Fusing the 2.5D Metroidvania mechanics and hand-painted art-style of Hollow Knight with the rich history of Mesoamerican culture, ITORAH looks like it could be the next indie sleeper hit. Players will assume the role of the titular Itorah and traverse a magical world dubbed Nahucan as they uncover the mystery behind a devastating plague that’s slowly encroaching upon the lands.
If you want to check out another gameplay trailer, you can do so here. Plus, we’ve also got a developer commentary that goes over some of the plot details and gameplay elements as well.
For more information, here’s an overview courtesy of an official press release we received today:
