Informazioni sul gioco

Forged in history, breathed by myth. Binded Souls is a narrative-driven action adventure where the past and a machine-dominated future collide. Master the powers of Bulgarian folklore, survive the year 2252, and discover how what we do today determines what battles we will fight tomorrow.

The story of two souls and one curse, as well as the sayings that determine their path.

Alexander

Alexander works with data, systems, and models meant to be controlled. Curiosity pushes him forward, but every step is deliberate, calculated, and intentional.

Elena

Elena works with archives and digital records. She notices what others skip and keeps what others delete. Even when information is treated as disposable, she handles it with care.

The Future

Neo Sofia 
A city redesigned for precision and scale. Architecture grows vertically and beneath the surface, guided by autonomous planning systems. Life is optimized, seamless, and carefully monitored. The city feels complete, efficient, and undeniably modern.

AI Oversight

The world is monitored by AI-controlled drones operating above streets, borders, and critical infrastructure. Their role is to identify irregularities, anticipate disruption, and intervene before instability escalates.

Human Presence

Despite automation and scale, daily life remains physical. People meet face to face, gather in shared spaces, and rely on routines shaped by habit rather than systems. The world feels advanced, but unmistakably lived in.

The Past

The April Uprising

1876

A spark in a five century night. It is drowned in fire and reprisals, but it cannot be put back into the dark. The cost is horrific. The signal is permanent.

The Battle of Shipka

1877 to 1878

High in the Balkan Mountains, Shipka Pass becomes the gate. Assault after assault meets the same answer - the line holds. That stand keeps the road open and shifts the war.

The Battle of Doiran

1917 to 1918

Empires attack with force and numbers. Bulgaria answers with discipline and an unbreakable defense. Doiran proves that a line held can change history.

Bulgarian Mythology

Ancient powers. Cosmic beings of Bulgarian folklore. Creatures of shadow and light.

Prahlyandia (Kikimora)

House spirit of soot and dust, hiding behind stoves and under floorboards. Her scream crawls through the walls of empty houses. For many souls it was the last sound they heard.

Spas (Zmei)
High above the ridgelines, wings cut the sky like blades. Spas circles the daylight, waiting for the moment to get what he desires most and drag the world into a dim hush.

Vechernica (Sister of the Sun)

Twilight belongs to her. Vechernica arrives at dusk, lifting the final glow like a rite, and darkness follows as her blessing.

Bistara (Samodiva)

Moonlit clearings turn into traps when her song begins. Bistara dances with the wind, beautiful and merciless, and the forest itself leans in to listen. Win her favor or walk away.

Divulgazione dei contenuti generati dall'IA

Gli sviluppatori descrivono il modo in cui il loro gioco utilizza i contenuti generati dall'IA in questo modo:

Our core development is currently taking place in Unreal Engine 5.7. We are utilizing its full suite of tools, including the new AI features that assist us with Blueprint scripting and setting up cinematics in the Movie Render Queue.

Overall, we treat AI strictly as an assistive tool rather than relying on it to fully generate assets from scratch. Since our game is deeply rooted in folklore, it demands highly specific characteristics and a precise visual identity for the characters, which AI alone cannot accurately reproduce.

Descrizione del contenuto per adulti

Ecco come gli sviluppatori descrivono questi contenuti:

Our game features many folkloric scenes set in the past, during the period of Ottoman rule. While we have minimized explicit violence and do not feature sexual or overly violent scenes, the game does include several iconic battles from Bulgarian history. We have deliberately toned down the blood effects from hits and gunshots, rendering the blood in a stylized, non-realistic manner.

Regarding sexual themes, the game features mythical creatures called 'Samodivi' (woodland nymphs), whose nature in folklore is to seduce people and lure them into the forest. We have avoided explicit nudity, but the female form is outlined through their clothing to keep them attractive and faithful to the original folklore.
