Tombwater Map Reveal
[p]Howdy gunslingers!
[/p][p]The folks at GamesRadar+ just featured our map reveal, giving the first peek at nearly the full scope of the game. Honestly, we were having so much fun that we didn’t quite realize how big the map was growing as we were building! [/p][p][/p][p]There are nearly 20 distinct biomes to progress through in a non-linear fashion, with a mix of areas you can explore at any time and others that you need to unlock by gaining an ability, procuring an item, or defeating a boss. At launch, Tombwater is estimated to take 20-25 hours of gameplay for completion. So, pack a canteen and some jerky and prepare to stay awhile! [/p][p][/p][p]
[/p][p]For context, the current demo explores the Spanish Fort, an experience that shares only 5% of this extensive playable map.
[/p][p]Detailed Points of Interest[/p]
[/p][p]We’d love to have you in the loop on our social channels. You can follow the developer, Max Mraz, on Bluesky and join the Midwest Games Discord for ongoing game updates.

[/p]
- [p]Thistle Gulch includes:[/p]
- [p]A vast expanse of scrubland before the mesa ruins. The area is dangerously filled with hungry coyotes, oversized spiders, and other indescribable creatures. [/p]
- [p]A gateway to Tombwater Lake, the source of Silverwater rumored to have made the townspeople unnaturally strong. [/p]
- [p]Thistle Ranch, an abandoned homestead, dotted with the bloated remains of cattle and shambling figures picking their way between the carcasses.[/p]
- [p]Its namesake thistles can grow thick and tall. Visitors will need to make sure they have found some way of creating fire to clear a path.[/p]
