About the Game

A bit of history

For generations, a small village has been protecting a sacred book capable of defeating the witches who threaten the survival of humanity.
However, one night, a blood red moon appeared in the sky, it did not bode well...
Within an hour, the village was decimated by a witch in search of the sacred book.

Unfortunately, the guardians who knew where the book was hidden took the secret to their graves.
You and three of your neighbors are the only survivors capable of stopping this disaster by finding the sacred book.

You must be quick because the witch is also searching for it and if she manages to destroy it, humanity will be doomed to chaos...
But escaping is also an option, right?

Escape or Banish? You will have a choice


Sorrowful Night is an asymmetrical multiplayer game in 4 against 1, allowing you to take turns playing as a witch or one of the 4 villagers.
As a villager, you will have a choice:

- Try to banish the threat forever to return to your peaceful life
- Flee, because your survival is at stake, and you do not wish to risk your life any longer.

Keep in mind that if the witch survives, she will inevitably attack other villages. And imagine if she manages to destroy the sacred book?
She would become invincible!
Know that if you succeed in banishing the witch, you will be rewarded for your bravery.
