Platform:

Skyhill is a luxury hotel. You, as the protagonist, have recently moved into a penthouse there.

Then something happens. World War III, maybe.

As one of few survivors, you hide out in your penthouse and wait for things to settle down. When you run out of supplies, however, you must venture forth in search of more.

Uh-oh. You discover that your neighbors — not to mention a bunch of other people — have turned into mutants. Worse yet, they’re all out to kill you.

Developer Mandragora: “Skyhill is about staying alive when there is no reason to.”

Skyhill is to be released in October 2015 for PC/Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS and Android.

I've been with JA in one capacity or other since 2003. I'm currently website administrator. I'm also a digital artist (my avatar is one of my creations). I write reviews and articles, create graphics and basically help tend the site. It's work I enjoy very much. I love playing games of all kinds, but adventure and RPGs are my favorites (particularly scary/dark/unsettling ones). At the top of my list are The Cat Lady, The Longest Journey, Dreamfall, Still Life (first one only), Scratches and Culpa Innata. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool recluse and prefer the company of animals, hardware and ghosts to human beings (no offense). And no bio would be complete without my saying that I do NOT care for phones of ANY sort. Further, I think Dell computers are garbage and that Microsoft has become megalomaniacal. "I put my heart and soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process." - Vincent Van Gogh "I need solitude for my writing; not like a hermit - that wouldn't be enough - but like a dead man." - Franz Kafka "I've been to hell and back, my boy." - Susan Ashworth, The Cat Lady
