Backwoods Entertainment, creators of the well received point & click mystery, Unforeseen Incidents, is now teasing their next project, Resort.
Although the developers are still early in the stages of development, they have revealed that that they will once again be working within the genre of mystery, this time, creating an interactive experience, “about emotions, introspection, and problem solving.”
The explorative, short story narrative will follow well-known writer, Laura Tanner, as she ventures into the small town of Luburnum Creek, in October of 1973. Here, Laura will encounter “uncanny events,” in a world where “the real and surreal merge.”
Resort, which BE says will be laser focused on story rather than puzzles, has already found funding thanks to the Film-& Medienstiftung NRW and SpielFabrique.
Here’s a first look at the game through concept art and storyboards the developers have disclosed on Twitter.
That’s all we know for now, but stick around because more information will be coming soon, as the creators have promised to include their fans on the journey of Resort’s development.

The company’s recent release, Unforeseen Incidents, can be purchased on Steam, GOG.com, & Humble for $19.99. You can read more about it, here.
