Interactive Mystery: Visual Novel Unveils Poe's Dark Secrets

MazM, the studio behind Growing Seeds, has unveiled a captivating new short-form visual novel on Android: The Black Cat: Usher's Legacy. This game plunges players into the chilling world of Edgar Allan Poe's classic literature.

Familiar Poetic Horror

Inspired by Poe's unsettling tales, particularly "The Black Cat" and "The Fall of the House of Usher," with elements of "The Tell-Tale Heart," The Black Cat: Usher's Legacy delivers a gripping experience steeped in guilt, madness, and unsettling realities. Fans of Poe's work will recognize the signature blend of psychological horror and inescapable dread. Death isn't merely an ending; it's a pervasive presence woven into the fabric of the game's world, mirroring Poe's masterful storytelling.

Expect creeping dread, hidden tragedies, and confrontations with the darkest corners of the human psyche. The horror is primarily psychological, exploring themes of evil, fate, and the burdens people try, and fail, to bury.

MazM's signature storytelling style shines through. The Black Cat: Usher's Legacy boasts a narrative-driven gameplay experience enhanced by dark visuals and a haunting soundtrack perfectly complementing the game's atmosphere. View the trailer below:
