The Pillars of the Earth - A one-of-a-kind 2D interactive novel available on GOG/Steam by Daedalic Entertainment!


One of my all time favourite TV series was Pillars of the Earth, a TV adaption of the best selling historical book of the same name by Ken Follett, which tells the story of the construction of a mighty Gothic cathedral set in the twelfth-century, with all the abuse, sadness, fighting and love that followed the tale. But today as a shocking surprise, Daedalic Entertainment has announced that their highly anticipated interactive novel, The Pillars of the Earth, is now available on PC, Mac, Linux, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.


According to the team behind this beautiful looking Adventure game, The Pillars of the Earth is a one-of-a-kind 2D interactive novel, which follows Jack, Aliena, and Phillip, the three playable main characters as they contend with envy, murder and politics in their quest to build a gothic cathedral in Kingsbridge and revitalize the town. Also as a heads up by Daedalic, the story will continue beyond the first release, as the game will be released in three “books,” each consisting of seven chapters.

The Pillars of the Earth features:

  • 21 chapters depicting the famous thousand-page novel
  • Interactive storyline events that can be changed, influencing the fates of its characters
  • Key decision points with meaningful, emotionally-engaging story choices
  • Over 200 hand-painted backgrounds featuring faithful rendition of 12th century life
  • Three main playable protagonists, plus two extra playable characters
  • An orchestral soundtrack by the FILMharmonic Orchestra, Prague
