Description
About This Game
By Aeternum Ludos.
A first-person stealth horror game with a retro-looking aesthetic. The game focuses on creating a mix between outlast and silent hill. Be presented to unique visuals, enemies, and mechanics that work together to create a unique and immersive recreation of a "slasher horror game".
You are Robert Franklin, a young man who HAS to rescue his brother Matt, who has been missing for days. You'll be guided by letters left by your brother. Not only that, but you'll must unlock all the secrets of the Franklin's family, in order to save both of you.
Each of the game levels has a representation based on Robert's experiences. You will need to not only explore dark and obscure places, but also always be careful of a unique monster that will HUNT you.
What would you do if you had lost your father, and your brother sent you a strange letter telling you that he can bring him back to life?
Cursed Letters presents a somber and melancholic story that has two layers, both being presented to the player and connected to the gameplay, exploring a single word theme. Guilt.
The visuals of the game will bite back on your nostalgia for 80s and early 90s movies, as well as feeling unique on their own against other horror games in the genre. For that reason, we choose a mix between a (G)old “ps1-like” aesthetic alongside some more refined shaders, lighting, and effects.
You'll have to think carefully and use your mind to understand the rooms, paths, and hiding spots around you. To not only find a way out, but also prevent the enemies from taking you down.
A constant feeling of weakness will surround you, along an always present enemy. You'll have to improvise with your items and the tools that you'll find around the levels, either by using them to make noises and attract the enemies, or to disarm traps.
Most of the time the enemies will be roaming around you, for that reason hiding inside certain places and containers will be necessary to survive.
Each time you are damaged by the enemies, you will suffer one direct damage to a limb. If it is your leg, then your movements will become slower, If it is your head, then your vision will become blurry or the sounds won’t be as easy to know where they are coming from.
But, with each hit, you'll be also given a new way to approach the challenges ahead of you.
Contains intense violence, gore, and strong language.
The game has depictions of suicide and heavy emotions.
