The island is waiting, the curse is upon us! 

We’re so pleased to announce that Hilltop Studios’ gripping eldritch mystery Curse of Resthaven is now available on PC, Mac, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. (Nintendo Switch, Switch 2 and PlayStation 4 versions are coming, release date to be announced soon).

In Curse of Resthaven, you play as Ambrose, the newly-appointed governor of a struggling island colony who is searching for his missing niece, Amalia. In addition to restoring the town’s economy and earning the trust of its residents, you must also face the dark horrors that lurk in the island’s wilderness as you seek answers. 

Six days into Ambrose’s new role, ancient forces rise up and wipe out Resthaven… and the governor finds himself back on the day of his arrival, the only one to remember the island’s fate. Trapped in a time loop, you must use what they learn to uncover the secrets that have doomed Resthaven and prevent this terrible cataclysm from occurring.

Hilltop Studios is, of course, the team behind the multi-award-winning Lil’ Guardsman, and it’s incredible to think Curse of Resthaven was made by just five people – two of which were responsible for all of the stunning hand-drawn art. 

Curse of Resthaven is such a wonderfully weird mix of exploration, trading and management, investigation, and deckbuilding. It’s been one of the most exciting titles we’ve worked on so far, and we’re so glad players are finally able to get their hands on the full experience.

For Steam players, you can also buy the Curse of Resthaven: Gilded Edition (which also includes two soundtracks, an art booklet, and sheet music for the in-game bard’s ballads) and we’ve teamed up with our friends at Raw Fury and PlayStack to create unmissable bundles for mystery fans:

  • Secrets, Spirits & Suspects: Curse of Resthaven & The Séance of Blake Manor (Spooky Doorway, Raw Fury),
  • The Case of the Curse: Curse of Resthaven & The Case of the Golden Idol (Color Grey Games, PlayStack)

Thank you to everyone who has been following and supporting Curse of Resthaven since we announced it back in February, and a huge thanks to Hilltop Studios for making such an incredible game (and being such a wonderful team to work with).

The island is waiting for you. Your journey to Resthaven begins now…
