How it feels

A slow, atmospheric visual novel with a crude old-school art style and a darkly humorous tone, where you read through engrish folklore while a menacing presence looms.

What players say

Players are split on Samozbor: Rebellion, calling it a confusing, schizophrenic visual novel with a nonsensical plot but praising its retro visual style and music. Many tie its appeal to its origins as a troll project from the illustrator Derevotyan and the Russian imageboard culture of the late 2010s.
