About This Game

Gospodar's Tales is a first-person psychological horror game set in rural Romania in 2009.

You play as Ion, a man haunted by his past and by the consequences of choices driven by greed. What begins in a seemingly ordinary Romanian village slowly turns into a disturbing journey through guilt, memories, and events that may not be what they seem.

Explore a rural Romanian village and other unsettling locations, interact with the people who knew Ion, and uncover fragments of what really happened. Search for clues, solve environmental puzzles, and relive memories that reveal the truth piece by piece.

Inspired by Romanian rural life, traditions, and folklore, Gospodar's Tales combines psychological horror with dark humor, cinematic sequences, and an authentic Romanian atmosphere.
