The creative adaptation will be released in a series format for eight episodes with the participation of real actors. The Perm studio Morteshka, which created the original project, also provides all possible assistance.
Black Book tells the story of the young sorceress Vasilisa, who made a difficult decision to save her lover. The adventure is inspired by Slavic mythology and invites the player to take part in card battles and explore a world where people live next to otherworldly creatures.
Black Book became the best game of 2021 according to the editors of 3DNews, and its developers are currently working on the mystical first-person horror game “Dashing One-Eyed” based on a dark folk tale.
