On May 31st, SOEDESCO announced that point-and-click psychological horror detective game Saint Kotar will launch on October 14th for PS4/PS5, Xbox One/Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. In addition to its digital release, SOEDESCO will also release the physical version of the game worldwide.
Developed by Red Martyr Entertainment, Saint Kotar was successfully funded on Kickstarter in 2020 and launched on Steam, Epic Games Store and GOG in October last year. Croatian gaming portal HCL.hr recently awarded Saint Kotar the Croatian Game of the Year 2021 Award in December, and the team then also made an appearance in a prime-time newscast on Croatian National Television HRT Dnevnik a month after. CEO, Game Director & Writer Marko Tominić shares what it means to turn a childhood dream into a reality by sharing his humble beginnings in an interview with Nova TV in April.
Described as a lovecraftian horror set in a cursed valley in Croatia, Saint Kotar is a story-driven psychological horror game with point-and-click mechanics. Players can switch between two characters, Benedek and Nikolay, and experience everything through their unique perspectives while searching for their missing relative in the occult-ridden town of Sveti Kotar.
In this story-and-choice driven psychological horror detective game, you play as Benedek and Nikolay – two troubled godly men in search for their missing relative in an ancient God-devoted town called Sveti Kotar. Here, an unknown presence preys upon the weak and sways on devil worship and witchcraft. Evidence points to your missing relative being involved in the grisly murders and the occult, but what is the truth? Are you also to blame for what happened?
Will you put the pieces together and unravel the truth behind the town’s centuries-old horrid presence? Or is madness going to be your fate?
Some features of Saint Kotar include the following:
- Solve the mystery behind your relative’s involvement with the town’s bizarre and morbid rituals
- Switch between two realities to get to the bottom of the town’s horrifying secrets
- Take caution as your choices will affect both story and gameplay
- Discover hidden locations and complete side tasks to uncover the whole story
