'Mayonez' Announced - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on July 25, 2018 @ 7:01 p.m. PDT

Mayonez is a dark comedy adventure with RPG elements set in the fictional industrial town of Mayonez.

You find yourself in the dilapidated industrial town of Mayonez where you ended up unexpectedly after being used to a comfortable life in the West. Being unhappy with the current situation, you seek your way to the glorious leader’s office. The waiting list is long, but some citizens are willing to hand you their ticket in exchange for help.

These residents all have unique personalities that enrich Mayonez and make it slightly more alive. Characters are almost always eager to talk about the latest village scandals and ask for free help - sending you on quests! Quests can have different outcomes depending on your choices. You can learn new skills through our small RPG system that affects your dialogue choices, making every playthrough a little bit different.

The quests will send you through a non-linear story, with multiple locations such as the city, forest and farms that are always open to explore freely.

As the focus is noticeably on Slavic culture, we’ve done a lot of research not just on modern life in Slavic countries, but also traditional customs and folklore. We find that it’s a highly underrepresented group of people that’s barely made itself known globally, so we hope to bring it a bit more attention.

In this world, reality and mythology are closely intertwined. Among regular folk lurk various well-known figures, such as Baba Yaga and Slavic gods.

"We're a couple of Slavs, making an open world adventure RPG about Slavs. It’s our second game, after Uncanny Valley, and is quite a step in the opposite direction."

Key Features:

  • Complex dialogue options and story branching
  • Hand-drawn and animated world
  • A dark and silly sense of humor
  • Open exploration of Mayonez and its surroundings
  • An array of interesting and unusual characters with unique quests
  • A new take on Slavic culture
  • Cool mini games
  • Lots of mayonnaise!

Mayonez's initial release will be for PC (Steam) in 2019, with consoles to follow sometime after.
