It may seem that at the moment it is not clear what the Czech studio Amanita Design will come up with, in which such classics as Samorost, Machinarium or Skripy. After all, if we look at his official website, we will not find anything newer on it than the horror film “Happy Game”, which was released last fall. But in this case, looks are deceiving.

For several years now, in relative silence and invisibility, there has been talk of a dystopian adventure called Phonopolison which a team of three people began to work and which it is created using handmade paper modelswhich are then converted into 3D models and then processed for game animations. Over time, Amanita took the team of authors under her wing., as in the case of Creaks, but we have not heard anything about the game for a long time. However, now Amanita Design reminds us that we still have to count on her, through a photo of a paper character. So we can assume that soon we will hear more about Phonopolis..

The game received the most attention in the documentary The New Game. since 2017. Its author, Aleš Brunklik, then looked at the tooth Samorost 3artificial intelligence project GoodAI by Space Engineers of Keen Software House, horror VR ghost theory Dreadlocks and Phonopolis. In early 2019, the head of Amanity, Jakub Dworski, mentioned in an interview for the Ekonom.cz server that the title could not be published in China due to the dystopian theme..
In other words, Phonopolis has been around for years, but in the case of Amanita Design projects, this is not all that unusual.. However, the question is when the game will finally be released. 2023 can be mentioned here and there, but we are still waiting for the official announcement of the release date. In the meantime, you can watch a short clip from the New Game documentary.
