DALLAS – 9th June 2022 – Clanfolk — the colony life sim from the developers of Space Pirates and Zombies, MinMax Games — is being published by Hooded Horse. The game is set in the Scottish highlands during medieval times, and it allows players to grow their own town and survive in the wilderness while managing a multi-generational family through the ages.
Clanfolk features an intricate simulation system which tracks every character in the world from birth to death, creating natural connections between family members, neighboring clans, and outsiders. As players guide their clanfolk to clear the land and fight the elements to build their homestead, a complex hierarchy of needs governs how the people live their life as the world itself changes based on seasons and events ranging from snowfall to devastating fires.
Family management is at the core of Clanfolk, as the denizens can build, hunt, fish, gather, and craft as well as raise livestock, meet neighbors, hire workers, trade, and run businesses such as inns or farms. As the people grow and develop, they can create relationships with one another, marry, and have children before dying, passing on their legacy to the new members of the clan.
Clanfolk will be released on July 14, and can be wishlisted on Steam right now. The press kit for the game, including a downloadable version of the trailer, can be found here. For press inquiries, please contact press@hoodedhorse.com.
