Ritual Tides

A narrative psychological horror game from the first-person perspective, set on the dark and isolated British island of Hortus. The island is not on any map, ships steer clear of it, and a person who finds themselves on the shore remembers neither their past nor the circumstances of their arrival.

Exploring abandoned places gradually reveals the grim history of Hortus and the mysteries of one's own origin. A cult known as the Empty Congregation has settled on the island, and monstrous beings inspired by Lovecraft's works lurk in its depths. Among the ruins, one must search for food, ammunition, and other supplies while avoiding pursuers and trying to stay alive.

Survival requires caution: ammunition is limited, weapons do not guarantee safety, and even moving around the island becomes a trial. Climbing steep surfaces demands control of every movement, narrow planks require balance, and a chase can turn any path into a deadly trap. On Hortus, the struggle for survival is more important than strength, and every mistake could be the last.
