The Prisoning Fletcher's Quest trailer

Accompanying the launch of The Prisoning: Fletcher’s Quest is a new trailer. The game, a comedic Metroidvania adventure, just released on Nintendo Switch.

A bunch of information about it can be found in the following rundown:

After a visit to the psychologist that went horribly wrong you’re trapped in the mind of a game developer on the brink of physical and emotional burnout during the last stages of an intense project. Experience a metroidvania drenched in anxiety based on a very true story.

Help Fletcher Howie Jr. escape his mental prison and save the day!

Key Features

  • Based on a true story and definitely inspired by real events
  • Upgrades, weapons, bosses, enemies and all that jazz
  • Contains story*

(*This game is not recommended for anyone with a peanut allergy)

But hey, not down with anxiety? All of these above points can be completely skipped and you can plow your way through another tight roguelike metroidvania with killer mechanics (you can kill basically everything that moves), a banging chipmusic soundtrack built to maximize your nostalgia and more pixel art than you can stomach!

Have a look at the The Prisoning: Fletcher’s Quest launch trailer below.
