Size Five Games, known for their satirical humour and indie smash-hit “The Swindle” alongside indie smash-hit “Behold The Kickmen” today announce that Lair of the Clockwork God, their latest indie smash-hit, is heading to Xbox One and Nintendo Switch on September 4th, with PlayStation 4 at a later date.
With a 99.4% positive user score on Steam and ranked as ‘The 16th Best Video Game in 2020 on Metacritic*’, Lair of the Clockwork God sees Dan and Ben, two lifelong friends setting off on a journey to save the world from multiple apocalypses occurring at once. The game is ‘two games in one’ featuring classic point-and-click style puzzles with adventure based platforming. Solving point-and-click puzzles as Ben provides items which can be crafted together to create items for Dan and vice-versa, which allows for further exploration of the world.
“I am hugely excited to see Lair of the Clockwork God make its way to Switch, Xbox and PS4” said Dan Marshall, Director at Size Five. “The game’s overwhelmingly positive reception on Steam has been the fire in my belly all year, and I’m extremely excited to bring the game to other formats, and spread the joy to as many people as possible.”
The game’s being brought to console by Ant Workshop (previous ports include John Wick Hex). “After bringing indie smash-hits ‘The Swindle’ and ‘Behold the Kickmen’ to Nintendo Switch, we were very familiar with Dan’s code. But we agreed to port Clockwork God anyway,” said Tony Gowland, “It’s great to be able to help bring one of the highest rated indie games of 2020 to a wider audience.”
Lair of the Clockwork God launches on Xbox One and Nintendo Switch on September 4th, with PlayStation 4 later in 2020. A 15% discount is available when pre-ordering on Xbox One or Nintendo Switch from August 21st until September 4th.
