Paris, August 21 2024 – ARTE and the Swing Swing Submarine studio are proud to announce their new 3D adventure and puzzle video game Looking for Fael, which will be available on PC and Mac via Steam in 2025.

This new creation from the Swing Swing Submarine studio, published by ARTE, promises players a nostalgic, fantastic and surrealistic experience. Inspired by puzzle games such as MystThe Witness and Fez, and taking influences from 90s fantasy cinema, Looking for Fael offers a unique universe with its own rules.

The player will have to find Fael, a friend who has left him a disturbing phone message explaining that he has lost his way in his own flat. The player quickly ventures into a surreal maze of flats. The only way to navigate through this labyrinth is to understand its logic. That means getting lost in turn: exploring, examining, experimenting, and trying to discover the true nature of these places.

To open all the doors and corridors, and access certain rooms, players will have to work their brains out and solve numerous mysteries, using the GameLeaf, an intriguing retro portable console to help them complete the levels. Each game is a piece of the puzzle that brings players closer to the truth about Fael’s disappearance.

Experimentation is at the heart of the experience, and players will need to be very attentive and interact with the setting, as every detail is important, from photo frames to seemingly uninteresting furniture, everything can be a clue to solve a puzzle. The world of the flat is full of surprises, and players will have to think outside the box to progress. As they solve Fael’s mysterious disappearance, players will also have to question the very nature of reality.
