Story
You awake in an unforgiving land overrun by mythological Pagan deities and their worshippers. In this controversial and unconventional hero's tale, it is your mission as the last bastion of your faith to put an end to everything in your way and bring back the old glory of Orthodoxy. In your path stand the various great gods of Slavic Paganism, destroy them and take back what belongs to you by overthrowing this world's beliefs and reinstating the one true faith.
Adapt to your very own play-style by fine-tuning your weapons through an engaging blacksmithing system and by equipping salvaged relics and prayers that will help you on your journey as you eradicate every vestige of Paganism found in this world.
Key Features
Methodical Combat - Each enemy has different attack patterns that can be taken advantage of through correct positioning, dodging, and by choosing when to strike accordingly.
"Non-linear Progression - The game world is divided into 4 main areas, and it’s up to the
player’s choice where to start and finish their holy quest."
"Rewarding Exploration - Every area has secrets and blocked sections that can only be
explored with the correct tool, rewarding exploration outside of the beaten path."
"Multiple Weapons - Uncover various arms from ages past, and reforge them into powerful
weapons through a unique and engaging blacksmithing system."
"Lost Reliquary - Spread throughout the world are the lost artefacts of the Orthodoxy, equipable
items that bolster your power actively and passively, allowing for a number of possible builds."
"Nostalgic Visuals - Retro inspired visuals that take influence from 32-bit era systems, with
low-poly 3D environments populated by characters presented as hand-crafted 2D pixel-art
sprites."
Challenge your beliefs - The path to righteousness is bloody and twisted, fulfil your holy quest, find the truth, and question your actions in this unconventional hero’s tale with a focus on religious conflict.
