About this game

Co-op PVE experience play with friends

The darkness has awakened. And fear is your enemy.

When ancient rituals disturbed the balance of the world, humanity faced a horror it could never foresee. Demons broke loose. The ground split open. Cities were swallowed by the abyss. But alongside the chaos, ancient crystals emerged — capable of sealing the portals to the demonic realm. You are one of the few sent into the heart of darkness.

The Cult of Light — the last beacon of hope that had not been extinguished in the darkness. It was they who found a path where others saw only doom.

The dark crystals, which appeared at the sites of fractures, were not a blessing, but a curse.

Atmospheric horror in a dark fantasy world
Abandoned villages, blood-soaked altars, fire seeping through the earth — every step is steeped in fear.

Survival with minimal resources
Only spells, potions, and artifacts. No weapons. No mercy.

Fear system
The more afraid you are, the more visible you become to the darkness. Monsters sense it. Hunt it. Feed on it.

Character progression
Develop skills, manage fear, unlock rare abilities, and adapt to survive and complete your mission.

Rituals & Bosses
Find ritual items, bring them to the altar, summon the boss, and use crystal powers to defeat it. Earn boss crystals as trophies for your personal lobby.

You're not fighting evil. You're fighting yourself.
Pilgrim of Darkness isn’t just about demons.
It’s about the fear that grows inside you.

Gather the crystals. Perform the rituals.

Before the darkness finds you.

An expert perspective: Why does a heartbeat change the game?

To enhance the immersion effect, we joined forces with the leaders in biofeedback technology — Pulsoid.

“Pulsoid has been developing pulse-tracking technologies for more than 9 years, turning biofeedback into a tool for genuine interaction. We saw enormous potential in deeply integrating heart rate directly into gameplay, because pulse is a natural and honest reflection of the player’s state. We are happy to partner with the VIWESA GAMES team, which has opened a new level of gaming interaction.”  — The Pulsoid Team.

When the game feels your pulse

Thanks to integration with Pulsoid, your real state directly affects the game:

  • Adrenaline hunt: The darkness literally hears your heart. The higher your real pulse, the easier it is for monsters to track you, and from fear you will also drop items from your hands.

  • Visual tension: Your real emotions transform into visual and sound effects in real time.

  • Honesty with viewers: If you are a streamer, your audience will see your fear without embellishment.
