We want to thank @playhilltop.bsky.social for being apart of our Newsletter launch! We had a lovely interview with them about their BIG ANNOUNCEMENT. Curse of Resthaven Blends Town Management, Deckbuilding, and Time Loop Horror www.agamingnetwork.com/curse-of-res... #MadeInCanada #Gaming

Still on a high from yesterday’s Curse of Resthaven announcement. Check out this interview from @bradshankar.bsky.social that includes the whole dev team for a deeper dive!
Had a great chat with Toronto's @playhilltop.bsky.social about their just-revealed game, Curse of Resthaven! 🇨🇦 We talked about the marked departure from Lil' Guardsman's LucasArts-style whimsy to gothic horror, deeper mechanics with roguelite & deck-building elements, the striking art style & more.
