CONSCRIPT Gets Signed Up By Team17
CONSCRIPT is due to be released in 2024.
In fear of sounding a little biased, I can’t help but be thrilled to hear that Team17 (Trepang2) will be publishing CONSCRIPT. An indie title developed by Catchweight Studio, which I’ve been creepily following for far too long, couldn’t have a better publisher, in my opinion.
A survival horror set during the Great War in 1916, you play as a lone French soldier, isolated in the trenches and searching for his missing-in-action brother – fighting off enemy invaders. And they aren’t just other soldiers…
CONSCRIPT has been in development by the solo developer for the past six years and has featured a handful of playable demos that have been great. It’s a title that’s been on my wishlist for some time now, and I encourage you to do the same. Here are some of the features:
- Experience classic and methodical survival horror gameplay in a unique historical setting: the Battle of Verdun.
- Highly re-playable with various difficulty settings, multiple endings, unlockable costumes, and bonus weapons.
- Fend off a variety of enemy soldiers and combatants with a variety of WW1 melee weapons and firearms.
- Survive in an intense, harrowing atmosphere boosted by a unique pixel art aesthetic and oppressive sound design.
- Navigate intricate level design that promotes item management and route planning, whilst solving complex environmental puzzles.
- Distinct WW1 themed areas that intertwine and overlap.
CONSCRIPT is due to be released in 2024. Be sure to check out the Steam store page for further details.
