Reviver: Butterfly, the charming narrative game we previewed in October, is finally fluttering onto iOS and Android devices! Initially slated for a Winter 2024 release, it’s arriving a bit later than expected, with a confirmed launch date of January 17th. Interestingly, the mobile versions will be titled Reviver: Butterfly and Reviver: Premium, seemingly identical releases.
In Reviver, you play a subtle force of nature, guiding the paths of two star-crossed lovers, subtly influencing their lives to bring them together. The game’s unique charm lies in its perspective; you never directly interact with or see the protagonists, yet you witness their journey from youth to old age. It’s a wholesome and intriguing premise.
The only real snag? The game’s name. It seems the simple title “Reviver” was already taken, leading to the slightly more elaborate titles for the mobile release. This may have contributed to the delay, but thankfully, Reviver: Butterfly is finally here!
The iOS app store listing reveals a free prologue, allowing potential players to sample the game before committing. It also hints at other intriguing details and boasts early access ahead of the Steam release. Get ready to experience this unique narrative adventure on your mobile device!
