About the Game

A group of friends sets up camp near an old lake. One of them recalls a childhood ritual once popular in his country: a way to summon The Dame using a mirror and a Queen of Spades card. What starts as a harmless game around the campfire quickly turns into something else. The night thickens, reflections distort, and somewhere in the distance… wind chimes begin to ring.

Explore the lakeside campsite, the tunnels beneath it, and the abandoned cathedral with its graveyard.
Follow the sound of bells, they may guide you to safety. Or straight to her.

The Dame is a first-person psychological horror focused on atmosphere, exploration, and the fear of anticipation. There are no safe places here: only silence, whispers, and the gaze from beyond the mirror.

Key Features

  • First-person exploration across the forest, lake, and forgotten ruins;
