In case you missed the news yesterday, the time has finally come: Among the Innocent: A Stricken Tale has launched on Steam, and is available to purchase here.
The game is available for $9.99 or R109.00 (or equivalent local pricing), and has launched with a 10% discount. Among the Innocent launches on Steam with a full suite of achievements, trading cards, badges, and emoticons!
Among the Innocent is also available 100% DRM-free on the Humble Store for $9.99 (currently discounted by 10% to match the Steam launch special). The Humble version includes all the current features and fixes available in the Steam version.
Due to some technical issues, we’ve had to hold back the Mac version ofAmong the Innocent for the time being. It’s at the top of our list of priorities right now, so please bear with us while we work out a few final kinks in the Mac build. We’ll send out a notification to let everyone know the Mac version is live.
If you have been sent a review code and intend on reviewing Among the Innocent, please be sure to drop us a link to the review when it’s live. If you haven’t received a code and would like to review Among the Innocent, reply to this mail and we’ll take care of it!
About Among the Innocent
Among the Innocent is a first-person thriller adventure game that takes place on an abandoned farm in the eastern Free State, South Africa. Players take on the role of struggling writer Peter York who finds himself trapped in the area. In your bid for freedom, you’ll need to keep your wits together as you explore the bleak landscape and uncover (and maybe even solve) the many mysteries that lie in dark corners.
Among the Innocent is the first of five games, together The Stricken Tales, which will form an expansive narrative across multiple decades, characters, and stories both individual and connected. Each game is inspired by a stage in the Kübler-Ross model for dealing with grief and loss, and will challenge players in unique ways while retaining a core of classic adventure gaming and dark aesthetics.
About Zero Degrees Games
An Independent game development studio, Zero Degrees Games was founded in mid-2015 in Johannesburg, South Africa, by Geoff Burrows, former editor ofNAG Magazine. Among the Innocent is our first commercial release. While Geoff operates as the sole full-time developer, artist, writer, and designer on Among the Innocent, several friends and family members rallied to assist with development and production tasks, including the production of an original musical score for the game.
