Developers of Beholder 3 and Through the Darkest of Times are once again tackling a difficult subject. German studio Paintbucket Games has informed of its new game.

Recall that this German studio has so far created the games Beholder 3 and Through the Darkest of Times. In Beholder 3 we dealt with the surveillance of the residents of an apartment building in cooperation with the totalitarian government. The story was inspired by the works of George Orwell, the creator of, among other things, 1984 and Animal Farm. In Through the Darkest of Times on the other hand, we acted as the leader of the German Resistance during the Third Reich period, i.e. from 1933 to 1945.
Paintbucket Games was founded by former employees of Yager Development. This developer became famous for the controversial Spec Ops: The Line, which was admittedly somewhat mediocre in terms of gameplay, but made up for it with an original, mature approach to depicting war as hell.
