Press release:
Chesterfield, UK – July 14th 2023.
The YK-based indie games publisher Funbox Media and the Germany-based indie games developer Paintbucket Games, are today very happy and proud to announce that their tactical strategy totalitarian sim “Beholder 3”, is now physically available for Playstation (PS5 and PS4) and the Nintendo Switch in the shape of a special boxed retail edition (which can be all yours at the price of £24.99GBP/€29.99EUR).

Working with developer Paintbucket Games and digital publisher Toplitz Productions, Funbox Media will be publishing and distributing the boxed retail editions across EU, ANZ, SA and ME territories.

When a high-ranking security officer saves you from prison, you end up a pawn in her schemes. Now you must eliminate anyone standing in the way of her secret plans and try to get your life back while working two jobs. No tenant, employee or superior is safe from your spying.

Welcome to The Greatest Union! A totalitarian state that controls everything and everyone through oppressive laws, total surveillance, and intimidation.

You are Frank Schwarz, a husband, and father who has lost his cushy office job at the Ministry after someone set him up. The only way to avoid jail time was to make a deal with a high-ranking security officer.

Now a government spy working undercover as a landlord, you must break into tenants’ apartments, search them for contraband and eliminate anyone your boss wants out of the picture.

At the same time, you’ll have to spy and scheme against co-workers and superiors in the Ministry to work your way back up the ladder. Different factions are secretly vying for power over the Ministry and the country – play them against each other to your advantage.

Can you get your old life back, or even something better?

Will you fight for change and truth or uphold the status quo?

Who are you willing to sacrifice to get what you want?

Features:

Work two jobs: in an apartment block and in the Ministry.

Different political factions are fighting for power. Pick your side wisely.

Complete quests from the Ministry: promote the ideology of the totalitarian state, manipulate flags, and spread whatever propaganda you’re told to.

Install surveillance cameras and search apartments and offices.

Maintain your cover by doing everyday chores like paying bills, fixing up apartments, and keeping your tenants happy.

Beholder 3 is available now for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 and 5 consoles as a physical boxed retail edition across EU, ANZ, SA and ME territories. For more information, please visit Funbox Media’s Beholder 3 Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 game pages.
