Om spillet

The plague has descended upon the city of Ludwig. You are the plague doctor - the last barrier between order and chaos. Walk the grim streets of a dying city and master the art of medicine in an age of pestilence. Diagnose, treat, and make brutal decisions. Enforce quarantines, burn infected homes, fight panic and whispers. Every action has a price - and not everyone will survive it…

The plague spares neither rank nor wealth. Ludwig is buried under the weight of death, panic, and despair. But your fight is not only against the sickness itself. You battle its legacy: the lies crawling through the streets, the fear poisoning every soul, the madness gripping every mind, and the heaps of bodies with no one left to bury them.

The City Magistrate, the Merchant's Guild, the poorfolk, the Inquisition, and the Church - all pulling the city’s shroud toward themselves in its final agony. Whose side will you choose?

To be a doctor in Ludwig means trading in hope. Dangerous, but profitable: everyone - from beggars to counts - is willing to give their last coin for another breath of life.

Buy rare recipes, mix concoctions, craft potent elixirs - and remember: the stronger the remedy, the higher the price of a mistake. Your goal isn’t simply to become the best physician. Your goal is to save those who can still be saved.

The game unfolds week by week, each one a struggle on death’s threshold. Diagnose ailments, battle diseases through tense mini-games, and perform miracles over a smoking distiller.

Your only companion is Bane the raven. He mocks, jeers, advises… and only you can hear him. Is he the voice of reason - or your creeping madness?

The Book of Plagues is a dark and deeply atmospheric game that blends moral dilemmas, black humor, and the madness of the medieval world. Inspired by the chronicles of the Black Death and classic literature, it throws you into the heart of an epidemic where every choice has consequences.

Will you become the city’s savior - or its final sentence? Add to your wishlist and don’t miss the coming of the Plague.

Beskrivelse av voksent innhold

Utviklerne beskriver innholdet slik:

The essence of the game is to treat various diseases (including venereal diseases) and injuries. But there are no any images of blood or nudity in the game. They are only mentioned in dialogs, and their treatment takes place in the form of a funny mini-game.
