Kholat is a first person perspective game focused on experience and storytelling, inspired by true events known as the "Dyatlov Pass Incident".

In Kholat you follow the path of a group of Russian students, that went for an expedition in the northern Ural Mountains. The team does not reach its goal, the entire crew dies in mysterious circumstances.

The rescue expedition is being sent. They find the tent, which is cut from the inside. Students bodies, incompletely dressed, are found within a radius of several hundred meters. Everything points to some kind of event, that caused sudden panic, which led to the tragic, chaotic escape. In most cases, death occurs as a result of chilling, but some bodies have other strange damage signs. Player is thrown into the area where the tragedy occurred, years after the actual event, with a chance to discover the real course of tragic events.


Kholat's lead narrator is played by one of the most famous British actors - Sean Bean, who is known for many notable roles including Boromir in Peter Jackson's “The Lord of the Rings” trilogy and Ned Stark in the drama television series “Game of Thrones”.

The co-author of the game, and co-owner of IMGN.PRO, Lukasz Kubiak, says: “Working with an amazing actor such as Sean Bean was an overwhelming experience. He came up with an incredible mix of emotion, drama and intrigue in the creation of the role. We are beyond satisfied with the results.”
