Achimostawinan Games has announced that its indigenous detective game, Hill Agency: Puritydecay has been delayed. The game’s release date is pushed to an unannounced date, while the original launch date was set for this month on 31 August, 2022.
The developer has revealed that they need more time to polish the game as it requires a lot of attention to detail, making sure everything fits in the right place.
The dev team has already been working hard and aiming to deliver a game of the highest quality, infused with the richness of Ontario’s indigenous communities, and this needs this additional time to make the game look even better for players.
With the additional time, the game will be polished further, making sure that it lives up to the community’s expectations. An exact release date has not been shared at this time, but the dev has stated that a revised release date will be announced in the future.
Hill Agency: Puritydecay is a narrative drive, exploration-heavy, detective game. When you are out on a case, the game will help you in no way, not even telling you if you are on the right path, nor will it solve any mystery for you. Your sharpened senses and instincts are what will guide you. Exploring surroundings, looking for clues, interviewing witnesses, and devising potential suspects for analysis is what will make your case.
The futuristic timeline of Hill Agency has reshaped society into two distinct groups. There is the working class who make the living on The Ground, while the privileged Elites look down from the towering balconies of The Risen City above.
The people living in The Risen City have access to technology, enjoying a life full of untethered freedom, or so do they believe.
Your story begins on The Ground, in the neon-lit city of Akâmaskiy. You play as Meygeen Hill, a tracker by family trade, but a detective by choice. Follow Meygeen as she unravels mysterious and unearths the secret threads that link The Risen City and Akâmaskiy.
Key Features:
- A unique take on Indigenous futurism
- Deeply involved narrative
- Unguided approach to detective work
- Memorable cybernoir aesthetic with a soundtrack to match
