Pre-order Kona, just in time for an NYC snowstorm of the century
Running blindly through the snow is the new running blindly through the dark. What snowscapes lack in terror they make up for in hypothermia. Which gives us Kona. Get ready to 1) freeze, 2) solve a mystery, and 3) do it episodically. There are four episodes planned, each running one to two hours long, and, interestingly enough, can be played in any order. You don't see that too often, even in the adventure-game genre.
In Kona, you are private detective Carl Faubert. You're driving deep into the Canadian north to investigate, of all things, strange graffiti showing up in a quiet town. I'm guessing the graffiti isn't Bloods and Crips. Also, it's the 1970s. Not like your cell phone was going to work up there anyway.
Kona: Day One is looking at a Q1 2016 launch. Pre-order and you get a 30% discount, beta access on January 29, a Steam key, and a DRM-free key.
Pre-Order Kôna: Day One and Receive Beta Access from January 29
January 21, 2016 - Parabole has opened pre-orders for Kôna: Day One, the first act of its eerie interactive tale set in the 1970s Canadian north. When private detective Carl Faubert arrives in a small town to investigate strange cases of vandalism, he finds the area is unusually quiet―except for a devastating blizzard. Where is his client? What could possibly have happened?
Players who pre-order Kôna: Day One will receive a 30% discount as well as access to the Beta beginning January 29. In the Beta, players will begin investigating the town’s secrets, explore a portion of the snowy environment using Carl’s pickup truck, and even encounter hostile wildlife.
Pre-order Kôna: Day One at konagame.com/preorder.
When the game is released, players who placed their pre-orders will receive both a DRM-free copy and a Steam key for use on Windows, Mac, or Linux.
All four Kôna acts will be purchasable individually and playable in any order. For more information, go to Parabole’s latest post on the Kôna blog.
