SlugGlove, an indie game developer, along with publisher Yogscast Games, has released a new trailer that explores the core narrative of Rhell: Warped Worlds & Troubled Times. Set for release on March 12, 2026, the game invites players into a semi-open world puzzle adventure where they control Rhell, described as a loud-mouthed and hot-headed mage. The story centers on investigating the sudden disappearance of the population, leaving behind empty towns and only 12 remaining inhabitants.
Players collect and combine up to 40 magical runes, using as many as five at a time to devise creative solutions for puzzles. Examples include duplicating oneself to create a puddle that holds down a switch or casting a life spell on a rock to turn it into a makeshift vehicle. The world features nine distinct areas, such as flooded libraries, underwater cities, volcanic factories, and crystal caves, each rich with environmental storytelling and hidden lore.
As Rhell explores forgotten ruins and interacts with the few survivors, players uncover ancient secrets and decode mysterious fragments to piece together the catastrophe's cause. Choices matter: helping lonely characters can lead Rhell to develop a more caring personality, while ignoring them keeps her blunt demeanor intact. These decisions contribute to multiple endings. The trailer offers a quick dive into the plot, emphasizing the mystery that evolves into a challenge to preconceived notions. A free demo allows early access to the gameplay.
