Sunside games has revealed the first details of their upcoming game Crow, an all action-adventure game for iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch. Created using Sunside’s in-house game platform Radiance, Crow promises an immersive 3D world, unique exploration, combat, and game mechanics.
“Crow raises the bar for mobile gaming. The comment we get most often from those we have shared it with is that they can’t believe they are playing this on an iPhone. Our in-house engine was developed specifically to push the bar in mobile. We are extremely excited to announce this title to the industry and to gamers.”, said Joe Riedel, Technical Director and Co-founder of Sunside.
Details on the gameplay are scarce, but from the trailer below it looks to play similar to Glu’s Glyder, where you must take to the skies as a crow, and collect trinkets. Sunside talks of the game being story driven, with their website stating “Destined by Fate, you bring with you the power to alter the course of these worlds”. It all sounds very deep, but combined with the highly atmospheric visuals in the trailer, then you can consider my interest very much piqued!
Look out for a hands-on in the coming weeks. Until then here is a trailer and some screenshots to wet your appetite:
