Battle evil forces, aid commonfolk and travel across the rural countryside, where humans live alongside mythological creatures.

Black Book isn’t your average roleplaying game. Immerse yourself in a world of Slavic mythology, following the tale of Vasilisa as she seeks out the demonic Black Book; a relic said to have the power to grant any wish to the one person that can uncover each of the Book’s seven seals.

It’s a world where myth meets reality, and otherworldly creatures live alongside humans, but only a select few are gifted enough to see it. Demons, elementals, giant wolves, talking pets, and more bring this shadowy and mysterious world to life. Recruit evil forces to do your bidding, but be careful, because not every monster is what it seems.

Just as Black Book embraces the strong narrative of the adventure genre, fans of turn-based RPGs will feel right at home with its strategic turn-based combat. As you chase the seals of the Black Book, you’ll collect cards that combine to create unique and devastating spells. The cards you choose will directly impact how each battle unfolds, but it doesn’t end there. Companion characters and demon recruits add another layer of strategy to Vasilisa’s journey.

Inspired by games like The Witcher, Slay the Spire, and SteamWorld Quest, Black Book will draw you in with its beautiful, hand-drawn art style and hook you with its evocative, interactive narrative. The world of Slavic mythology is at once familiar and ominous, filled with danger and intrigue, and grounded in Vasilisa’s pursuit of powers that may better be left alone in the pursuit of lost love.

Black Book is coming to Kickstarter on May 5, 2020, at which time interested fans will be able try out a free Black Book: Prologue on Steam.
