Hinterland Announced
and strategic base-building gameplay planned for digital release this summer
(The Hinterland, the hinterland, we're gonna sail to the hinterland!). The
Hinterland Website is
online, offering info, art, a developer diary, and forums, and here's the
announcement: July 11, 2008 – Tilted Mill Entertainment -- independent
developers of strategy, simulation and role-playing games – today announced
Hinterland, a new PC project for release later this summer. In Hinterland, you
build up and lead a small village, populated by simple townsfolk struggling to
survive and prosper in the wild back country of a medieval fantasy world.
Leading small parties of adventurers drawn from the ranks of the townspeople
themselves, you undertake quests outside the village, seeking to conquer various
foes, and collect treasure, magic items and knowledge which will, in turn, fuel
your village. As your village becomes stronger, you’ll forge your own weapons,
manufacture magic items and potions, and tame the wild land. Loot, Level and
Build in the Hinterland!
“Hinterland is about ordinary people struggling to overcome their hostile and
mysterious environment and building a better life for themselves in a world of
fantasy and folklore” said Chris Beatrice, founder and president of Tilted Mill
Entertainment. “There are no mighty armies clashing here, just small parties of
three or four adventurers, with you at their head, where acquiring your first
real sword is a big deal! In Hinterland you’ll experience tactical party-based
combat and role-playing, where every split-second decision matters, as well as
the strategic planning, building and ‘life simulation’ gameplay our team is
known for. Smaller games like Hinterland allow us to focus more on innovation,
risk taking and quality of game-play – it’s fast-paced and highly replayable
without sacrificing the complex and interesting mechanics of classic RPG and
strategy games.”
Hinterland will be available later this summer for under twenty dollars, through
digital download. For more information, please visit
