About the Game

The lizards have kidnapped the princess, so three great heroes of ancestors must venture into the deep enemy territory. Show the tyrants that jokes with the Slavs are not tolerated and bring the captive home!
An adventure awaits you in the legendary Hyperborea. The harsh truth of human ancestors, hidden from us for centuries by Masons and historians.

Through forests, fields, and swamps

Follow the crawling creature through numerous atmospheric locations, punishing the enemies of the KIN with funny and rough heroic actions, annihilating them left and right.

You will see

  • Beloved landscapes of Hyperborea, inspired by Bilibin;
  • Kikimors, Babka-Yobka, Lizards, and other characters from ancient Slavic folklore;
  • You choose how the main hero will act.

In what lies your strength, Slavic?

What is dearer to you, the age-old wisdom of ancestors or the genetic cunning of lizards?
Whose bosom will you treasure, whose side will you take? Milfs-Princesses or Queens-Lizardwomen?

You will encounter:
  • Five endings;
  • Relationship system between characters;
  • A tragic tale of friendship, power, and lost knowledge
