BOSTON, MA – SEPTEMBER 17, 2024 – Ape Law, the innovative studio behind the cult classic Albino Lullaby, announces the October 8, 2024, release of Alice's Lullaby. This latest entry in the psychological horror genre invites players to traverse the eerie and treacherous world of Styx, where time is both ally and adversary. Prepare to tumble through time and unravel the horrific mysteries of the enigmatic Grandchild Cult.
A Twisted Journey Through Time and Trauma
Alice's Lullaby plunges players into a deeply haunting narrative that challenges their grip on reality. The game centers on a perilous mission to rescue young Alice from the clutches of the Grandchild Cult, a group driven by their fanatical zeal to construct a device that can undo their past mistakes and unleash terror upon the world above. As the only "walkling" with the vision to see through their machinations, players must navigate a dark world, journeying between past and future to expose the mysteries hidden within Styx and thwart the cult’s grand ambitions.
“Alice's Lullaby uses horror conventions to explore themes of trauma and perception, inviting players to look closer and find the unsettling answers hidden beneath the surface,” said Justin Pappas, Creative Director and Founder of Ape Law.
Key Features of Alice's Lullaby:
Time-Tumbling Gameplay: Explore multiple narratives set across different time periods, uncovering how they intertwine between past and present to reveal the full story.
Striking Visual Contrast: Experience a world that is deceptively vibrant on the surface, yet dark and sinister underneath, capturing the duality of the human psyche.
Narrative Depth: Players can unravel the metaphysical mystery of Styx and the Grandchild Cult, as they are challenged to discover why they are perceived as the monster.
Psychological Horror Elements: Encounter a game that reflects the distorted reality of trauma, where what is real for you isn’t necessarily the case for everyone around you.
Rich World-Building: Explore the detailed, multi-layered world of Styx, where every discovery adds depth to the narrative.
