Ahead of release next month, single-player hand-drawn adventure Greak: Memories of Azur is available from today as a bite-sized playable demo for Nintendo Switch owners via the Nintendo eShop. Much like the PC demo, the console exclusive taster has players meet the titular Greak as well as their gutsy siblings as they contend with an invading force, dubbed the Urlags.
Over to publisher Team17 for the official word on what Greak: Memories of Azur is all about:
In Greak: Memories of Azur, the player joins siblings Greak, Adara, and Raydel as they flee the deadly invasion on their home, each sibling boasting unique abilities that will assist in their journey; Greak offers up agility and the ability to fit where others will not; Adara wields arcane magic to devastating effect; and Raydel has skill in battle and specialised gear that make him a formidable foe. The player will need to alternate seamlessly between the three siblings to best navigate the beautiful yet hostile world of Azur, taking on the enemy Urlags as they attempt to survive.
