About the Game

After twenty years away from home following a horrific and unspeakable tragedy, Phillipe Archibald returns to his homeland after receiving a mysterious letter from his grandfather, Octavius. Instead of the place he once knew, he finds a land ravaged by despair, famine, and death, all under the iron rule of Joseph Blackthorn, the new royal advisor to a dying king.

What begins as a simple visit to a beloved family member soon descends into a nightmare beyond imagination.
