Power Piggs of the Dark Age is a whimsical and action-packed platformer developed by Titus's internal French development team. The game follows two rebellious rock-and-roll pigs, Andy and Mick, who are magically transported back to medieval times by an evil sorcerer's spell and must battle armies of fantastical monsters, dragons, and goblins using makeshift medieval weaponry and heavy metal attitude to find their way home.
