Renowned indie developer BeXide has officially announced that their latest escape adventure game, The Fox’s Way Home, will debut on Nintendo Switch on January 9, 2025.
This highly anticipated title will be available exclusively through the Nintendo eShop, further expanding the Nintendo Switch library with a fresh and creative gameplay experience. About The Fox’s Way Home on Nintendo Switch The Fox’s Way Home introduces players to a mystical world that straddles the line between reality and the supernatural.
In this intriguing escape adventure, gamers must rely on the guidance of a mystical Fox Shrine Maiden to navigate the otherworld and ultimately find their way back home.
The structure of the game draws inspiration from modern escape room and observation puzzle games, offering players an engaging yet accessible experience suited for Nintendo Switch’s broad audience. Gameplay Features Players of The Fox’s Way Home will primarily engage with the Shrine Maiden's ritual dances.
Careful observation is critical: each dance serves as a clue or a sequence to remember, building on classic pattern recognition and attention-to-detail mechanics.
Throughout the journey, trickster apparitions known as "mononoke" will attempt to mislead the player by mimicking the Shrine Maiden’s moves and appearance.
Players must remain vigilant—correctly identifying genuine rituals versus imitations is the key to progressing and lighting all eight lanterns, which symbolize steps toward escaping the supernatural realm. A notable element of the game includes the ‘Apparition Encyclopedia,’ where exposed mononoke forms are catalogued, encouraging replayability and completionism.
