Publisher Serenity Forge in association Singapore-based publisher Soft Source Pte Ltd and developer Dim Bulb Games, is pleased to announce the physical release of the localised Asian version of the highly acclaimed narrative adventure game, Where the Water Tastes like Wine in Hong Kong, Taiwan and South East Asia on 11th Jan 2024 on the Nintendo Switch.
Where the Water Tastes Like Wine is a Narrative-Adventure game about traveling, sharing stories, and surviving manifest destiny. Featuring gorgeous hand-drawn illustrations, Where the Water Tastes Like Wine combines 2D visuals with a 3D overworld US map.
Player’s wander across a folkloric Depression era United States at their own pace, meeting strangers with their own stories to tell. Through these interactions, players will be able to collect unique stories which can then be re-told to unlock new interactions. In this way the in-game stories themselves act as a currency to progress through the game, and it’s up to the player to pair the right story with the unique needs of each of the characters that you will encounter throughout your travels. Only through these right pairings will characters reveal their true selves, and bestow you with the most powerful stories, the true ones which reveal something about their own lives. In Where the Water Tastes Like Wine, stories organically take on a life of their own as they grow larger and transform as they're told- and re-told.
The game supports subtitles in English, Simplified Chinese, French, German and Russian.
