Indie development duo Powerhoof is today thrilled to announce that their fast-paced, point-and-click thriller, The Drifter, is now available to purchase for Windows, macOS, and Linux via Steam and GOG.com.
The game retails for USD 19.99 / EUR 19.50 / GBP 16.75 / AUD 29.50 - but those looking to dive into the action during the launch window will receive an additional 15% discount.
The game’s cinematic soundtrack is also available to purchase separately or with the game as part of The Drifter: Pixels and Synths Bundle.
To coincide with the launch, an explosive new trailer lays down a thick Ozploitation vibe, building hype and effortlessly setting the tone for players about to experience this pulp adventure thrill ride… A classic 2D point and click adventure with the brake-lines cut - The Drifter propels players breathlessly into a web of shadowy corporations, conspiracy, murder, and the thousand-year obsession of a madman, as they help Mick Carter solve the mystery of his homicide.
The Drifter takes its cues from the modern revival of the adventure genre, delivering an engrossing and unpredictable edge-of-your-seat story. Logical, down-to-earth investigative puzzles act as the sinew between razor-sharp narrative beats.
