Echoes of the Fey: The Last Sacrament

About this game

Magic meets mystery in Echoes of the Fey, a series of detective stories in a world of high fantasy. Play as Sofya Rykov, a private investigator with a secret of her own: she’s the only Human who can wield magic. Each episode is a narrative-heavy adventure game with branching story-lines and a standalone plot.



Sofya’s loyalty grows divided when she is hired for one job and blackmailed into another. Sofya’s childhood love and the Emperor’s daughter, Katerina, seeks her protection from threats near the border. Katerina’s rival Nikolai, a ruthless local politician, needs a dangerous drug stolen from the powerful Krovakyn Church and has the leverage to force Sofya to do it. All the while, Katerina and Nikolai clash over control over the city—and Sofya’s heart.



Large segments of The Last Sacrament will play as a point and click adventure game with dialogue in the traditional style of a visual novel. But unlike earlier Woodsy Studio games, The Last Sacrament also features an in-world tabletop RPG called RiftRealms. Inspired by story-focused pen and paper games, Sofya will play RiftRealms games with various supporting characters as dungeon master. Players will both build a character in RiftRealms to fight increasingly more powerful foes, and learn about the key players in Sofya’s life through how they choose to tell a RiftRealms story.

While the characters of Echoes of the Fey play RiftRealms with Sofya, they reveal their own prejudices and beliefs through their strategies. They serve as “dungeon masters” who try to create a gaming experience for Sofya (and thus the player) that is both entertaining and challenging. Kind and compassionate characters like Heremon might slip up by making the game too easy, while ruthless characters like Arkady transform the game into a harrowing experience.



Despite her hardships, Sofya gets many chances to find love amidst her adventures. She can forge a romantic bond with Nikolai, Heremon, Katerina, or Arkady as she tries to escape the dangers of her predicament.

  We've launched a Patreon!

  As some of you may know, we struggled to fund the development of Echoes of the Fey: The Last Sacrament, and our attempt at Kickstarter didn't pan out. We managed to cross the finish line, but it was a hard journey! So as we forge ahead with our next project, we've decided to try something different. We've launched a Patreon! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/31856198/3c7f74cfee995630738a741102f6258497fb3215.jpg We've already posted our first piece of custom content for patrons: a new CG of Michael and Lucifer from miraclr - Divine Dating Sim. Funds from Patreon will help us develop our next game, Crimson Spires, a blend of otome romance and horror (hint: there will be vampires). Meanwhile, patrons will see art, screenshots, and game development posts before we post them anywhere else. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/31856198/bc33062a542a277f7735ba9f6d21db0d6f12a29c.jpg One way or another, thanks for playing our games and we hope you continue to enjoy our work. Your support encourages and enables us to keep creating!
