The End of the Sun: Prologue

From the Devs

The End of the Sun: Prologue is a part of the full version of the game, The End of the Sun. It includes the beginning of the game and one mission that provides an opportunity to delve deeper into the Slavic world and learn the basic game mechanics. Materials such as trailers and screenshots available on the website are also from the full version of the game.

The End of the Sun is a first-person, adventure, story-driven mystery game, set in the fantasy world of Slavic beliefs, legends, and mythical creatures. The small village becomes a place of enigmatic events, through which the line between myth and reality begins to fade perilously.

Unravel the secrets flickering in the fire!

As the ashter, a Slavic sage sorcerer gifted with the ability to travel in time and knowledge about the otherworld, following the trail of the unusual fugitive, you come to a mysterious village. Unfortunately, you cannot find anyone there, at least not in the way you expected to. All you can see around you are burned hearths.

The game is inspired by Slavic mythology and legends. The story presents the mysterious events occurring during the major Slavic festivals in all four seasons, far away from each other in time. The gameplay is a mix of exploration and adventure mystery games with unorthodox riddles to solve, but the storyline comes first here.
