About This Game

The Ninth Witch’s Jail is a anomaly-hunting game set in the Middle Ages in which you play as an executioner hired to kill a witch.

STORY

Nine witches have been arrested and imprisoned, awaiting execution. But everyone who has entered the prison has come out insane. And the witches' evil influence is starting to spread.

You are hired to put an end to this curse by reaching the cell at the end of the prison and killing the witch hiding inside it.

GAMEPLAY

To win the game, you must traverse the prison and reach its end.
When you exit a corridor, it seems like you're back at the same corridor, repeating itself in a seemingly endless loop.

To progress to the next hallway, you have to observe your surroundings and spot the differences in the environment.

If you correctly identified the presence or absence of an anomaly, you will progress torward the witch. If you make a mistake, you’ll be sent back to the beginning of the prison.

You’ll need to get 9 correct answers in a row to reach the witch and the end of the game.
