Piko Interactive has announced Nintendo 64 cult classic Glover is coming to Steam.
While Glover is coming to Steam “soon”, a tentative release date is set for April 20th, 2022.
Piko Interactive and Bleem! not this version of Glover “is completely redone from the original source code (N64 version of the game)” and features improvements for modern PCs, including Steam features like Achievements and Trading Cards (which they’re currently implementing).
Glover was originally developed by Interactive Studios and published by Hasbro Interactive back in 1998 for the Nintendo 64 and Windows, and later for PlayStation in 1999. A sequel titled Glover 2 was planned but was unfortunately cancelled.
Here’s a rundown on the classic game:
Save the World…Single-handed!
The Kingdom’s peaceful world has been shattered! The wizard, while mixing potions with his magical gloves has caused a huge explosion, turning him instantly to stone and dislodging the seven crystals that give the Kingdom its energy. Without the crystals, the castle and its world will fall apart and the wizard will be lost!
It’s down to Glover, one of the magical gloves, to find the crystals, now disguised as rubber balls and return them safely to the castle. Guide Glover and the balls through seven magical worlds full of puzzles and hidden surprises. Watch out! The evil glove is lurking in the shadows, and he’ll stop at nothing to foil Glover’s attempts at restoring peace.
