,” said Liam Edwards, Game Director at Chuhai Labs. “I can’t wait to see how people react to the game when it’s in their hands. I can confidently say that it’s the best roguelike golf adventure set in Golf Purgatory that you’ll play in 2022 — by par!”

Wishlist Cursed to Golf on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1726120/Cursed_to_Golf/

Cursed to Golf will launch in 2022 for Nintendo Switch and PC (Steam).

Feel the Sting in Free Fire’s New Quantic Unknown Elite Pass

Malevolent vibes await Survivors in the upcoming EP

Singapore, 30 August, 2021 – Free Fire, the world’s most downloaded mobile game in 2019 and 2020, will take Survivors to a dark and dangerous place in its latest Elite Pass (EP), Quantic Unknown, where they will face the venom of the scorpion.

Quantic Unknown takes inspiration from streetwear. Every element, from the texture and cut to the hairstyles, such as dreadlocks and highlight dyes, all contribute to accentuate the visual perception of uniqueness and trendiness. Survivors can get their pincers on Venomous Skorpios (Male) and Valiant Skorpina (Female) Bundles, and can earn other rewards including the Malevolent Sting backpack and grenade skins, Razor Blade and Razor Fangs skyboard skins, and Quantic Unknown jeep and weapon skins. The EP also features two in-game avatars and banners. Survivors who pre-order the EP will also receive the Malevolent Sting in-game box skin.

The cool, edgy scorpion concept has not been explored previously in Free Fire content, and the key color combination of black and purple evokes a mysterious and dangerous scorpion vibe. Other elements, such as scorpion details on the waist belts, mechanical scorpion tails on the backpacks, and the use of diamond shapes help carry the theme throughout the EP. Triangles and metallic textures convey sharpness as well as the feeling of danger and aggressiveness.

The Chimeras are hybrid warriors, forged from the union of two souls. They are the only beings who can oppose the Wraiths, ravenous creatures borne of Chaos itself. Briar and Lute are two sisters — both voiced by Stefanie Joosten (Metal Gear Solid V) — who were turned into a Chimera: Briar gained superhuman abilities, but Lute was sacrificed to become her Shade, a spirit with mystical powers. When the city of Ilden falls to the invasion of the Wraiths, the two sisters are sent on a mission to purge it.

About Dice Legacy

Dice Legacy is a roguelike survival city-builder. Players use dice to establish a medieval town in a fascinating ringworld and grow their society.

Every action is based on the roll of a six-sided dice, from planting and harvesting to establishing supply chains or combat. In Dice Legacy, the dice represent the work force. As a ruler, builder, conqueror or trader the players will need to provide their dice with nourishment and care or witness their subjects eventually fade away. Balancing exploration, resource gathering, building and conquering is key whilst the ever present threat of mysterious factions looms in the fog of war.

Players will soon realise luck is nothing without a good strategy behind it – and dice versa.
