In 2021, Danish video game developer Bedtime Digital Games will release 'Figment: Creed Valley,' a unique action-adventure game that takes place within the human mind. The game follows up the original 'Figment,' which similarly features a pair of heroic characters named Dusty and Piper.
In the Creed Valley sequel, players will have to navigate the whimsical world, solving puzzles and overcoming a series of challenges that will lead them through an exploration of "The Mind’s two fundamental states: Open-minded and Closed-minded." Players will be able to switch between the two states throughout the game, and will have to adapt to the changing environment that each one brings as they work to combat the nightmares that are quickly spreading.
