Whimsical Quest: A Gnome's Culinary Adventure in Ghunter

In a realm where fantasy intertwines with humor, certain authors have set the standard for imaginative storytelling. While some are known for their epic tales filled with grand conflicts and profound mythology, there are those who prefer to delve into the whimsical and absurd. For such experiences, look no further than the charming universe crafted by Terry Pratchett. This spirit of fun is also captured in the game created by Tiny Tavern, known as Ghunter.

In Ghunter, players assume the role of a gnome hunter tasked with capturing local creatures for delectable dishes intended for their tavern. During the BIG Conference in Bilbao, a few developers shared insights into the genesis of this quirky concept and the vibrant world it inhabits.

The narrative designer from Tiny Tavern noted the intention behind their creation was to craft a peculiar setting—one that would justify the idea of a gnome cooking live creatures. The inspiration drawn from the works of Terry Pratchett led them to envision a magical world filled with oddities. They thought about a witch stirring a cauldron and found humor in the concept of a moldy potato at the center of it all. This land features whimsical elements, including a forest of mushrooms and a fantastical cheese plant, each fulfilling a distinct function within the quirky gameplay.

With the setting established, the developers recognized that they also wanted to infuse the game with meaningful elements. They realized that the process of crafting plates could represent a sacred act, adding a layer of importance to the game's objectives.

The universe of Ghunter certainly intrigues with its peculiar allure. For those curious to explore the gameplay further, more detailed discussions can be found in our complete interview about Ghunter.
