Inkulinati Announces Xbox Game Preview & Early Access Dates— Reveals New Trailer
Posted August 18, 2022Developer Yaza Games and Publisher Daedalic Entertainment announced today that their one-of-a-kind, ink-based strategy game Inkulinati will launch to Steam Early Access and Microsoft’s Xbox Game Preview in Winter 2022.
Mythical creatures, humanoid beasts and eccentric drawings, yes, the Middle Ages were full of fantasy, and so is Inkulinati. The freshly inked trailer showcases the game’s stylish interpretation of medieval manuscripts, alongside turn-based strategy battles in which a rabbit’s bum can be more dangerous than a dog's sword.
Assume the role of a mighty Inkulinati who wields the power of Living Ink: magic that brings illustrations to life on the page. On the game’s 2D book-battlefields, the inked creatures follow their masters’ commands, fighting against beasts controlled by rival Inkulinati. To gain an edge over their enemies, players can collect new Living Ink and tinker with their bestiary to find strategic compositions for their next duel. New servants can be unlocked throughout the game, adding peculiar abilities to the Inkulinati’s arsenal, such as human-eating snails or lodging trumpets in bottoms.

About Yaza Games (Developer Inkulinati)
Yaza Games is a small studio from Poland. Met by pure chance, we want to surprise you with our hand-crafted worlds that may contain a bit of absurd humour. One of us wants to do over-complicated strategies, while the rest never read tutorials. We’re currently working on our first game called Inkulinati - an ink-based strategy game straight from medieval manuscripts, where a rabbit’s bum can be deadlier than a dog's sword.
