Autumn Knight has released a new trailer for ENCRYPTID, an FMV horror game that uses real footage shot with the Game Boy Camera, also known as the Pocket Camera. Set in 199X, the game follows a player who finds a camera once owned by a cryptozoologist, with recorded footage showing cryptid encounters. Players identify, battle, and capture cryptids using the live-action videos and other resources, while uncovering the fate of the previous owner. The game draws inspiration from monster-catching games of the mid-90s to early 2000s. ENCRYPTID is scheduled for release on PC via Steam and on the Game Boy itself.
