8 itemsAbout the Game
Welcome to the valley, where the fog not only veils the landscape but also blurs the line between what once was and what remained a fleeting fantasy.
In this remote mountain valley, cut off from the world and swallowed by endless mist, time loops without end. You follow forgotten paths that suddenly feel strangely familiar.
In the hidden corners of the valley, you recognize places from your childhood - forest trails, stone bridges. They awaken memories: old dreams, past fears, unfulfilled ambitions. Yet with them stirs something darker - beings born from pop culture, urban legends, and horror stories of the late ’70s and early ’80s, now standing before you as real threats. And even more dangerous are those adversaries that materialize from our own subconscious fears.
The Day I Will Die is a first-person action thriller with a dynamic, varied combat system. Using a diverse arsenal of weapons, you will confront enemies shaped by childhood fears and dark legends of the past. As you traverse the valley, step by step, you draw closer to understanding what truly happened - and what still waits behind the veil of mist. In the end, you will also face what we have created within ourselves as adults.
The Day I Will Die is a story about the passage of time, lost dreams, and the struggle to come to terms with what can no longer be changed.
