Point and click adventure game The Dark Prophecy will leave Steam Early Access later this month, on February 28, 2022. A press release published earlier today revealed the details of the game’s departure from Early Access.
The Dark Prophecy is an indie game that draws inspiration from the point-and-click classics of the 90s. The game was developed by Start Warp and published by Meridian4. The Dark Prophecy has been in Early Access on Steam since June of last year. According to the game’s Steam store page, players take on the role of Jacob, a young boy who is tasked with rescuing his medieval village from the titular dark prophecy.
The Dark Prophecy makes use of traditional point-and-click adventure game commands, specifically, “look,” “talk,” and “use.” These commands allow players to engage with their environment by examining objects and conversing with NPCs. This mechanic and the game’s pixel graphics are an obvious homage to the point-and-click adventure games of the 90s.
In today’s press release, Start Warp expressed their enthusiasm for The Dark Prophecy:
The Dark Prophecy will leave Steam Early Access on February 28, 2022. The game will be on sale for 30% off during launch week.
