Time-Based Narrative Flies to iOS: Reviver Debuts

Author: Adam Jan 20,2025

Reviver: Butterfly is finally fluttering onto iOS and Android! Initially slated for a Winter 2024 release, the game, previously known simply as Reviver, will now debut on January 17th. This delightful narrative adventure puts you in the role of a subtle force of nature, guiding the paths of two star-crossed lovers.

For those unfamiliar, Reviver (now Reviver: Butterfly on mobile and Reviver: Premium on other platforms) casts you as an unseen influence, subtly shaping the lives of the two protagonists as they journey from youth to old age. While the definition of "wholesome" is subjective, Reviver's intriguing premise, where you never directly interact with the main characters, makes for a captivating experience.

The Butterfly Effect (and a Name Change)

The mobile gaming landscape is often crowded, leading to naming conflicts. This appears to be the case with Reviver, which explains the addition of "Butterfly" to the title. While this slight delay pushed the release under the radar, it's exciting to see it finally arrive!

The iOS app store listing indicates a free prologue, allowing potential players to sample the gameplay before committing. It also highlights the intriguing details of the game and offers a chance to experience Reviver before its official Steam launch.
