Gamechuck releases Paws of Coal on Steam for PC today

Zagreb, Croatia, 1 May - Gamechuck has released the detective adventure Paws of Coal on Steam for PC on 1 May, both as a standalone game and in a bundle with its soundtrack.

 
The miners of Rabbit Burrows are falling ill, and it is hurting production. As an eminent scholar of the Animal Kingdom, Charles Quill has been summoned by the Crown to help them solve the outbreak. The miners know and respect the young scholar, but there seem to be other things at play.

 
Gather clues by talking to various animals, reading scientific books, and closely inspecting the environment and items. Form alliances with various factions to gain access to exclusive information. Use deduction to connect clues and distinguish solid evidence from misleading leads and hearsay. Submit reports and choose wisely between many open-ended conclusions to solve quests.

 
During the investigation, you will face difficult moral decisions in a class and species-divided Animal Kingdom. Your choices will matter and even forming incorrect conclusions about the raging plague will push the story forward, often in unexpected ways.

 
Paws of Coal Features:
 

  • Gather and connect clues to form a myriad of open-ended conclusions
  • Gain friends and foes among various animal factions, species and classes
  • Make difficult moral decisions that will push the story in unexpected ways
  • Hand-drawn backgrounds and frame-by-frame animated characters, flora and fauna
  • Classical score inspired by Wagnerian leitmotifs and composed by Fenton Huston

 
Paws of Coal is a short, standalone game set in the larger Trip the Ark Fantastic universe, currently in development at Gamechuck.
