After four years of production, the husband and wife team behind Inklingwood Studios, David & Sophie Younger, are proud to announce the release of Foolish Mortals on November 5, 2025. Foolish Mortals is a full-length, fully voiced, hand-drawn game in the classic style, inspired by games like Monkey Island and Broken Sword.

The story? Louisiana, 1933. Thirty-three years ago an entire wedding suddenly & mysteriously vanished on the island of Devil's Rock, and with it went the location of the lost treasure of Bellemore Manor. To find it, you might need to die too.
