About the Game

The Witch 

is a first-person indie horror game in the adventure genre.

The average playthrough time is 60 minutes.

Hoher Verde

The sudden disappearance of entire villages and settlements is one of the many mysteries of our world. Such incidents give rise to myths and incredible legends that have been passed on by word of mouth for generations. Interestingly enough, the investigation into the case was soon dropped, and the data about the 600 missing residents remained classified - today there is very little information about the settlement, and no one can say with certainty what really happened in Hoher Verde.

Description

An entire village has become deserted for some unknown reason. The eerie atmosphere and strange sounds suggest that you are not alone.

Jesse Grinn, a journalist from an independent newspaper, goes to Hoer Verde to uncover the mystery of the missing people and get to the truth.

Gameplay

You will have to visit a frightening place that holds a lot of secrets.

Beautiful graphics and high-quality 3D-sound will help you to fully penetrate the atmosphere of the game.
