'Troll & I' (ALL) Announced - Screens

Troll And I is an adventure/survival game about an unlikely friendship, featuring a compelling and progressive storyline as players will control Otto, a young boy forced to escape his destroyed village, and his companion, a mighty Troll.

In Troll and I the player takes (flip flop) control of two unlikely friends; a young boy called Otto who is agile, skilful with a spear and deft with melee weapons; and a giant, magical Troll, also in his infancy and yet to learn and harness the magical abilities of his kin.

After a disaster destroys his village, a young boy named Otto is forced to run, leaving his family and friends behind to fend for himself in a harsh, demanding landscape. But in the midst of chaos and from the desire to survive, Otto befriends a Troll. Together they embark on a journey that explores the friendship and emotional depth of human and beast as they trek across a devastated landscape that has concealed many secrets… until now!

Troll and I has sprinklings of various genres including RPG's and Action Adventures. It has a layered melee and long range weapon systems with damage and durability values to manage. It relies heavily on an inventory system with crafting and collecting supplements to create numerous weapons. The boy can use a stealth system that allows the player to plan his approach if he chooses and the Troll has various magic abilities that are honed to either protect, hide or disguise both characters. The magic is not designed to be a weapon; Trolls in our game world are generally good natured creatures, unless threatened of course.

When the game begins, the story reflects Trolls as myth and legend, not unlike the Yeti or Sasquatch. The general public have heard about the potential sightings and the glorified horror stories, but have no real evidence that Trolls exist… until now!
