As the story progresses, we alternate between Benedek and Nikolay, with some events witnessed from point of view of one of them, and other events by the other. The gameplay has us take control of both protagonists and explore the town. Some more choices on what to do in the final scenes would’ve been good too, otherwise it just felt like we were railroaded into that specific conclusion. Otherwise it feels a bit too barebones and ambiguous the way it is now. Without giving away any spoilers, I felt the ending could’ve used a bit more development though. There are very obvious Poe and Lovecraft vibes to the whole setting and story. I thought the overall setting and lore were quite imaginative, delving into the witchcraft and the occult side of things and making it believable and disturbing.
Saint kotar full#
It’s somber, grim, and full of horrible things, and characters like that fit right in with such story. After all, Saint Kotar is not a flowery and positive story. Some players may find it hard to play as characters like that, but I think characters with such flaws can make for interesting protagonists as it opens up possibilities for character growth.
Nikolay comes across as loud and hot-headed, always rushing without a plan and being careless. Benedek is highly religious and often comes across as inflexible and judgemental towards others, as well as quite cowardly and looking out for himself first of all. The more we begin to explore this strange town, the weirder things get, and the more both characters start to get pulled into a horrific plan of events.īoth Benedek and Nikolay are very imperfect people. In addition to that, a recent murder took place the night before, and the police suspect Viktoria.īenedek and Nikolay have no choice but to split up and start looking for her. Benedek, having had rather sour relations with her for some time, began suspecting her of having ill intentions, that she brought him into that town for some malicious reason. Benedek’s sister Viktoria, who is Nikolay’s wife, has gone and not told them where to. After arriving in a remote town of Sveti Kotar to watch a castle exhibition, Benedek and Nikolay wake up the next morning after terrible dreams.
