I am very happy to be able to tell you today Dwarfs is available for Xbox One and Xbox Series X | S, making it our first console version as a company. Last year on PC, our little hidden gem won a small and powerful audience of city builders and explorers who were very nice to us and praise our little (big) game.
Dwarfs is a peaceful third-person adventure and city-building adventure in which you take control of three uniquely skillful characters to help the wayward wood elves build a new home after their old one is lost. When you arrive in the new country, you will discover that there is so much to do! Resources have to be gathered, buildings have to be built and treasures have to be found! As you explore the world, you discover that there are secrets and ancient trials waiting to be unlocked and making lots of friends along the way.
Dwarfs is sometimes silly and sometimes cordial. It is the culmination of silly adventures and sincere missions of service to others and charity. Our goal has always been to create a carefree world without much fear, in which a player can simply relax and explore, but also a game with many hidden complexities and secrets. A busy, busy game that you can get lost in without too much worry or stress.
We created Dwarfs mostly as a tiny team of three with the help of our outstanding composer Neil Quillen on the soundtrack. As we were very small indies we didn’t have a lot of budget for the game so we funded everything ourselves and worked really hard for many years to create this love work. Since we’re an open world game, we probably bit off a lot more than we could initially chew, but we kept going and saw a preliminary PC release in early 2020.
Since then we are very excited to finally bring Dwarfs to com fort where we believe it really has a chance to shine!
So what can you do We spent a lot of time thinking about the pillars of our design in Dwarfs and we’ve reduced it to four core gameplay elements:
- Discover: Play as three uniquely experienced characters to search for and puzzle a peaceful and atmospheric world.
- Gather: Provide your city with resources from the surrounding land, from hidden treasures and other wonders.
- To build: Discover and unlock new structures to expand and improve your city.
- Make friends: Find friendship in the local wildlife to improve your city and character skills, and invite the wandering wood elves to join and expand your city.
I think that ends my little game. You can buy Dwarfs starting today, August 11th, and if you are not sure yet – add us to your wish list!
