Summary
Welcome to Brightville is a new game by Kazakh developer Contrast Games, which combines Victorian/steampunk aesthetics with a musical twist.
The game world is built on “manapunk”, a blend of industrial Victorian architecture, neo-baroque extravagance, and futuristic cyberpunk elements, all set within a magic-meet-machines universe.
Players are spell-slinging automatons in a world controlled by a villainous AI, travelling through a nonlinear game world that offers branching storylines and immersive combat.
The game is slated for release on PC in 2027, and is Contrast Games’ first major in-house creation, having previously specialised in porting.
Welcome to Brightville’s appeal lies in its unique manapunk world-building, musical elements, and its variety of spell-based, stealth, and manipulation gameplay.
