About This Game

When a mysterious entity known as The Void steals the Essence Crystal, life in the village begins to fade. Emotions vanish, motivation dwindles, and people slowly become empty shells of themselves. Now, Laisa must leave everything behind and embark on a journey through a world consumed by fear, uncertainty, and darkness. But the greatest battle may not be against monsters. It may be against her own insecurities. A journey about emotions, courage, and self-esteem. In Esteem, your emotional state directly affects gameplay. As Laisa battles fear and low self-esteem, the world around her becomes more dangerous. Enemies grow stronger, challenges become more difficult, and even simple battles can turn into insurmountable obstacles. To stay strong, you need to help others, build friendships, care for animals, explore the world, and discover what truly gives Laisa the strength to keep going.
