Neverway Preview – A Life-Sim Horror RPG!

Depression has a stranglehold on Neverway’s protagonist Fiona. 

As it turns out, Fiona just hasn’t had the energy to make it to work, leading to her ultimate termination. Adding insult to injury, others simply feel things aren’t working between them – with the return of one’s hoodie serving as the ultimate Dear John letter.

Swiftly losing both her job and her connections, Fiona sets out to rebuild her life away from her current landscape – somewhere on an island far, far away.

And this is where Neverway truly begins.

On the subway ride way back from the office (she had to prevent her old employer from binning her favorite coffee mug), stranger small talk led to something, well, strange.

We’re not talking an awkward conversation – that’s a given. Rather, we’re talking an unsettling world filled with nightmarish cults.

Snapping back to reality Eminem-style, Fiona plans a life far away on that aforementioned island – even if she doesn’t have a job or much of anything else lined up there.

This Neverway prologue provides just a first glimpse at Fiona’s new life, but this surreal sim taps into both horror and life sim elements.

When it comes to the “life” part of this “life sim,” Neverway lets one check Fiona’s LunaOS-powered computer, manage one’s inventory, and ultimately plan out one’s day. No need to fear though – one’s computer also features a playable Chess-like title for those who like to game while they game.

However, there’s also something unsettling afoot in Neverway. Fiona can “dissociate” in a third-person scenario and there’s combat elements complete with pipe weaponry. 

Neverway also sets the mood with surreal music by Disasterpeace, along with stellar pixel art by Pedro Medeiros that provides immersion while still leaving some unease. 

Mixing life sim with horror elements, the island escape of Neverway awaits those looking for new beginnings.

Set to release this October for the PC, one can wishlist Neverway via its official Steam page and check out its prologue demo.
