Dino-centric shop management sim Amber Isle coming to Switch
Publisher Team17 and developer Ambertail Games, supported by Northern Ireland Screen, today announced a partnership to publish Amber Isle. It will be available on Switch when it’s ready.
Amber Isle is a dino-centric shop management sim that welcomes players to a friendly village filled with a mix of prehistoric animals (Paleofolk). They’ll play as a new shopkeeper as they stock their store with everything their Paleo-pals might need and look to save the island from the brink of fossilization.
Here’s some additional information:
Whittled down to its last remaining residents, Amber Isle has well and truly seen better days, and a last-ditch effort to save it sees the grumpy iguanodon Mayor Clawsworth cast a keen yet cynical eye over the new venture, hopeful that Amber Isle can return to its glory days. After designing their own Paleo-character, players will adventure out into the world of Amber Isle, spending their days maintaining their shop, befriending the locals, and improving the village enough to convince other Paleofolk to return and take up residence permanently.
Did you know: Tyrannosaurus rex is closer in time to us humans today than it was to Stegosaurus? T.rex lived 66 million years ago, but Stegosaurus lived 80mil+ years before T.rex existed!
Luckily for us, this isn’t how things work on Amber Isle- Our Paleofolk consist of prehistoric animals from a range of different geological eras, all waiting to live happily side by side on your island!
