Claudia, a talented sorceress renowned for her role in saving the magical continent in the past, is on a new, personal quest. Separated from her younger sister at a young age, Claudia has never given up hope of finding her. Following a series of mysterious clues, she infiltrates a secretive cult that holds the key to her sister’s whereabouts. However, the deeper she ventures into this dangerous and corrupt organization, the more she is ensnared by its sinister influence. What begins as a mission to rescue her sister slowly turns into a battle for Claudia’s own mind and soul, as the cult’s dark magic begins to manipulate her thoughts and desires. As she uncovers more secrets, will she manage to free her sister and herself, or will she succumb to the overwhelming power of the cult?
Gameplay:

As you explore, you will interact with NPCs, many of whom may be allies, while others are enemies in disguise.
Mind Control and Resistance Mechanics: As Claudia progresses, she begins to fall under the cult’s influence, affecting her stats and abilities. Players must manage her mental state and find ways to resist the brainwashing effects through magical rituals, gathering special items, or seeking out allies. Choices you make throughout the game can lead Claudia either toward redemption or complete submission to the cult’s will.

Tips:
Mind Control Management: Keep an eye on Claudia’s mental state. The further she falls under the cult’s influence, the harder it will be to resist their control.

Balancing Combat and Story Progression: While fighting cult members and magical creatures is important, don’t forget to focus on Claudia’s emotional and story-driven journey. Sometimes, avoiding combat and focusing on gathering information or making the right moral choices can lead to powerful new insights and abilities.
