Pilgrims is a graphic adventure game developed and published by Amanita Design. It was released on October 6, 2019, for Microsoft Windows, iOS devices, and Linux operating systems.

Development[ | ]

The idea for the game originally came from a card mini-game found in Samorost 3, which is another game from Amanita Design. For two years, this game was developed by a team led by Jakub Dvorský.

Gameplay[ | ]

With this game being a point-and-click adventure game, the player controls an adventurer who wants to take a boat ride, but the female owner of the boat refuses to take him on the ride until he catches a bird for her. This adventurer is eventually joined by other characters, including a crone, a devil, a robber, and a princess. Each of them has a problem that the player has to solve in order to get the elusive bird, but every single one of them also the ability to help him with his quest.

The world of this game is made with a series of scenes that can be found across the world map. The player can click on objects and pick them up while looking at a scene. These collected objects and the characters who are with the player are represented by a deck of cards under the scene view. The player can use these cards by dragging them from the deck onto the scene. The player can apply several solutions for multiple problems by choosing another character or another item, hence why the storyline of this game can be somewhat altered.
