Developer Ivy Road and publisher Annapurna Interactive were part of the festivities at Summer Game Fest to unveil new narrative adventure title Wanderstop. The game was announced with a new trailer, which you can check out below, and is slated for release on PC and PS5 this year.
Wanderstop has been described by its developers as a cozy game, where players will be able to relax as they plant flowers and harvest them in order to make and sell fancy varieties of tea. The game puts players in the shoes of Alta—a former warrior—who runs a tea shop in a magical forest.
Among other things, the game will also allow players to chill while sitting on a bench and having some tea, or decorate her shop in the style of her choosing.
There is a twist in the game’s story, however, as despite the general relaxation Alta experiences, she doesn’t seem to want to be here, and seems to yearn to go back to her days as a fighter. The game’s development features quite a bit of talent that has previously worked on acclaimed titles, including The Stanley Parable‘s Davey Wreden, Gone Home‘s Karla Zimonja, and Daniel Rosenfeld, who is known for his work on Minecraft‘s soundtrack as “C418”.
