Head out on the open road with your van and an array of tools to try and find your sister. Open up new passages and ruins by upgrading your van as you progress. Each step from navigating treacherous terrain to uncovering ancient ruins will bring you closer to the truth of what happened to her.
Cigalo has gone from a green planet to a desert thanks to human activities and sur-exploitation. Caravan SandWitch shows the impact of human populations on the world. You'll meet the Reinetos, an aboriginal species left behind by the Robots after they were done exploiting the planet. Some humans remain, while most of them have left for another planet, and the mysterious titular SandWitch. Everyone lives peacefully and helps each other. The characters you meet emphasize the idea of your community being your home. Contribute to the edifice by helping everyone who needs it.
Caravan SandWitch puts a heavy emphasis on inclusivity and environmental themes. The developer believes in a world where we all help each other overcome centuries of environmental consequences, and that ideal is represented in the game. The game also aims to represent a real community and its people.
Life is simple in Caravan SandWitch: there is no combat, no death, and no timer – it is just you, your van, and the world. Accessibility options will be available, though no further details have been released.
Developed by Plane Toast and published by Dear Villagers, Caravan SandWitch will be released digitally for PC via Steam/Epic, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch on September 12.
