Про цю гру

Kupala is a mystical visual novel in the genres of horror, drama, and folklore, inspired by Slavic legends and ancient rituals.

This is an Early Access version of Kupala.
The current version offers approximately 1 hour of gameplay, or up to about 1 hour and 20 minutes for players who wish to explore multiple story branches. At this stage, players can already make choices that influence the direction of the story, unlocking different outcomes.
The full version is planned to offer approximately 2.5–3 hours of total gameplay.

Little Anya arrives at her grandmother’s house together with her family, who are going through difficult times, on the eve of Kupala Night — the most important night for pagan Slavs. Among the creaking floorboards of the old house, in the warmth of her grandmother’s tales and the deceptive comfort of village life, Anya senses the approach of a mystical night when ancient spirits awaken.

The full version will feature a non-linear narrative with multiple possible endings, as well as meaningful choices that affect the fate of Anya and her family. Not every decision will be easy — only you can determine whether Anya survives.

The game is currently in active development. A free demo version, Kupala Demo, is also available and takes approximately 30 minutes to complete. The demo is designed to introduce the characters and convey the game’s atmosphere — the coziness of a rural home, the anxious anticipation of the coming celebration, and a slowly building sense of suspense.

All visual assets are hand-drawn using line art and linocut-inspired techniques. All sound effects and music used in the game are royalty-free and not protected by copyright. The game will be available in Russian and English.
Please leave your feedback — it will help make the full version even better.
