Enotria: The Last Song is an Action/RPG Soulslike set in a fantasy world based off Italian folklore and culture.

Inspired by Italian folklore and mysteries, Enotria: The Last Song is a unique soulslike experience that invites players to wear role-altering masks and wield the power of Ardore to unravel the secrets of a land stuck in an endless play. As the Mask of Change, players will face formidable foes and alter reality to free unwilling actors from a twisted eternal script not of their making.

It is defined as a Souls-Like but unlike other souls-likes, we are depicting a world based off Italian summer.

The Universe is a Story, which unfolds and weaves the ever-changing tapestry, making up Reality Itself. Until a group of extraordinary individuals, used the power of the Story to trap it on paper – creating the Canovaccio.

Captured in the Canovaccio, the world has since degraded, becoming an empty – yet beautiful – husk…

Unveiled in the latest developer diary, prepare to face numerous adversaries demanding swift tactics and mastery of your diverse abilities. Explore the sun-drenched world and confront Vermiglio, the boss of the Mantelloni Garden area, one of the many Italian folklore-inspired bosses that await your challenge and the cloaks that populate the cursed monastery in which he resides.

Jyamma Games sought out to bring the dark yet captivating characters of Italian folklore to life with the world of Enotria: The Last Song. From cloaked figures playing tricks to condemned monks following a cataclysmic event, Vermiglio and the Mantelloni Garden mobs draw inspiration from these tales of betrayal and intrigue. Delve further to learn more about the inspirations behind these two menacing monsters.

The Red Monk of Assisi

Set in the early 1200s during the war between Assisi and Perugia, this spectral figure is shrouded in betrayal and tragedy. According to local lore, the Red Monk betrayed Assisi to Perugia by revealing a secret passage through the city walls. This act led to the brutal sacking of Assisi and the curse of the Red Monk, whose spirit is said to haunt the nearby woods, appearing after midnight to wander restlessly.

The Manteillons of Mont Blanc

 Inhabiting the slopes of Mont Blanc, the Manteillons are beings resembling goblins and elves, distinguished by their long cloaks that conceal a peculiar deformity: they have no feet. Mischievous and spiteful, they delight in pranks such as tying cows' tails together and disturbing sleeping humans. According to legend, placing containers filled with barley or lentils on windowsills can deter them, as they are compelled to count every grain before causing mischief.

The Ghost Monks of Mount Subasio

 Once monks of a monastery near Assisi, these spirits are cursed to repeat rituals and processions they neglected in life. After a cataclysmic event claimed their lives and destroyed their monastery, they were condemned to eternal penance. Witnessed as ghostly figures with lit torches, they roam the hills around Mount Subasio, forever enacting the rituals they once disrespected.
