About the Game

A unique adventure, a stunning scenario to discover in one season!

Key Features:

• mature and creative narrative, exploring human consciousness and immersing in an evocative and chilling role-playing experience
• sophisticated and thought provoking gameplay: the player engages in “defense of the mind” mechanics, as the character is overwhelmed by memories and fights against her own inner demons, fears, voices of illusion, guilt, madness...
• tactical... with a twist: strictly defensive turn-based combat
• wondrous and unusual world: an imaginary and timeless world at the start of the Industrial Revolution
• dynamic soundtrack: keeping to the theme of self-discovery, haunting melodies guide the player, setting a dark, intriguing mood to match the character’s cold journey and mysterious past
