Indie developers The Saturn Studio have a little something for those in the mood for some old-school adventure gaming with a dose of psychological horror with their upcoming title, Sons of Saturn. Currently scheduled for a November 2023 release on Steam, Sons of Saturn is a return to the point-and-click adventure games of old, focused on atmosphere and narrative.
Sons of Saturn is set in the abandoned underground city of Minerva, a technological metropolis where the dead still dream, their memories still clinging to life. You’ll be exploring the depths of both the underground city of Minerva and the protagonists’ psyches as you try to fine the cause of your pain and the metaphorical warts that have grown up around it.
Nearly all of the assets used in Sons of Saturn were derived from real-world photos of abandoned locations found all over the world, exuding that liminal space vibe that many horror gamers are going for these days. The images themselves have been given a 16-bit quality to them akin to DreadXP’s Hand of Doom that should remind more than a few readers of other classic PC RPGs.
Currently, the team has a demo available on Steam for you to check out.
