Welcome to the pitch-black darkness of a forgotten village in Anatolia. Here, a curse of unknown origin has taken root beneath the earth, shattering the night’s silence with sinister whispers.
Haunted: Village is a first-person, story-driven folkloric horror experience. In an abandoned settlement, you’ll uncover the mystery behind an ancient sorcery and the malevolent entity that has enslaved the entire village. With every step, you must beware not only of the darkness itself but of the evil that stalks these lands.
ROOTS OF A FORGOTTEN CURSE
The curse that shrouds this village is the whisper of an age-old evil reaching back into the depths of time. What happened here long ago? What unspeakable sin stained this land and awakened the dormant malice? Your mission is to piece together this forgotten tragedy by gathering scattered notes, symbols, and clues—and to sever the curse at its source.
KEY FEATURES
Turkish-Islamic Horror Fusion: Set on Anatolia’s ancient soil, the most unsettling elements of Turkic and Islamic mythology collide. Spirits, malevolent entities, protective talismans, and dark rituals combine to deliver a form of terror you’ve never experienced before.
Curse-Breaking Mechanics: Encounter supernatural locks and spells that bar your path. To shatter the curse, you must scour your surroundings, connect disparate clues, and solve diabolical puzzles.
Shocking and Tragic Narrative: More than just a horror game, this is the merciless tale of a buried atrocity and a concealed sin. As you unveil the truth behind the curse, you’ll confront the darkest corners of the human soul.
The Menace of Darkness and Sound: Navigate pitch-black environments with only limited light sources. Every crackle, whisper, and distant murmur will keep you on edge and strain your sanity.
Village Exploration: Though progression is linear, the game delivers moments of disorienting freedom in vast, shadowy fields, as well as claustrophobic terror in narrow, inescapable corridors. Danger can strike at any moment, from anywhere.
Are you brave enough to exhume the sin buried within this village and break the curse? But remember, some secrets are meant to remain entombed forever.
