Black Book is a dark RPG adventure from indie developer Morteshka, where you play a young sorceress who has given her life to using dark magic.
Play as Vasilisa, an aspiring witch, who turns to dark magic after the death of her betrothed. Vasilisa must scour the land for the seven seals of the black book, solving the problems of the common folk by fighting monsters and exorcising demons. Featuring card-based game mechanics, character progression, and a world steeped in Slavic folklore, Black Book is dark, macabre, and deeply haunting in ways other RPGs are not.
Black Book is available for the PC, Mac, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. A playable demo is also available on the PC.
