Today, the game's developer Binary Tweed and its publisher Blitz 1Up announced that the game, renamed as Clover: A Curious Tale, will be released via digital download on March 3. The PC version retains the unique water colored art 2D art style of the original game as well as its main political themed storyline.

The PC port will contain new animations, graphics and effects along with new puzzles that make the game over twice as long to play as the original. There's also four new endings to the game along with a full voice cast, Spanish and French translation and more.
