World War I rages on the far side of the woods. You can still hear the shelling over no man's land. There are so many wounded. As you struggle to lend aid to the mangled men. You also ask about your missing colleague, Nancy. In your nightmares she's alone and crying. No one has seen her... and time is running out. In Obscurium, figures appear in the windows of the house. Unearthly objects plummet from the sky. And the patients speak of a naked child running in the rubble, dragging the corpse of an infant... The hazy portal of Mary’s ravaged eyes empowers a “theatre of the mind". While painting visions far more chilling than can be drawn or described. It also provides unique gameplay challenges and a close, almost intimate atmosphere. Obscurium WWI Horror and successful Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign. Which is definitely worth a look. Due to release in April 2021, DRM-free. Coming to Linux, Mac and Windows PC.
