SAND IS THE SOUL Dark Victorian Post-Punk Game Heading to Steam this November

Explore a Dark Victorian Post-punk world filled with moral ambiguity

MGP Studios and publisher, Fat Dog Games, have today announced that Sand is the Soul will release on Steam in November. Sand is the Soul is a 2D side-scrolling action RPG with a non-linear narrative that provides players with an experience of deep choice and consequences in an unforgiving gothic Victorian fantasy world. Sand is the Soul will be coming to Steam early access November 1st.

Inspired by Fighting Fantasy, Double Dragon, and Bloodborne, the entire game has been developed by a one-man studio MGP Studios. The dark stylized atmosphere of Crosshill sets the scene for this narrative-driven experience where the choices you make will decide your path and story.

Sand is the Soul has been created to provide a challenging combat experience combined with the gameplay of a 2D beat-em-up. This combination alongside the game’s RPG mechanics and exploration creates engaging gameplay experiences with an atmospheric backdrop.

Players will be placed in the role of a diplomatic messenger/courier with an opening mission of delivering a vital document to authorities of the bordering town known as Crosshill. Accomplish the mission or don’t, pave your own way with the game’s morality and sanity systems.
