Edinburgh, 1828. Fear grips the city as it becomes the scene of murders and kidnappings. The victims' bodies gradually disappear for scientific purposes, but also for far more sinister reasons. It is under these dark circumstances that our two heroes, Joshua Gordon and Detective Norton, meet and are forced to work together against their will. However, like others of the Gordon family, Joshua is haunted by a mysterious curse that will affect not only his own fate.

Joshua Gordon's journey is just the beginning, yet his family history hides many more mysterious and terrifying tales from times long past. The prequel of the series titled "Blood Bond" delves into the past, venturing into the heart of several deeply unsettling events inspired by real life. However, the events in Edinburgh are not the only matters of concern to the protagonist and players alike. The danger comes not only from mere mortals, but also from an omnipresent curse…

Messenger of Death: Blood Bond is reminiscent of adventure games from the turn of the millennium, yet technologically it stands firmly in the present. The game features 4K resolution, sophisticated animations, realistic effects that breathe life into each location and amplify the oppressive atmosphere (environmental effects such as rain, fog, storms), the changing times of day, and more.

The gameplay follows the tried-and-true methods and mechanics of the adventure genre and the original game revolving around the Gordon family saga from 2003, making it suitable for both experienced players and veterans who want to reminisce, as well as newcomers to the series.

Joshua Gordon and Detective Norton are fundamentally two very different characters, which significantly affect the game in their own way, whether in terms of their behavior, interactions with other characters, or the places they take us to along the way.

The game's storyline and the fates of its characters will take players through the Edinburgh underworld and introduce them to its criminal elements, while also meeting the upper echelons of society at other times. The game will feature mysterious locations such as old dungeons, a dilapidated castle, an abandoned village, and a mysterious swamp.
