À propos de ce jeu

Mysteries of Hoia Baciu Forest is a first-person horror game inspired by the real Romanian legend, and the first chapter in the Dark Realms series.

Story

You are Alex, a solitary traveler who ventures into the shadowed depths of Hoia Baciu Forest, drawn by a mysterious voice that echoes through his dreams.

Haunted by unanswered questions surrounding the death of his former lover, Isabella, Alex presses deeper into the woods. Along the way, he encounters unsettling figures lurking between the trees—only to be captured by the enigmatic Cult of the Root and forced into a dark ritual where he is chosen as the sacrifice.

In a forest where dawn never breaks, Alex must fight to escape the curse that binds him there. As he searches for a way out, he begins to unravel the truth behind the voice in his dreams—and the secrets surrounding Isabella’s death.

Confront unspeakable horrors: relentless beasts stalking the undergrowth, fanatical cultists twisted by devotion, a malevolent Witch who shadows his every move, and the haunting apparition of the woman he once loved.

Game Progression
