First Installment of ‘Republique’ is the “Free App of the Week” on the App Store!
Independent development studio Camouflaj have announced that the first installment in their action adventure game Republique is now available to download for free on the App Store as part of Apple’s “Free App of the Week” promotion from June 5th to June 13th. Created by industry veterans behind such AAA games as F.E.A.R., Halo 4, and Metal Gear Solid 4, and designed specifically for iOS, Republique brings high quality gameplay and graphics to the iPhone and iPad. In Republique, players assist Hope, a young woman struggling to escape from a secret, Orwellian state. Communicating using a stolen phone, Hope contacts the player and asks them to hack into the nation’s surveillance system, assume control, and guide her out of the clutches of the omnipresent Overseer.
Republique Episode 2: Metamorphosis was released April 30th, which explores the origins of intellectual fascism through the player’s continued efforts to help Hope escape the Orwellian prison. Citing its exploration based stealth action, improved AI, and puzzle focused gameplay, Episode 2: Metamorphosis has been hugely popular. Available in French, German, Spanish, Russian and Brazilian Portuguese, the first episode of Republique is available for free on the App Store for iOS devices as part of Apple’s Free App of the Week promotion until June 13th. For those that want to continue the story, Episode 2: Metamorphosis is available for $4.99 as an in-app purchase. Lastly, Episode 3 is scheduled for a summer 2014 release.
