European video game developer Wax Lyrical Games announced the production of their latest adventure-puzzle game, Wittard: Nemesis of Ragnarok.
Wax Lyrical Games was established by freelance developers Alan Thorn and Marlies Maalderink. Wittard: Nemesis of Ragnarok is its first game.





To mark this announcement, Wax Lyrical Games has launched the official website that features game news, information, screen shots and other media.

You can see some screenshots in our gallery HERE.:the game will be first person perspective, and non-linear, and the planned released will be 2010, hopefully both on hard copy and digital download.

Thanks Carla, the screenshot environment makes me want to investigate the areas.

Wonderful. Wax Lyrical Games -- I like that too.

Thanks, Carla .. Looks like it could be good !!!!

First let me say...WOW! It looks great and if it is indeed an adventure game on the line of games like the Myst Games, Schizm or the likes of Rhem then I am all for it and will anxiously wait for more. First Person, Solo Exploration, Non-Linear Puzzle Game? I am drooling. But I am going to error on the side of caution here and suspect this to be another Casual Game. I would like for the developers to chime in here and tell me otherwise which would be great. I also wish they would further explain "Controls Supported: Mouse, Keyboard, Wii Remote"

So what do you say Wax Lyrical, can you fill us in more?

Wow! What great news! I'm anxiously waiting feedback on controls.

Hello There. Thank you for your interest in the game. I would like to answer your questions regarding this.

Wittard will be a first person, non-linear, solo-exploration graphic adventure, NOT a casual or hidden object game. It is a blend of styles, similar to Myst Revelations and Shivers I and II. Like Myst, it does not feature an inventory, except for a few crucial items, and it features object manipulation puzzles. It also features a very similar control system. Like Shivers, it is colourful and features some brainteaser-logic style puzzles.

It features a lot of exploration and is light on reading.

Regarding the controls. The game can be controlled completely using any one of the following: mouse, keyboard or Wii remote. It can be entirely mouse driven, or entirely keyboard driven, or Wii remote driven, according to your liking.

I hope this answers your questions

Alan, thanks for stopping in and all I can say is, bring it on! Sounds great.

Ana

Thank you Alan to pop by!

Yes, Thank you Alan Thorn for answering those questions and so swiftly. This is fantastic news as this type of adventure game is rarely found lately. By the way, if you look outside your door you will find me camped out, anxiously waiting to be the first one to grab your game when it is released.

= Priceless

Music to my ears! Thanks so much for letting us know about your game.

Thanks for the heads-up!! This one will certainly be one that I will have to play!

Thanks Carla, I'll be watching for this one.

Getting ready to stock up on Spam/cheese & crackers & tea-to have ready and begin play!!! WooHoo! I just love adventure games that have a lot of exploration in them..(one reason i enjoyed Uru..lots of area to explore--reason i didn't thoroughly enjoy it was the action stuff). The screen shots show some very nice art...already give a tone of 'creepiness'....

Thanks Carla - I have been off the boil regarding adventure games for some time now but this particular game has severely provoked my interest again - bring it on!
