Press release:
Montpellier, France, September 7th, 2022.
Indie developer Artefacts Studio in partnership with Dear Villagers have revealed the third and final expansion of their hit RPG “The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet of Chaos” with B”ack to the Futon”, coming to PC on October 3rd and Xbox consoles, PlayStation platforms, and Switch on October 13th for $14.99/ €14,99/ £11.39.

Back to the Futon holds four brand new chapters, filled with shenanigans and epic hijinks, and brings about the conclusion of their adventures in the wackiest of all dungeons.

In Back to the Futon, the adventurers are sent on a quest through time and space to solve once and for all the temporal anomaly that has enveloped the Dungeon of Naheulbeuk. During these time-traveling shenanigans, our heroes will face off against multiple challenges and enemies, including the zealous cultists of Dlul, the drowsy God of Sleep, as they search for the statuette of Gladeulfeurha.
Back to the Futon is an epic undertaking that’s roughly half as long as the base game (around 20 hours). The culmination of everything introduced in The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk and its previous expansions (The Ruins of Limis and Splat Jaypak’s Arenas), Back to the Futon will allow players to reach level 16, offering them several new passive and active skills along with new gear.

“Back to the Futon is our love letter to everything that made The Amulet of Chaos great,” said Bruno Chabanel, CEO of Artefacts Studio.

“As the title implies, Back to the Futon’s time-traveling concept gives us carte blanche to revisit The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk from an all new perspective, seeing it in its early days while it was still under construction. This will hopefully rekindle players’ memories of the base game and its previous expansions, while adding all new comedic twists and lore to discover.”

“The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet of Chaos has been one of our most cherished titles, and Back to the Futon is a stirring tribute to everything that made it such a success,” said Guillaume Jamet, Head of Publishing at Dear Villagers.

“We wanted this saga to go out with a bang, and we feel like Artefacts Studio has more than delivered!”

The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet of Chaos’ is a turn-based tactical RPG chock-full of charm, humour and chaos! Leading a ragtag company of unlikely heroes, players will embark on an epic adventure combining the fun, creativity and chaos of an epic fantasy tabletop campaign with the challenge of the very best tactical RPG games to deliver an adventure unlike anything you’ve played before.

New features:

Play through 4 brand new story chapters (half as much as the original game!)
Discover new legendary items and skills!
Help your characters become stronger, up to lv16
Perfect your tactics with new gameplay mechanics
Lots and lots of chickens!
