Point-and-click adventure game Heir of the Dog confirmed for Switch

After achieving success on Kickstarter, Tall Story Games will be bringing Heir of the Dog to Switch.

The game reached its £15,000 goal in just two hours. There’s essentially a month to go before the campaign ends, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see it more than double the original target.

Heir of the Dog, which comes from the same developer of Lucy Dreaming, is a point-and-click adventure game. Players will explore the dark streets of Victorian London in a brand new Jekyll & Hyde-inspired comedy experience.

Here’s a bit of additional information:

After a mysterious explosion over Victorian London, Cummerbund Bandersnatch (a likeable, if dim-witted twit) visits his uncle’s laboratory and discovers an experimental new formula guaranteeing a “good time” for whoever drinks it. Seduced by the promises in his uncle’s journal, Cummerbund decides that it is probably safe to drink and discovers his life will never be the same again.

What may seem like a curse at first, leads Bandersnatch on a thrilling, love-torn adventure through the back alleys of Old London Town as he uncovers a sinister plot involving a secret society, the royal family, copious amounts of dog hair and his uncle at the very center.

Check out a trailer for the game below.
