Outbreak Studios develops a game based on unique archaeological finds in Sweden.

Outbreak Studios announces today the upcoming game Fylgja, which is based on archaeological findings from the Tulebo area in Gothenburg, Sweden. Fylgja is planned for release in 2011 on Windows and Mac. It will be available for free. Experts, coordinated by the Museum of Mölndal, are involved in the development and the project runs with support from the Torsten Söderbergs foundation. The game is co-developed by Liminal Studio.

Players solve quests in both the Bronze Age (around 400 B.C.) and the Iron Age (700 A.D.). Buildings, clothing, characters and their environment are all based on correct archaeological data, but carefully transformed to a more mystic and magic tone. The story revolves around the girl Tyra who mysteriously falls asleep and time travels to the Bronze Age. There she meets her ancestors and they rely on her to solve conflicts and other challenges to secure the survival of her blood line.
