Panache Digital Games shared a gameplay feature video of 1666: Amsterdam, where Co-Founder and Executive Producer Jean-François Boivin talked about the main characters from the game, Noa and Aaron.
1666: Amsterdam is a story-led action-adventure game that is set in three timelines: 1666, 1999, and the present day. It originally entered development in 2014, but later the project was cancelled. During Summer Game Fest 2026, Patrice Désilets, Co-Creator of Assassin’s Creed, re-announced the game.
In the gameplay feature, Boivin explains that Noa Brooklyn is a young woman born in Amsterdam who works as an apothecary’s apprentice, but she holds a secret: she is an heir to the Zaindaris, a lineage of women entrusted with a mission, passing down ancient knowledge from generation to generation.
Noa has to find the Originals, people corrupted by an ancient magic called the Nux. To do so, she has to use the skills and tools that she has inherited, like the Heeparan, an artifact that attaches to the person bearing it and allows her to absorb the Nux.
