About the Game

Defy Fate and Save Your Sister

Hard times have befallen the once-glorious noble House of Báthory. Vultures circle the family's untold riches, eager to claim what's left. You are Sophia, one of the last surviving members of the Báthory bloodline. Your elder sister has been falsely accused of vampirism and entombed alive in her own castle. Under the cover of night, you set out on a desperate mission: rescue her and restore your family’s lost honor.

Fight or die

Travel through a desolate land filled with peril: from crumbling villages to shadowy caves and towering stone walls guarded by ruthless soldiers. Face wild beasts, merciless bandits, restless dead, and true creatures of the night in brutal, fast-paced combat. Slash them with saber and axe, shoot them with pistol and bow, throw bombs and use every weapon at your disposal to survive.

A World of Danger and Mystery

The world is full of hidden paths and secrets waiting to be found. Explore every corner, unlock new areas, and discover equipment and abilities to push further into the unknown. Restore your health with beer and stay sharp by fighting off intoxication with hearty goulash. Meet strangers and learn their stories, revealing more about the world around you. Fantasy meets history in a twisted vision of the 16th-century Kingdom of Hungary, blending folklore and brutal reality to create an unforgettable experience.
