It’s not every day that you annoy a witch so much to the point where she imprisons you in a gothic world. Well, Vincent has only gone and done just that. Welcome to Whateverland on Xbox, PlayStation and Switch, where your wildest dreams can be a possibility.
Can you help out the residents of this bizarre gothic world, and mount an ambitious escape attempt?
Choose Your Path
Whateverland is now available on Xbox, PlayStation and Switch, over a year on from its original PC debut.
In a welcome departure from other point-and-clickers, in which there’s usually only one way to solve the puzzle, Whateverland always puts mortality at the forefront. Do you choose to solve puzzles by helping others however you can, or do you punish your fellow prisoners, and serve only yourself?
The choice is yours, and the branching dialogue options further the idea that Whateverland is indeed whatever you make of it.
As well as puzzle solving, Whateverland offers up a variety of mini-games for you to enjoy, each as beautifully weird as the last. We won’t spoil too much, but when you find yourself playing a sports game and then interviewing a dog, you know this is all types of weird!
Key Features
- A not so classic point-n-click.

Whateverland on Xbox Game Description
Whateverland is a hand-painted point-n-click adventure game with a branching dialogue system, non-linear gameplay, various endings, and unique in-game turn-based strategy sports simulator.
Vincent is a skilled thief who decides to steal a precious necklace from a mansion of a lonely old lady named Beatrice. His plan would have gone perfectly well, but when she catches him red-handed, she turns out to be an ancient and powerful witch. As a punishment, Beatrice sends him to the parallel world she has created, where the witch traps those she considers her enemies. The first inhabitants of this bizarre world called it Whateverland, and since then it kind of stuck. Vincent teams up with a weird guy named Nick, and together they are willing to find their way out.
Are they going to make it? That’s up to you!
