‘The Devil’s Folly’
A point-and-click adventure game about navigating a forest that’s slowly being corrupted by forces of our mythological past. Choose which path you want to take, and decide whether you’ll fight the corruption or join it.
This project was born from my fascination with British folkloric figures and their ability to shift in form throughout history; from revered deity to imported aspect to heretical antagonist. I’m also fascinated by the experiential and cult quality of early adventure games. You take the role of a clergyman looking to expand their religion into a land inhabited by the last vestiges of British folklore; whether you subjugate or save them is up to you.
