This Gamescom 2024 announcement shows a cozy town, but it’s not really a cozy game (and that’s why I’m here).
This week we learned that Bloomtown: A different story will be officially released on September 24th. It is the latest title from Lazy Bear Games, GRaveyard Keeper and Punch Club and Different Sense Games.
Bloomtown: A different story is described as a “Persona-inspired JRPG” that includes turn-based combat, monster taming, and social elements, according to a press release.
Bloomtown is a quiet and cozy American suburb, but that’s just a facade – beneath the surface, a demon world is growing, children are disappearing, and it’s up to you to save the town! During the summer holidays, you, as Emily and her younger brother Chester, tame monsters from the underworld and assemble your own demon-hunting squad with unique team synergies.
Make the most of your summer vacation adventure! Explore the city’s secret areas, work out at the gym, work at the supermarket, take up gardening or make imaginative friends. The choices – and the adventure – are yours!
According to the description on the Steam store, the game is set in a pleasant 1960s American world where you fight against demonic creatures that live in the hearts of the townspeople.
Bloomtown: A different story will be released on PC as well as on PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo consoles.
