Already at work on Eastshade, Danny Weinbaum, Jaclyn Ciezadlo and composer Phoenix Glendinning present here a role-playing game without combat telling the story of a school of magic located in a world as fantastic as a forest. We are in Glimmerwick, an island renowned for its university of magic, where the player will be able to attend classes but also let their music-loving side and their love of nature speak for themselves thanks to the importance given to healthy activities such as music and gardening, not to mention many other extracurricular activities.
“With your trusty flute and trusty hymnbook by your side, you’ll go to class and join after-school clubs, meet new friends among classmates and townspeople, and discover the multitude of curiosities and mysteries of Glimmerwick, while enjoying a year of seasons, festivals, spells and witches’ pranks in this peaceful narrative role-playing game“, can we read.
Songs of Glimmerwick is therefore presented as a peaceful adventure leaning more on the side of life simulation than great adventure, in line with games like Spiritfarer and Mutazione whose spirit is somewhat reminiscent of this proposal. Announced for 2023 on PC and unspecified consoles, Songs of Glimmerwick will be fully dubbed in English with texts in French.
