A House of Many Doors is a 2D exploration RPG coming to PC in July next year, developed by one-man indie studio Pixel Trickery with glorious art by Catherine Unger. This will be a game with narrative depth, compelling characters, and branching, nonlinear storylines.
KEY FEATURES:
- A rag-tag crew of dozens of characters with quests to complete and secrets to uncover
- A vast setting, crammed with bizarre civilizations, cities, and ruins
- Stories and lore galore
- A real-time-with-pause combat system
- Procedurally-generated poetry
In A House of Many Doors you are a poet, journalist and spy, exploring the House – a vast parasite dimension that steals from other worlds. You explore the House in a clanking train with mechanical legs, discovering bizarre civilizations and assembling a dysfunctional crew.
I want you to feel like a particular type of 19th-century polymath - a Richard Francis Burton or a Gertrude Bell. An absurd figure with absurd talents who propels themselves confidently into absurdly terrifying situations.
The poems you write are based on the experiences you have in-game. The poems are procedurally-generated, and over time you will build up a proud canon of stirring titles: "The Troglodyte Vomiting of the Mirrors," "An Elegy on the Reluctant Hell of Grief," "Ode to the Strangling Toad." Your poems and travelogues are your route to fame and fortune!
