About the Game

Guardian of Altai is an atmospheric adventure inspired by the myths and spirits of ancient Altai.

Become a shaman — the last guardian of balance between worlds. Channel the power of the elements, beat your ritual drum, and fight back the darkness that has covered the land. Your journey will take you deep into the underworld to save what remains.

Step into a world where every sound and symbol pulses with ancient magic. Free the trapped spirits, defeat the spawn of Erlik, and restore harmony before it’s too late.

  • Battles with mythical creatures and shamanic magic in action

  • A diegetic interface — nothing on screen but the ritual

  • A cozy yurt… and a purring cat

  • Ethno-fantasy visual style and atmospheric soundtracks

Reconnect with the spirits.

Become a shaman. Become the Guardian of Altai.
