About the Game

In the middle of the night, an unfamiliar path through Ukrainian woods leads you to a long-forgotten village.

It was abandoned and forgotten a long time ago. Night track through the forest is treacherous. Maybe you should take refuge in one of the abandoned houses? Time passes, but sunrise never comes. Still, you feel a chill on your spine. Seems like there is someone else still living here, and a mysterious presence slithering along the shadows of dilapidated buildings.

You need to find the way out of here. Survive. And, maybe, find out what happened to this place. What mysteries and tragedies were hidden here?

Features:

  • Exploration-driven narrative - explore the village to solve its mysteries and find your way out.

  • Extensive Inventory/Analysis system - allowing combinations of key information and found items and objects to unlock interactions and dialogue options.

  • The Dating Sim aspect - giving the ability to build up trust between characters.

  • Branching narrative with multiple endings.

  • Horror-Mystery built on Ukrainian folklore.

  • Visual novel / Point&Click adventure hybrid gameplay.

  • Puzzles.
