About This Game

DEMIOURGOS is a psychological horror about fate. In this world destiny is not a metaphor: it exists, and every living being carries a single line of it, theirs alone.

 Ulysses is the only one who can step inside those lines. He doesn't remember why, and he doesn't know he has this power.

 THIS IS A DEMO. It is still in development, and it is the first game released by Parthenope Interactive.

Slip into other lives and see the world through their eyes. In the demo you can possess two animals; many more will follow, because each one is a step toward what Ulysses is trying to reach.

Something enormous moves beneath the surface. Your only guide is sound: a pulse sent into the dark, an echo coming back wrong.

Your DCI phone can take pictures, and some things only show up through its lens: secrets of the game and fragments of its lore.

 Find them all and piece together the puzzle they form: a small easter egg

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

▎ DEMIOURGOS is a first-person psychological horror game. It contains no sexual content or nudity.
▎
▎ The game features disturbing imagery and intense horror sequences, including: jump scares; a violent car crash during a storm; the player being swallowed by a giant creature; a claustrophobic underwater section with drowning-related tension; and the destruction of the Earth.
▎
▎ The final scene depicts a large number of rats swarming the player, followed by a massacre: dead rats lie on a floor covered in blood. This scene contains blood and may be distressing, especially to players sensitive to violence against animals.
▎
▎ Some scenes deal with themes that may be upsetting to some players: the protagonist feels irresistibly "called" to walk into the sea and to step down onto subway tracks, where trains pass close by in the dark. These moments are presented symbolically, as part of a dreamlike, metaphysical story, but they may evoke suicidal ideation and self-harm.
▎
▎ The game also contains flashing lights, screen glitches and sudden loud sounds, which may affect players with photosensitive epilepsy or sensitivity to loud noises.
