Papa Sangre II
« on: August 06, 2013, 04:59:57 AM »
Papa Sangre II stars Sean Bean

Quote
It’s been a hell of a journey getting Papa II ready for release, but we are nearly there and it is sounding immense. We are pleased to announce that we have secured the Game of Thrones and Lord of The Rings star Sean Bean as the main guide through the game. And if you know Sean Bean, you’ll guess Papa II isn’t Mexican but very very British.

Hello. This is Nicky from the Papa Sangre team.  It's really useful to see all of your comments on this site and we really value your support of our audio games.

A longer trailer which reveals a bit more is coming very soon. 

We are really excited about the game, and feel it is a good step on from both Papa 1 and The Nightjar - Sean Bean is excellent in it. I am happy to talk more about the game here and answer any questions you have.

What I love is the fact that Papa Sangre has gone from being kind of Mexican Day of the Dead to very British with Sean in it,” said Birch. “And lots of the references now are very British, so there’s lots of discussion about kind of ‘end of the pier,’ which is I think a very British thing here — walking down the pier on the seaside.”

At eight hours, Papa Sangre 2 is a surprisingly long walk, with 18 levels to explore.

Gaming in darkness: 'Papa Sangre II' is a terrifying world made entirely of sound
Let Sean Bean be your guide through the underworld
With short Sean Bean interview

Quote
." It's the kind of narrator who you can never quite trust. "You don't know if he's your friend, if he's trying to help you, or if he's trying to lead you into a trap or into danger," Bean explains. "It was a neutral, unbiased, impartial kind of voice, so it was up to the player try to figure out whether I was their friend or not."
 
 "It's very hard to imagine what it's all about," says Bean. That was true even after he had read the script and talked to the game's producer. It wasn't until he actually played the game that he understood. "Because it's something purely audio, it's much more scary, and there's much more tension," he says. "It's terrifying having a go at it."

148 Apps: What feedback have you received for Papa Sangre II? Do you feel the involvement of Sean Bean as narrator has made a huge difference to the success of the game?
NB: We have been overwhelmed with the response for Papa Sangre II – both in blog reviews and also player reviews. At the time of this interview, Papa Sangre II is the highest rated British iOS game of all time (and also the highest rated across the world this year). So that is a real honor and a fantastic response to our team’s passion and commitment to pushing creative and technical boundaries. Having Sean on board has helped that to an extent as he has fans across the world who know him from his movie work and Game of Thrones. Also when you play the game you can hear how great Sean plays his role and his first class performance adds a real edge to the drama.

Telegraph Video Game Awards 2013

Best sound design
WINNER Somethin' Else for Papa Sangre II

Quote
An exquisite lesson in utilising binaural audio to create a sense of place, Papa Sangre surrounds you with tinkling objectives you must find your way to, the terrifying chatter of mind-lice and the smooth Yorkshire baritone of Sean Bean. Few examples of sound design are strong enough to create such tension. Even fewer games are brave enough to hang their entire sense of being on it.
