Ken Follett’s The Pillars of the Earth
Developer: Daedalic Entertainment
Publisher: Daedalic Entertainment
Release Date: August 15, 2017
Step into the turbulent world of 12th-century England with Ken Follett’s The Pillars of the Earth, an immersive point-and-click adventure based on the bestselling novel by Ken Follett. Developed and published by Daedalic Entertainment, this critically acclaimed title, first released on August 15, 2017, brings the epic tale of Kingsbridge to life in a stunning interactive format. Spanning three gripping books, this narrative-driven experience combines rich storytelling, breathtaking hand-painted visuals, and meaningful player choices that let you reshape the destinies of unforgettable characters.
In an era defined by poverty, war, and ambition, a small town dares to dream big: the construction of a majestic cathedral to secure wealth and safety for its people. Follow the intertwined lives of three distinct protagonists—Jack, a gifted stonemason raised in the wild; Aliena, a noblewoman fighting to reclaim her family’s honor; and Philip, a devout monk navigating the treacherous politics of the church. As their fates collide amidst a backdrop of feudal intrigue, royal succession crises, and personal struggles, your decisions will alter the course of events from Follett’s beloved novel, offering a fresh yet faithful take on this literary classic.
With over 200 meticulously crafted, hand-painted backgrounds, the game paints a vivid picture of medieval England—from windswept forests and bustling markets to grand cathedrals and shadowy cloisters. Fully animated in a unique 2D art style, every scene brims with atmosphere, enhanced by an orchestral soundtrack recorded by the FILMharmonic Orchestra in Prague and medieval choral elements that capture the spirit of the age. The exceptional voice acting, featuring talents like Glen McCready as Philip, Naomi Sheldon as Aliena, and Cody Molko and Alex Jordan as young and adult Jack, breathes life into the characters, with a special cameo by Ken Follett himself as the voice of the Cantor.
Gameplay blends classic point-and-click mechanics with visual novel elements, emphasizing exploration, dialogue, and choice. Solve environmental puzzles, engage in tense quick-time events, and make decisions that ripple across a 20+ hour epic of war, romance, and redemption. Will you forge alliances or deepen rivalries? Support the cathedral’s construction or prioritize personal survival? The power is yours to influence a story that spans over 30 years of hardship and hope.
