“Becrowned is the manifestation of fans’ love for old-school horror”

“Becrowned is as close to an old school Silent Hill as you can get”
TheSixthAxis

“It’s got a great atmosphere, very freaky monsters and a nice blend of puzzles, exploration and combat. A great bit of retro survival horror that will keep you on-edge throughout.”

About This Game

A tale of a man who became a prisoner of his own ambitions.

Richard Torrance is a man who will do anything to get what he wants: with strong will, unbreakable character - rationality, reason, and cold-blood, fate should twist itself around his finger. But despite striving to shape the world to his liking, he has never achieved what he truly desires - happiness.

The more Richard pursues this simple, elusive concept, the more he finds himself in bizarre, disturbing, and surreal places that shouldn't exist... but are very real. What led him to a world of endless suffering? Uncover the mysteries of your protagonist's past to find out.

A world woven from the nightmares of a distant past

Sinners, heretics, and even gods - how could such things exist in this day and age? Yet, they do, and all of their deepest fears and nightmares become your own. This merciless, twisted world is a prison for those who truly deserve punishment. In this place, there are no innocents, no kindness, and no mercy. Will you prove this truth or will you challenge it?

Varied gameplay, the possible and the impossible

Explore a vast castle and its surroundings, a decrepit hospital, and a strangely liminal motel. Discover hidden passages and optional puzzles. Battle a variety of enemies, each requiring unique combat tactics, and defeat challenging bosses. Survive this nightmare. Fulfil your desire. No matter the cost!

A nonlinear storyline and a living world that responds to the player's choices.

You will face countless choices, each impacting the fates of others imprisoned in this world. Will you spare a repentant killer? Will you risk your resources to save a random martyr from a gruesome death? Is it worth the cost? You will suffer the consequences. The game features multiple endings, ranging from happy to a true nightmare. Will you walk the path of a hero, or just kill 'em all? The choice is yours.
