To Whom It May Concern,

This letter is a call for help. A week ago, my ex-husband went to the house of the famous writer Mr Husher, looking for him after failing to find him by phone or other means. He never came back. After three days without any news from him, I pleaded to his manager to go find him. He never came back, either. Now I am here, alone, at the house, trying to find out what happened... Something is watching all of my movements. I'm scared for my life.

I can’t ask you to put your life at risk for us – but you are a journalist, so there is something you can do. Tell our story. 

Do not let us be forgotten.

Song of Horror is a psychological horror adventure that offers a truly dynamic terror experience: its antagonist, the supernatural entity known only as The Presence, is controlled by an advanced AI (Artificial Intelligence) that adapts to your actions and decisions. Experience unbearable fear as this otherworldly being responds to your way of playing and hunts you down in unexpected ways, offering a unique experience to every player and every gameplay where tension builds up naturally instead of coming from scripted sequences.

Choose between a group of 13 unique characters that will help you unravel the mysteries of Song of Horror and try to put an end to its nameless nightmare. Every character is different, and brings their unique point of view to the investigation, allowing them to approach clues and items differently. Their actions and decisions will shape the world: some of them will know more or less of certain aspects of the story; some will be more effective against supernatural manifestations... But all of them can die if the Presence gets to them – and death is permanent in Song of Horror. If one of the characters die, you will have to pick the investigation up from where the deceased left it.

"The Presence watches the player,” offers Carlos Grupeli, founder of Protocol Games, the studio behind Song of Horror. “As the player enters The Presence's territory, it responds to the intrusion and continues to respond in answer to the player's actions. However, even if you do exactly the same thing, it will respond differently. You have no control over it because it plays by its own rules. The fun part of testing this game - even though we've played it about 400 times - is that sometimes even now the damn thing still manages to scare us.”

The first and second episode will be out on Halloween and each one of them will offer a unique, scary experience set in a different location and seen through the eyes of 13 different characters with permadeath.

Every episode will offer new, unpredictable spooky situations that will scare players. The first episode will be located at the scary Husher mansion. But for the second one we will travel to at a haunted building with a particularly horrifying antique shop. Do you fondly remember your school days? That's about to change when the third chapters brings you to a cursed college building. An abandoned abbey, surrounded by a deadly halo after a creepy concert, is the location of the fourth chapter but the one that really gets me is that mental institution where you will face the ultimate challenge.

While Song of Horror's first and second episode will be released on October 31st but they won't be alone for long. You can join the rest of the characters in the investigation in December, when the third one will be released while the fourth and fifth will arrive to Steam in January and March.
