About the Game

You've been hired to work a farm in the isolated town of Besmirch. The land is failing, the people are frightened, and the Baron’s tithe grows heavier by the day. Whispers of an apocalypse drift between shuttered windows, and every night unholy monstrosities move beyond the fields. Your task is as simple as it is impossible: keep the town alive long enough to save it.

As the latest farmhand, you’ll coax crops from barren earth, cook what little you can, and fight tooth and nail to protect every sapling. Each seed struggles to grow, and each harvest is a hard-won victory. Keep a pittance for yourself and share what you can with a town desperate for relief, while still surrendering the Baron’s due. This cursed farm is your lifeline, your burden, and your battleground.

Besmirch’s outskirts are riddled with hidden places, buried secrets, forgotten sins. Brave the Baron's crumbling Mansion; scavenging what you can from its haunted depths. Explore while daylight lasts, for when night comes, demons awake. You must hurry home, seal the doors, and pray your faith does not fail you.

The people of Besmirch pass judgement by omens as much as deeds, and their blessings turn to curses when hunger rises. To stay in their good graces, you must walk carefully between superstition, devotion, and the secrets they refuse to share. With their perception poisoned by desperation, you must prove you are worth more alive than banished.

Xbox Controller support. Mouse and Keyboard may be needed occasionally.
