Shadows of the Afterland

Aruma Studios has announced Shadows of the Afterland, a new point-and-click adventure game for Switch. It will be available in 2024.

Shadows of the Afterland is said to be “a supernatural comedy adventure that takes players on an enchanting journey through the realms of the living and the afterlife.” The scene is set in 1960 Madrid and follows a soul who arrives with the memories of Carolina, a pioneer of the Madrid police force who actually hasn’t been born yet.

One of the big announcements from this month’s Nintendo Direct was F-Zero 99. Given how long the franchise has been gone for, it was nice to see it return.
