Once Upon A Puppet launches next month!
In Once Upon A Puppet, players follow stagehand Nieve and puppet star Drev as they unravel the secrets of a forgotten kingdom. The game offers a unique world with its own secrets and puzzles to solve. Players will have to fight their way back to the grand theatre above as they uncover the mysteries of the so-called Understage.
Once Upon A Puppet’s developer, Flatter Than Earth, provides a behind-the-scenes walkthrough in which a first look at the theatrical world is teased. The exclusive video shows potential players how this world is brought to life through handcrafted sets, dynamic character interactions, and rebuildable stage mechanics.
Flatter Than Earth and the game’s publisher, Daedalic Entertainment, highlight four factors they believe make Once Upon A Puppet worth checking out. Firstly, players can control both Nieve and Drev and combine their unique abilities. Secondly, the thread-based mechanic allows players to manipulate environments, interact with props, and uncover secrets using their magical thread. Next, inspired by classic stage performances, players will be able to explore a stunning world of handcrafted theatre and uniforms. Finally, you’ll discover the dark secrets that haunt the Understage in this narrative-driven adventure.
Once Upon A Puppet will be released in late April 2025 for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and Steam Deck. A demo is available now on Steam.
