Survive On The Go In The Molasses Flood’s Critically-Acclaimed Survival Adventure.

Press release:
London, United Kingdom – October 12th – Independent developer, The Molasses Flood, and publisher, Curve Digital, are pleased to announce that The Flame In The Flood is available now on the eShop for Nintendo Switch. Priced at £/$/€14.99, The Flame In The Flood is a bleak but beautiful rogue-lite set upon a treacherous, procedurally generated river. With the help of your trusty dog, Aesop, The Flame In The Flood tasks you to make the most of your surroundings by foraging, hunting and scavenging your way through nature and the remains of society. With an evocative, homespun art-style and lilting, original soundtrack by Chuck Ragan, survival has never been this enjoyable.

“The Flame In The Flood has always been about the journey rather than destination,” said Forrest Dowling, Lead Designer of The Flame In The Flood. “That’s partly why we’re so pleased to bring the game to the Nintendo Switch, a console that allows you to play on the go. This version of the game looks and plays great docked or in the palm of your hands.”

“We really hope that Nintendo fans enjoy The Flame In The Flood, ” said Simon Byron, Publishing Director at Curve Digital. “With the flexibility of Nintendo Switch, The Flame In The Flood has you covered whether you prefer to adventure from the comfort of home or out in the wild. Good luck out there!”

Drink in the delicate beauty of post-societal America before the perils of reality begin to bite. Wild animals, the natural elements and the great, winding river all pose unique threats in a game where survival is achieved through a mix of smarts and resourcefulness. Playing as intrepid wanderer, Scout, you must feed and clothe yourself from the land and whatever else you find along the way. Craft equipment and traps, upgrade your makeshift raft and brave the rapids, all set against the stark majesty of the game’s forgotten world.
