And they're quite stylish, might I add.Gamerbraves Interview with Lead Quest Designer Maria Hamilton and Production Director Patrick DawsonSpeaking about the Niffen and the Sniff N Seek, could you talk about that’s going to work?

Maria Hamilton: The way it works is that you have an individual relationship with a particular Niffen, this is his favourite activity. As you build up your friendship with him, and your renown with the Niffen, he is going to be able to take you to different places. What you encounter in those different places will depend on what you tell him you are looking for.

Keep it in mind, he doesn’t see very well, he only smells. So you are gonna need to figure out how to ask him for certain things. So if you are looking for certain kind of treasure, you’re gonna figure out what is that smells like to him, and then ask him ‘Hey, can you take me to places that smells like this’.

And then when you get there, you may have a puzzle to solve, you may have some creatures to fight, because he’s gonna be able to take you to places that others can’t reach. So it’s gonna be based on what you request that he take you to, and then also based on what you’ve done previously, because we don’t want to give you the same one in a row for example, so we’ll be keeping track of that information.

There is an element of sort of you guiding it to a certain extent. But it does have to do with how well you know him, how clearly you can communicate with him, what you like.
