Over time the Nintendo Switch has become home to all kinds of difference games, including many titles which follow a narrative and now it will soon become home to another title with a unique story to tell.
Florence is best described as an 'Interactive Story' in which you guide the titular character through a slice of her digital life and everything that entails including a relationship which you get to see unfold as you play.
Florence is published by Annapurna Interactive, developed by Mountains and will be launching on the Nintendo Switch eShop on February 13th, 2020 for the price of £5.99.
Check below for the press release and launch trailer...
'Florence is an interactive storybook from the award-winning lead designer of Monument Valley about the heart-racing highs and heartbreaking lows of a young woman’s very first love.
Florence Yeoh feels a little… stuck. Her life is an endless routine of work, sleep, and spending too much time on social media. Then one day, she meets a cello player named Krish who changes everything about how she sees the world and herself.
Experience every beat of Florence and Krish’s relationship through a series of mini-game vignettes – from flirting to fighting, from helping each other grow… to growing apart. Drawing inspiration from ‘slice of life’ graphic novels and webcomics, Florence is an intimate and unforgettable story.'
Will you be tempted to try the tale of Florence when it launches next week on the Switch? Have you played the title already on another device? Does this have potential to do very well on Nintendo's platform due to expanding its potential audience perhaps?
