Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream’s Gamescom Debut Was Great Fun!

Hi all, as promised, we are back with some great news that we’d like to share with you. This year we attended the Gamescom event in Cologne to let the press get a closer look at the game so that they could share their first impressions with their readers. Anders Hejdenberg, the Creative Director of the game, walked them through the world of Eriksholm and revealed a bit more about the story, and also talked about the process and thinking that went into the game’s design. Here’s a collection of some of the articles that came out after the event, with their impressions: [b]DashFight (US):[/b] [i]“It looked simply stunning, even the elements that you may never visit and not even see if you don’t zoom your camera on them.”[/i] [url=https://dashfight.com/news/eriksholm-the-stolen-dream-reshapes-the-stealth-genre-gamescom-2024-6385]Read the full article[/url].
