About the Game

Upirja is a first-person horror adventure set in the late 19th century in the Balkans. A murky evil distresses the lives of the villagers of a remote region surrounded by snowy mountains. Your mission, as inspector of the King, is to rid these lands from the ghoul that haunts them.

Features:

  • Smooth low poly cartoon style graphic, musical elements of traditional Balkan songs, for a deep immersion in the tale.
  • Main game: six-chapter horror adventure, story inspired by ancient slavic folk legends. Follow the yarn to discover the darkness behind the curse of the Upirs.

Four extra games included!

  • The first one: hunt wolves in a lonely valley, but beware of the giant daemonic red wolf!
  • The second one: collect in the forest enough wood logs for the winter before the ghoul finds you.
  • The third one: defeat the horde of vampires emerging from their graves by swinging your axe.
  • ... and the last one: you will be the Vampire, looking for revenge! Kill all the villagers and drink some tasty blood!
