• Solve a mountain mystery via the medium of creepy cards in Hillthorn, which has an excellent demo - 28 August 2026

  Attention, dusty creeps who want to play poker with the Wickerman! I found one, a videogame you might enjoy. That game is Hillthorn, a spooky investigative cardgame from Fool Moon and Finnegan Motors - the latter also known for beaming corpo thriller Inhuman Resources: A Literary Machination . Hillthorn is the story of a detective hired to investigate a disappearance at a secluded mountain community. One of the first things you do, after hassling a worryingly stained forest ranger for directions, is cross a line of salt on the trail. Seems like something a person familiar with the occult would avoid doing, but you are a Private Eye, armed with logic and cynicism. Besides, all of this is presented via the medium of cards. Who's afraid of cards? What are they going to do, give you a paper cut? Ouch! Oh, maybe don't bleed on the salt. Read more

Q: How would you describe the art style of Hillthorn? A: Dramatic and stark. Q: Why did you choose this art style for the game? A: Hillthorn’s narrative and gameplay are very mysterious, and I found that the lack of dialogue gave the interactions a shadowy, almost dreamlike quality. I wanted to choose an art style that would enhance that vibe. Q: What were your main inspirations for how you wanted the game to look? A: One inspiration taken from real life was Victorian portrait photography. I was also really into Robert Valley at the time - particularly his use of shadows and contrast, and his evocative character designs. Q: Was this the art style you always wanted for the game or did…
