Embark on a Paleolithic adventure as the new leader of a tribe plagued by a mysterious disease. Polylithic, from Polyperfect studio, is launching to PC in Q3 this year.

Polylithic begins during the Paleolithic era 12,000 years ago. A small tribe leads a difficult yet happy life filled with everyday challenges and threats. That’s until an epidemic breaks out, and the mysterious sickness decimates their people. Could it have been brought by newcomers who fell from the sky? Or is it a punishment sent by angry gods? The tribe’s leader is too old, weak, and tired to even try finding answers to any of these questions. That’s why he assigns this seemingly impossible task to the player as the young successor who’s destined to lead the tribe to a hopefully brighter future.

Polylithic is a third-person crafting survival game set in the Paleolithic/Neolithic era with a dash of sci-fi plot and bursting with colors and beautiful low-poly graphics. Players become the tribe’s new leader. Start slowly by gathering resources, crafting items, unlocking technology, discovering the world, and building bases to eventually grow your tribe and command the settlement.

Key Features of Polylithic:

• Gather, craft, and hunt – Your goal is to gather primary resources to provide the basic means to survive. Collecting various resources and advancing the tech tree lets you set your eyes on the big prize. From rabbits to the mammoths inhabiting the prehistoric wilderness, every animal provides a different challenge to overcome.

• Grow and manage your tribe – There is strength in numbers. Grow your tribe, take care of its needs, and keep your tribe members happy. You can then manage your people and give them tasks in return, leading to them getting better and eventually becoming elders of the tribe.

• Explore the wilderness – There are more than valuable resources in the forests, snow-covered hills, and rivers. Discover the remnants of past tribes and take inspiration to build your own monuments to their memory.

• Embark on a journey through two different eras – You will be taken through two historical ages, each with its own specific core gameplay and flavor. The hunters and gatherers are a small migrating group trying to survive. Advance enough through the tech tree to unlock the requirements to settle down permanently as farmers.

Polylithic will launch on Steam Early Access in Q3 this year.
