Disturbing adventure Last Days of Lazarus releases on Steam on June 22nd. Experience a story filled with supernatural elements of local belief, set in a struggling post-communist Romania.Check out the Release Trailer here.Iasi, Romania, June 7th 2022 – Last Days of Lazarus, the supernatural adventure game heavily inspired by Romanian post-communist history, local superstitions and religious beliefs, arrives on Steam on June 22nd. With an enthralling story about family, loss and dark secrets, set on the backdrop of political turmoil and a spreading malediction, this first-person narrative driven game is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat. “I want players to have an intense and captivating experience playing Last Days of Lazarus. The story is tightly packed into an emotional rollercoaster of mystery, shocking reveals, catharsis and sorrow. I love making games tackling sensitive topics, like loss, religion, politics and traditions. Each game I work on is also a self-journey of discovery and learning.” said George Remus Poiana, the game’s director.
After their mother's suicide, Lazarus returns home to his sister Lyudmila. But unexplained events make the country and even reality collapse around him. Looming death, social unrest and the supernatural threaten his sanity, yet Lazarus pushes forward to find the truth about his family. In a sick society where everyone cares only about themselves and their survival, can family bonds still be upheld and cherished? And with so much propaganda and superstitions, can level headed thinking still be achieved? These are the sort of questions the game tackles.
The story is split into eight chapters and you’ll be visiting five locations inspired by actual places from Romania. You’ll get a chance to explore mysterious settings, interact with questionable characters, find documents to piece together what happened to this troubled family and solve light puzzles to progress.
Last Days of Lazarus is a collaboration between Darkania Works and GrimTalin, two small indie studios from Iasi, Romania. The game was made in Unreal Engine 4 over the course of more than two and a half years.
You can wishlist the game now on Steam and prepare to solve all the dark mysteries it has to offer when it releases on June 22nd for $17.99 / 14.99€ / £13.99. The consoles version is expected to hit PS5 and Xbox Series X|S in late 2022 / early 2023.
Happy Gaming!
