About

Elkwarden is a short, story-driven first person horror game in PSX style.

However you are determined to end this generational cycle and set out to find an occult priest that may be able to help you...

Story

"In the ancient tapestry of folklore, the Elkwarden emerges as a haunting and fearsome entity, weaving a sinister dance through the shadowed realms of dense forests and towering mountains. Legends whisper of a creature with antlers that pierce the moonlit skies and a hulking silhouette that strikes terror into the hearts of those who dare to cross its path. [...]"

Un nuevo entretenido, pero los laberintos se volvieron un poco repetitivos, aun así estuvo bueno

Pretty good game looking forward to play more of your games

A short solid trip into weird. And a fun one. Chaser usual annoy me but this was well balanced. Minimal frustration. I don't know how you managed that but good job. I like the story hook, and can't help but how that curse got laid on the family. Keep it up.

Not bad. I wish the elkwarden would mess with you a little bit before you entered the boss area. But then again, I never did see when when it was supposed to chase me, so who knows.

Excellent folklore based game! 

The monster design was solid. I liked the atmosphere and the chase sequences. I guess the final boss battle was a bit too easy, but other than that it was a great experience. 

All the best to you with future updates and games friend. Cheers! 

This was pretty good! That chase scene was kind of annoying but managed to get past it. Made a video on it.

cool video!

This game got me messed up fr fr. I ain't like the whispers n I definitely aint like that creature that was chasing us.

Nice game. The demon realm felt kinda weird without anything chasing you.
