About the Game

The story of Sanctus


Sanctus is a game from the TPP segment, containing logic puzzles and stealth elements. The presented story will be kept in the convention of drama and horror with erotic elements.
The game is set in the second half of the 14th century in one of Polish monasteries. Set on a small island, the building seems to be a place detached from the rest of the world.

The main character, Anna, is a young woman who decides to enter a monastery. The young nun soon realizes that the convent holds many dark secrets.

The inquisitors who visit the place use their position to abuse, torture, and humiliate the young nuns in the name of expelling sin.
The Mother Superior, who runs the order, reluctantly agrees to this treatment of her charges, due to fear of losing her power and exclusion from the church.



One of the most popular Polish writers of recent years - Jacek Piekara, the author of the best-selling series "Ja, Inkwizytor", is responsible for the script and dialogues in the game.

The role of main character of the game will be played by a well-known Polish actress and artist - Matylda Damięcka, who will lend the image and voice of the main character of the game - Anna.
