Darkestville Castle out today on Nintendo Switch

Buka Entertainment and Epic LLama are proud to announce that, after a short delay, Darkestville Castle is available from today on Nintendo Switch in Europe and Australia.

Released earlier in August for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, plus for Nintendo Switch in North America, Darkestville Castle has been wowing players and critics alike. So much so that our demonic “hero” Cid, ever the show-off, has decided to brag about his latest accomplishments in a freshly unearthed accolades trailer.

First released on PC, where it scooped up the “INDIE PRIZE - Best Game Narrative” award and has received ‘Very Positive’ Steam player reviews, Darkestville Castle now arrives on all major consoles to terrorise brand new audiences.

About Darkestville Castle
A traditional hand-painted graphic adventure inspired by the genre’s greats, Darkestville Castle drops players into the pointed shoes of skeletal demon Cid who enjoys nothing more than sharpening his teeth and unleashing evil deeds onto the people of Darkestville.

But don’t take our word for it, here’s Darkestville Castle’s star menace himself:

Dear potential servant of chaos,

Being evil isn’t always easy… But boy it is so much more fun than being a good guy!

Having someone witty like you on my team could be useful during these not-so-dark times.

Everything in Darkestville was fine and dandy: I was tormenting the town people, the town people were being tormented… It was a fair deal! Who could complain? Not me, that’s for sure!

…until that moron, Dan Teapot, hired a group of professional demon hunters to banish me! I don’t even know why he has a grudge against me. Maybe I burnt his house a couple of times, but I only did it because it was hilarious!

Anyway.

Help me in this adventure to best my foes and let’s make evil reign Darkestville once more!

Also by purchasing this game you are helping a noble cause, part of your money will be used to enslave mankind… I mean… to clean the seas from pollution, create a sanctuary for the only Endangered Invisible Flamingo on this planet and other kinds of noble-sounding lies.

Sincerely Evil,
Cid

Darkestville Castle is out now on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One for $14.99 USD / 14.99 € / £11.99.
