Flame in the Flood dev unveils spooky village building adventure Drake Hollow

Coming to Xbox One and PC next year.

The Molasses Flood, the developer behind 2016's rogue-like river survival game The Flame in the Flood, has unveiled its latest adventure, Drake Hollow.

There's not a huge amount of detail to share about Drake Hollow just yet, but The Molasses Flood's newly launched website refers to the game as a "action village building" experience.

It all unfolds in a corrupted world where players can team up with friends to explore, gather supplies, battle monsters, and build villages to protect the local population - which just so happen to be tiny vegetable people known as, you guessed it, Drakes.

Drake Hollow is currently pencilled in for a 2020 release date on Xbox One and PC.
