About this game
Harness the power of magical glyphs
Place explosive glyphs on Moon Shards to destroy enemies, shatter obstacles, and open new paths. Gather minerals and mysterious ingredients to forge powerful runes that enhance your abilities and change the way you fight.
Master timing, positioning, and strategy to survive increasingly dangerous encounters.
A living forest shaped by Slavic myths
Enter a mysterious forest inspired by Slavic mythology - a place that breathes and feels. Twisted fractal trees reach toward the sky, and something unsettling moves across the ground.
This is the domain of Leshy - the ancient ruler of the forest.
The forest lives and reacts to your presence, hiding secrets and awakening horrors as you venture deeper.
And in the shadows, someone is always watching you.
Time flows with the rhythm of the Moon
Collect Moon Shards scattered across the forest to rebuild the Moon and progress through its phases. With each phase, the world transforms - wolves howl, crimson light floods the woods, and the dead begin to rise.
The Full Moon is the ultimate moment - powerful, dangerous, and always tied to an unforgettable event.
The forest is ruled by powerful entities drawn from Slavic mythology.
Encounter witches, spirits, and guardians whose actions shape the fate of the world. Face terrifying beings such as The Nightmare - a wraith capable of raising the dead - or confront fire-born emissaries and nature-bound guardians.
Some will test you.
Some may help you.
All leave their mark.
You were taken long ago.
Kidnapped by Baba Yaga and trapped within her domain, your past was stolen and your future rewritten. Now, guided by fragments of memory and accompanied by a sarcastic rabbit named Bunny, you return to face what waits in the woods.
Revenge drives you forward.
Love pulls you deeper.
And somewhere in the shadows…
Baba Yaga is waiting.
CRAFT AND SHAPE YOUR POWER
Gather minerals and mysterious ingredients hidden throughout the forest. Forge powerful mixtures that enhance your abilities and change the way you fight.
Experiment with different combinations to unlock new effects, strengthen your glyphs, and adapt to the dangers that await deeper in the woods.
