Ivy Road and Annapurna Interactive just dropped their new game Wanderstop on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Steam. Anyone interested can buy it for $24.99 right away. The game tells a deep story about making tea and dealing with life changes as you play through its cozy world.
Daniel "C418" Rosenfeld created over 80 relaxing songs for Wanderstop. This same composer also made all the music for Minecraft. The soundtrack can be found on Steam, Bandcamp, Spotify, and many other music services if you want to listen when you're not playing.
You play as Alta, a fighter who fell from grace and must run a tea shop hidden in a magical forest. She helps travelers who visit by making them special teas. The game focuses on relationships and storytelling as you meet different characters passing through your shop.
Players harvest ingredients from around the forest and mix them in a weird tea-brewing machine. Every visitor has a unique story, and you make custom teas just for them. But Alta hates being stuck as a shopkeeper - she believes she should be fighting instead.
Alta struggles with her new role because she sees herself as a championship warrior. She feels angry about becoming a "docile shopkeeper" when she knows she has amazing fighting skills. Alta keeps telling herself she won't accept this change in her life, but players watch as she faces this personal challenge.
