'The Unexpected Quest' Picked Up By PQube - Screens & Trailer

The Unexpected Quest combines adventure and exploration with management elements in a medieval fantasy setting.

Adventure game with strategy and management elements in a medieval fantasy setting - drawing inspiration from classics such as Warcraft 3 and The Settlers. Embark on quests, hunt down treasures and manage your resources as you build, battle, cast magic and brew potions to bring order to the world.

Strange creatures living in different locations await you. Some of them will help you, others need your help, and others will take a liking to your head...or, rather, your fresh brains. You will visit quiet villages, snow-capped mountaintops, impenetrable forests, and foul-smelling swamps. But one thing will remain the same - adventure awaits you everywhere!

Collect everything that isn't bolted to the floor! Dwarves don't mind work, but they won't lift a finger ion an empty stomach. You can't build a working mill out of mud and sticks, so you'll have to search for the appropriate materials. Keep food stocked and resources plentiful and your world will expand!


Interested fans can also check out a playable demo.

Build bridges over turbulent rivers, build docks in the swamps, repair buildings, and build new ones! Mills will provide food, sawmills will provide building materials, forges will improve equipment - and you can always sell the surplus at the market. Many building styles and colors await you in the game.

The citizens of the world have always had many problems to overcome and quests to embark on. Try to help everyone you can, and reap the rewards of your labours. You can also always count on what's most important: sincere words of gratitude (computer game characters don't have real feelings or minds).

You can get much further with a kind word and a sword than you can with a kind word alone. Hire experienced soldiers, upgrade their armour and weapons, fight, and conquer. Whoever said the pen is mightier than the sword has never been on the receiving end of a Claymore!

Not enough food or materials? Are your soldiers dying from their wounds? Did the workers decide to create a union? Magic items and potions will remedy the situation! Save up your gold, complete quests, and plunder chests. There are many ways to get magic items!

Key Features:

  • Send your units off to sprawling forests, buoyant bayous and snow-capped mountains as you discover all sorts of creatures - some friend, some foe!
  • Classic production buildings like sawmills and forges are essential to developing your town and resources, while quest-specific structures like bridges make for a nice variation!
  • Search the world around you for the appropriate materials and manage your food, gold and wood supplies to expand your kingdom and prepare for quests!
  • Hire experienced soldiers, upgrade their equipment and let them defend what you have built or search for magic items and other treasures!

The Unexpected Quest will release later this year for PC (Steam).
