Mixtvision Games announced today that they would be publishing A Juggler’s Tale on Nintendo Switch in 2021. The side-scrolling adventure game by indie studio Kaleidoscube sees players assume the role of string-puppet Abby who longs for freedom. Here’s an official overview of the game, followed by the debut trailer:

“Ladies and Gentlemen! Come in, come in! In the mood for a story, are we?”
Abby is an artiste held captive at a circus: She spends her days entertaining the audience and her nights in a cage, longing for freedom. One day, she escapes the circus and gets to explore a mystical world.
Alas, freedom comes at a cost and Abby soon finds herself dragged into the dangers this world has to offer: In a war-torn, medieval fairytale, surrounded by ravaged, starving citizens and hunted by the relentless cut-throat Tonda, Abby has to cross raging rivers, make it through bandit camps and around traps. Her adventure is always accompanied by the lyrical rhymes of puppet master Jack, who is telling her story while holding the strings of his puppets firmly in his ever-helpful hands.
Who can Abby trust? Can she find a way to truly break free? Despite dangling from her threads, will Abby learn that she can still influence her destiny?
