Peter Molyneux, the brain behind Fable, Theme Park, Dungeon Keeper, and more recently Godus, has released his new game in the Google Play Store. The Trail sees the player arrive at a fictional country during its settlement to explore the area, collect and trade items and eventually make their fortune.

It’s said to be something of a relaxing title, with an emphasis on exploring the painterly locations rather than quick reactions or deep strategizing. Players are lead along fixed paths through a variety of settings with the help of an in-game trail guide, interacting with a cast of vibrant characters along the way.

The art and music stood out in my short playtest with it – the expansive vistas are impressive – but I wonder if a landscape format would have been better given the emphasis on the landscapes themselves.
