Awesome game. Good things are many: the story, the characters, the myths and legends, the inside of paganism and religion in Russia, not very often viewed in the video games and popular culture. Cons could be some minor issues in battles, which you can turn to your own good.

The intro is very poorly written, barely made sense. You should invest in a better script. The concept and graphics are quite ok, but the plot and motivation is dumb.

Игра пройдена на уровне сложности – Осатанение! Удивительно, для меня, но игра получилась крайне достойной. Всегда с удовольствием прохожу хорошие приключения с боёвкой построенной на карточной системе, а здесь не только повествовательное приключение с этой системой, но оно ещё и основано на русском фольклоре и мифологии, да к тому же, с использованием старо русских языковых выражений и определений, что само по себе просто невероятно. Причём сделана игра с душой и очень бережным отношением к исходному материалу за что авторам игры низкий поклон и безмерное уважение. Ну и по самой игре, карточная система порадовала своей продуманностью, на моём уровне сложности, играть было крайне интересно, по графике, 2D оформление сделано очень качественно и красиво, а вот 3D это просто печаль-беда, всегда считал и считаю по сей день, что игры должны быть не только интересными, но и красивыми, а лучше очень красивыми. Могут быть разные причины 3D графике из 90-ых годов прошлого столетья в данной игре, но всё же, дюже хочется, чтобы в следующих играх разработчиков у них появилась возможность делать красивой и 3D часть своих проектов. Что же в остатке, повторюсь, игра получилась крайне достойной и хочется, чтобы наши разработчики не останавливались на достигнутом и у них из-под пера вышло много хороших игр. Оценка: 8.5/10

Le jeu est sympa mais j'aurais apprécié une version en Français. Même si je comprends bien l'anglais, on est quand même sur un vocabulaire assez soutenu, avec un thème particulier, voire poétique. De fait, des sous-titres n'auraient pas été un luxe pour ma part.

Surprisingly good. Dialogs, sound, gameplay - everything work together to increase the quality of aesthetic. The only thing that I didn't like is a quality of 2D art

it's got a cool deckbuilding system and awesome aesthetics, but the interface is often unwieldy and a lot of the dialogue takes far too long to say very little. everything outside of the combat needs to be streamlined in some way, because it's kind of a chore to do anything else. it's very easy to misclick and spend points or money without being able to undo. there are also some pretty serious issues with the click based movement in 3d environments.

To me this is a game that falls between 7.5-8 range. Not a big fan of the art style, but I love the deckbuilding and card combat. The lores and plots are also pretty different and interesting.

It's an average card-game style rpg, but the voice acting is good. There are some bugs and translation issues here and there, but nothing major. The pace of the game is a little bit slow if you decide to follow the story/lore.

Fresh Finally someone try to show east Slavic folklore and did it really great. Visual (7/10): great arts, music, deep atmosphere feeling, great card design, buut 3D is ugly. it's an indie game, so just be prepared to see square faces. Gameplay (9/10): game play is really interesting, because you change you cards in deck after each chapter of adventure, and play a different play style. Very entertaining "magic durak" game to relax after main adventures and card puzzles to get some new items. In game you have some balancing buf(items and herbs) and debuff(own demons and humanity) mechanics. Story (9/10): All game I was really exited maybe not for the story but for the lore and how authors connected everything so logical in one story. Characters are also great, especially Proshka(black cat). All in all, you have to play this game because it so unique, to miss such opportunity to try something fresh and new in industry.

You don't need to talk much about this game, you have to play this game. A very beautiful Russian-Orthodox-pagan setting, the music is very good and there are a lot of pleasant gameplay features for the interaction with which the game encourages sooner or later. Very good voice acting of the characters is just 100 percent immersion in the history and world of Cherdyn county. Well, a very good card battle system, although there is no imbalance in the later stages of the game, but still. Well, in the end, we can mention that pumping skills is pleasant (although it is linear from part). Game super 8.7 house cats out of 10

When at the end of the game they started talking about the Communists, the game immediately received 1 point from me. What for? /// Когда в конце игры начали рассказывать про коммунистов - игра сразу получила от меня 1 балл. Зачем?

Incredible game, I've walked it through in one breath. Love how it brings Russian folklore to a wider international audience. A great thing is you can get different endings according to your choices in the game.

The game is like Slay The Spire but with an actual well writen and voiced plot and minus the rogue-like elements. The story is good and the game contains lots of real Russian folklore. There are several original and interesting game mechanics such as "demon managing" (you must choose if you will send your demons to harass other people or suffer their debuffs or find ways to mitigate their penalties) and puzzle combat. There is lots of room for roleplaying choices to become a good or bad witch. And there are many options for build/deck customization. The only cons of the game are minimalistic graphics (this didnt stop Slay The Spire from being a great game) and that the difficulty is rather easy even on the "extreme" setting. I would also love if the "sin" system had more interactions with the game play than simply affecting some dialogue and the endings. Maybe some item or card interactions would be great. Or maybe i havent gotten that far.
