Press release:
Montreal, Canada, August 30th, 2023.
Hey Buddies! Indie developer WildArts, in partnership with Dear Villagers, are happy to announce their upcoming adventure RPG “Born of Bread” will need a bit more time in the oven, but don’t despair as it will be served this Fall on PC, Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series platforms.

To get an all new look at the game before its launch, check out this all new gameplay footage of Loaf’s adventure!:

Born of Bread is a home-cooked turn-based role-playing adventure that throws back to classic cartoony RPGs full of fun characters and charming stories for children and adults alike. Beings from another age are causing havoc across the land and their mischief comes as a great threat for everyone. The unlikeliest hero, Loaf, a golem born of bread who possesses a never-ending childlike wonder, will find himself and his newfound friends in the middle of a drama that’s thousands of years in the making.

Explore a wonderful world ripe with mysteries, ranging from the enigmatic ruins of the Forest of Roots to the freezing landscapes of Frosty Flats. With the help of your buddies, face off against menacing baddies and engage in fun, quirky turn-based /real-time hybrid combat.
“We know Born of Bread is taking a little longer to bake than we expected, but it’ll be worth the wait,” said WildArts Lead Designer and Programmer Nicolas Lamarche. “The best pastries take time, and we think we wanted to create the perfect blend of RPG ingredients. We’re confident that the final dish will be delicious indeed when Born of Bread launches this Fall”.

The full recipe to bake Born of Bread requires the following ingredients:

One flour golem who possesses a never-ending childlike wonder and a set of odd abilities

A wonderful world ripe with mysteries

An eclectic cast of fleshed-out characters

A wacky storyline

A pinch of light puzzles

Turn-based battles with a dash of real-time minigames

Bright, colorful 2.5D graphics

Side-missions (add to taste)

A captive audience granting you bonuses in battle

To start with, you’ll want your flour golem, Loaf. Put him in a mystical land where he can mingle with his friends and local folk. Although he may not look like much, Loaf might be the hero this land kneads!

Stir in a story of beings from another age causing havoc across the land. And with their mischief comes a great threat to everyone!

Mold an eclectic cast of endearing characters, 2.5D illustrated setting, environmental puzzles, and unique turn-based /real-time hybrid battles. Be sure you know what your enemy is weak or resistant against, as it will take brains and reflexes to thwart Born of Bread’s throngs of foes.

Piece of cake! Now leave in the oven until this Fall, and the result should look like this:
