The Guise is a side-scrolling action-adventure platformer with RPG elements. The plot tells about an orphan boy named Ogden. He disobeyed the owner of the orphanage and, entering the forbidden room, found an enchanted mask. She turned the character into a monster, giving him a number of superpowers. He will have to settle into a new body, master monstrous abilities and try not to lose his humanity. A world awaits you full of demons, dying settlements, dark forests and so on. You have to look for secrets, hidden passages and hidden rooms with treasures. The game also has a system for leveling up abilities, and it is implemented in a rather frightening way. The local currency is the eyeballs of enemies.
