Trüberbrook for mobile devices, which will be September the 3rd. Take a journey to a mysterious 1960s sci-fi world in which nothing is as it seems.
With its superbly unique visual style, German charm, and a thrilling story of the likes of

During the estimated gameplay length of 5 to 8 hours, the player takes the role of young American physicist Hans Tannhauser who, while actually on a holiday, dives into the everyday life of the eponymous village of
Trüberbrook, an ageing but beautiful health resort somewhere in the densely forested countryside of West Germany. He quickly finds out he didn’t get there by accident... but to save the world!
Among other awards,
Trüberbrook is a two-time winner of 2019’s prestigious German Computer Games Awards. After being nominated in four categories, it received the ‘
Best Staging’ award, and was also crowned with ‘
Best German Game 2019’.
Trüberbrook's uncommon visual style is its most distinctive feature, especially on mobile devices. Produced by German-based production studio
btf (bildundtonfabrik), mostly known for their current Netflix series “
How to Sell Drugs Online (Fast)” and the German late night show “
Neo Magazin Royale” with Jan Böhmermann, the sceneries are purely handmade, which means: Manufactured using real hands! And fingers. And masses of glue.
Just have a look at what the developers created in the screenshots attached - piece by piece, by the sweat of their eyebrows. In these models every little detail is custom-made!
To give the game its realistic look, they illuminated each scene in a cinematic way with real film-equipment lighting in different moods. These scenes were then subsequently digitized through photogrammetry and refined. Afterwards, the digitized world got further enriched by digital reflections, real-time shadowing, particle effects, and depth of view. Dubbed by professional speakers like Justin Beard and famous German actors Jan Böhmermann, Nora Tschirner, and Dirk von Lowtzow, both the German as well as English version features high-quality and fun voice acting.
Soon, this surreal experience will be available on your mobile device too. Pre-order now on the
App Store or pre-register on
Google Play. Trüberbrook will also be available on the
Huawei AppGallery, the
Amazon App Store and in
Google Play Pass starting September 3rd.
