Explore an isolated village haunted by an ancient ritual

Experience an intergenerational storyline tied to the haunting traditions of an ancient village in Sardinia, Italy - a region rich with unique folklore - in this third-person roguelite horror adventure. 

The village is an elaborate maze that you will need to explore and solve the mysteries of the game - largely unguided. Die, and watch the village reconfigure itself into a unique new form. 

Solve puzzles and open shortcuts to new areas with tools and items you find along the way. Unlock every piece of the story with each of the four characters, all with their own specialty suited for different aspects of exploration and investigation.

Saturnalia key features

Multi-character survival horror

Discover each of the four characters' special abilities, use tools and consumables to open shortcuts. Manage your supply of matches to help your sight and solve puzzles.

A mysterious roguelite

The village structure changes each time all your characters die, but you keep narrative and puzzle progress across game-overs.

Non-linear progression

Investigate the ritual at the heart of the game through non-linear progression and a dynamic narrative. Play any event in any order with any character and see how the story adapts in real time.

Striking visuals

The unique artwork and animation used by Santa Ragione are inspired by stop-motion and rotoscoping film techniques, with a striking use of lighting and vivid colour palettes reminiscent of classic '80s Italian horror films.
