GreedFall is a third-person action-adventure RPG by developer Spiders, originally released on September 10, 2019. Some of the studio's prior titles to that point included Mars: War Logs and The Technomancer, and though both saw modest receptions, they didn't really make a big splash. However, with GreedFall, the studio became a sort of early case of those producing what would be labeled "AA" games, sitting somewhere above indie but not quite reaching into AAA territory. This gave it a distinct edge, as it offered something outside the usual experiences of what was largely being made at the time.
