✨ PATHOLOGIC FEST✨ — September 1-30.

Join the #pathologic art challenge! The steppe is blooming with twyre and swevery, and soon, soon the aurochs will flock back to the Town-on-Gorkhon, responding to the call of the Kin. And that means that the time of Pathologic Fest is coming again.

Join the creative marathon in the world of the game Pathologic!

(Every year it gets more and more confusing. Pathologic (Utopia)? Pathologic? Pathologic 2? 3? In general, Pathologic!)

Just a reminder of the rules: the suggested topics are divided into Main topics (there are 22 of them and they are marked in white) and Intermissions (4 weekend topics, marked with color). Intermissions are not mandatory; you can take a break during this time if it gets difficult for you. It’s also an option for those who aren’t sure they can devote a lot of time to the marathon but still want to participate and are willing to cover 4 topics. Moreover, the weekend topics are initially designed so that they can be woven into a single tapestry, connected by a certain story, if you suddenly have such a desire.

Creativity of any kind is welcome in the event — drawing, text, cosplay, crafts, and generally any way of self-expression. Within reason, of course. You can also combine different art forms.

We will be tracking all works tagged with #pathologic_fest. Even if you only find time for one work, it will definitely be included in the daily (and general) digest. You can also find works by authors from other social networks where the marathon will also take place under the tag #pathologic_fest. You can find the list of Pathologic Fest accounts at the bottom of the theme image.

There is no additional theme this year, except for the one inevitably thrown up by the announced Bachelor’s scenario. Time. Tempus fugit, one wants to say, remembering Dankovsky’s love for Latin. And although there is no release date at the moment, which makes the vague stipulation about “coming out in 2025” look doubtful, the game could already be felt in the demo version where time becomes a special, malleable substance in Daniil’s hands. And if you are drawn to this theme, we suggest you go in that direction with your imagination, tell your story.

Please share this post on your pages so that every fan of Pathologic can find out about the event.

Are you ready for the curtain to rise?

Starts September 1st!
