Reviews

“Maid of Sker is easily one of my top horror games this year so far, even standing its own against the AAA horror giants like Resident Evil 3”
9/10 – Rely On Horror

“In a horror realm where overplayed tropes are plentiful, Maid of Sker conjures up something utterly unique”
8/10 – Starburst Magazine

“Maid of Sker is an excellent entry into the survival horror genre giving a nice balance between running or hiding from enemies and the puzzles or objectives around the hotel”
8/10 – Thumb Culture

About This Game





Brave the nightmares of the Quiet Ones. Do not panic…don’t even breathe!

Maid of Sker is a first-person survival horror, set in a remote hotel with a gory and macabre history from Welsh folklore. Armed with only a defensive sound device, you’ll utilise stealth tactics to avoid death amongst a cult of sound-based AI enemies.



Set in 1898 and inspired by the haunting Welsh tale of Elisabeth Williams, this is a story of a family empire driven by torture, slavery, piracy and a supernatural mystery that suffocates the grounds of the hotel.

Created and developed by Wales Interactive with a plot crafted by the writing talent and designers behind the likes of SOMA, Don’t Knock Twice and Battlefield 1.



Features

• 3D sound-based AI system as the core survival mechanic.
• Realistic visuals featuring 4k uncapped on PC (1080p 60fps minimum).
• A chilling story inspired by Welsh folklore fusing psychological, gothic and British horror.
• Re-imagining of famous Welsh hymns Calon Lân (A Pure Heart), Suo-Gân (Welsh Lullaby) and Ar Hyd Y Nos (All Through the Night) from the spine-chilling voice of Tia Kalmaru.

With the support of the Creative Europe Programme - MEDIA of the European Union
