OLOID: Horror Visual Novel
Ilya Pomazkov
St Petersburg, 2018. Egor, his wife Vera and their three-year-old son Fedya move into an old flat at 21 Razdolnaya Street, hoping to finally make it a home. Under layers of wallpaper Egor finds a boarded-up opening: a room that appears on no floor plan. And Fedya says: "Daddy was in the wall." OLOID is a mystical thriller visual novel with elements of psychological horror. The fear here is quiet: a hammer, old wallpaper, the meters in the hallway, and the past of the former tenants, which threatens to become your future. • Pry open the wall with a scraper or a crowbar, tell your wife the truth or keep it from her: the game remembers every choice. At the end of the episode, the "Your Egor" screen shows who you made him. • Three cases in one folder: a newspaper clipping from the time of the Romanovs, an official memo from 1946 and a crime report from the nineties. Three stories, and each leads to the same address. • Mini-games: a flashlight in a dark hidden room, a safe's keypad, a car radio, "tanks" on an old TV and more. • Oil-painted art: St Petersburg courtyards, wet granite, a psychiatric hospital, a morgue, cheap bars. • Full Russian voice acting; text in Russian and English. • 21 achievements.
