About the Game

Since ancient times, ravens have been perceived as messengers between worlds—guardians of secrets and observers of fate. fCorvus is a puzzling journey that celebrates the intelligence of the most enigmatic bird in history. Unveil 80 legends through hand-drawn illustrations and a profound, original soundtrack.

1. The Puzzle — Piece the Scenery Together

Every landscape, every feather, and every shadow has been meticulously hand-drawn by a single artist. The unique visual style of India ink on aged paper transports the player into an ancient tome of secrets, where classical aesthetics merge with the modern challenge of a 96-piece jigsaw.

2. Point and Click — The Flight Begins

Once the image is complete, the scenery stirs to life. Ravens and crows cross the screen, unpredictable and ever-watchful of your presence. Test your agility and click upon them before they vanish into the shadows.

3. Search and Find — Become the Investigator

At last, the true mystery reveals itself. Follow the clues, interpret the symbols, and decipher the riddles that point toward the correct raven. Find what is hidden and be rewarded with fragments of forgotten wisdom.

A Symphony for the Shadows

The atmosphere of fCorvus is sustained by an exceptional soundtrack, the result of a collaboration between four composers. The music is not merely a backdrop but a narrative layer that blends realistic ambient nature sounds with compositions that evoke both the epic and the melancholy.

Four Chapters, Eighty Secrets

Journey through environments rich in symbolism, each harboring 20 collectible ravens:

  • Church and Graveyard: Where the sacred meets eternal rest.

  • Castle and War: The ravens’ banquet upon fields of honor and blood.

  • Urban and Pop: The species' adaptation to concrete and the modern imagination.

  • Mythology and Folklore: The raven as a messenger of gods and a guide of souls.

Experience Highlights:

  • Artisanal Immersion: Atmospheric landscapes inspired by deep mythology and historical symbolism.

  • Contemplative Gameplay: A relaxing experience focused on the joy of discovery and learning.

  • Intellectual Challenge: Riddles that reward curiosity and the player’s cultural repertoire.

  • Global Lore: Fascinating insights and curiosities about corvids from around the world.

  • Evocative Soundscape: An immersive soundtrack designed for a meditative state of play.

More than a game, fCorvus is a playful encyclopedia on the historical significance of the corvid family.
