With the release of the Montello map for Isonzo, we wanted to dive deeper into the history of the region, especially when it comes to WW1. What better way to do so than to work together with local organizations to create a digital tour? Once you really start to dig deep into local history, there's so much to explore: from early civilization, etiquette and an F5 tornado to the lasting impact WW1 had on the region. It became an extensive tour with seven blog posts detailing the history of various points along the Austro-Hungarian push for the train station of Nervesa della Battaglia, the village on the Montello map. We just released a recap of the tour where you can find summaries of the stops with links to the full blog posts. You can find it here: https://lnkd.in/e_T-rcvA

Players can team up with friends or tackle the room solo. Whether you’re a fan of Escape Simulator, The Talos Principle, or just love a good escape room challenge, this one’s for you! We’re handling all things PR for this project, and we couldn't be more grateful for the opportunity to work with Pine Studio for over three years now.

Here’s a quick look at what we’ve been up to: 🎮 Games We Worked On: Nubs!: We’ve teamed up with Rangatang and Glowfish Interactive to announce Nubs! and had the honour of making the announcement trailer. We even got our hands on early builds, and trust us – it’s super fun! We’re excited to keep working on the marketing campaign for this one. Ari Buktu and the Anytime Elevator: We love supporting first-time devs, and this magical game – designed by a former Disney ride creator – is no exception. We announced Ari Buktu with Adventure Works and will be with them all the way to release. Don’t miss the demo during Steam Next Fest next week! shapez 2: Working on the release of shapez 2 with tobspr Games has been a wild ride (or should we say, conveyor belt?!).

How cool is that? 🎉 Isonzo Montello Expansion: Isonzo Montello Expansion: We’re always thrilled to work with the WW1 Game Series crew (BlackMill Games). This time, we helped launch the Montello expansion – a free update with a new map and weapons. A great way to give back to their loyal community and another update is already on its way! Golden Lap: Funselektor came to us with Golden Lap, and we loved helping them with the release. Launched in late September, the game has been warmly embraced by the racing community. Different from their previous titles, but a hit nonetheless! Chicken Police: Into the HIVE!: The chickens are back! We handled PR for the release date reveal of Chicken Police: Into the HIVE! by The Wild Gentlemen, launching on November 7th. We can’t wait for everyone to dive in. And some top secret projects 🕵♂️ : We’ve been hard at work on a few exciting games that we sadly can’t talk about just yet… but trust us, it’s going to be worth the wait. More info coming soon – stay tuned! 👀 🎉 What Else Happened? Dutch Game Day & Dutch Game Awards: We had some great chats at Dutch Game Day, and a massive congrats to our former client Jungle the Bungle for winning an award! 🎉 So well deserved!
