Black Book, the Slavic-folklore-inspired dark RPG adventure from developer Morteshka, now has a release date and will be coming to Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, and PC on 10th August.
Morteshka – which also developed the similarly striking, Finno-Ugric-inspired The Mooseman – describes Black Book as a “fusion of card-based RPGs and adventure games”, playing out against a bleakly beautiful rendition of 19th century rural Eastern Europe.
Players take on the role of Vasilisa – a young witch with the ability to control demons, still reeling from the death of her betrothed – and must set out in search of the legendary Black Book, said to have the power to grant one wish to those that locate its seven seals.
