Armor Games and Tasmanian developer Webbysoft have announced that its treasure hunting game Bilkins’ Folly will be released on October 2 on PS5, PS4, Nintendo Switch and PC.
Bilkins’ Folly sees players assume the role of Percy Bilkins and his dog Drayton, as they search for Percy’s missing mother and grandfather, who mysteriously vanished without a trace. Together, they will recruit a crew and explore the world, digging up treasures and uncovering mysteries and family secrets. It’s all backed by a colourful pixel art style.
Just like in real life, Percy’s bond with Drayton is very important. In Bilkins’ Folly, Drayton plays a key role in helping Percy solve puzzles and find treasure, and as your bond grows, Drayton’s skills will too. The unique gameplay hook is that Percy will need to utilise his maps if he is to uncover the truth.
Bilkins’ Folly was one of our 12 Aussie-Made Games To Have On Your Radar In 2023.
