News: A new adventure featuring drilling that is trying to evoke classic platformers will arrive on Switch and PC next year.

Devolver Digital and independent game developer Ahr Ech have revealed their new title, Pepper Grinder. Pepper Grinder is an action-packed drill-bit “digventure” that is trying to evoke classic platformers.

Shipwrecked and robbed of her treasure by nefarious Narlings, Pepper - a seafaring soul with a passion for prospecting - must spin up her trusty sidearm to reclaim what the mischievous minions stole. Armed with Grinder, Pepper burrows through terrain & water, controls machines, and pulverizes all enemies blocking the way to recovering her missing fortune, with interest.

Pepper's progress will not be that simple, however, as mysterious beings begin to emerge from the shadows. Pepper Grinder will feature a colorfully animated world with precise movements, fluid drilling, and thrilling leaps. You will chew through the world with Grinder and find new drill bits to ramp up the chaos and solve clever puzzles.

During your adventure, you will pick up jewels and other riches and cash them in at shops to power up Pepper, open new paths on the world map, and snag collectible stickers for your sticker book.

Take a look at the trailer below and then tell us what you think about Pepper Grinder. Will you be picking it up when it is released?
