How it feels
A tense, text-driven survival-horror narrative where you investigate monster attacks in a medieval village while confronting your own past.

What players say
Players praise the writing and atmosphere for bringing medieval Russia to life, and note that choices feel consequential in this short murder mystery. There is a mixed reaction to the use of untranslated Russian words, and some report a game-breaking bug in chapter seven that the developers have not addressed.
