Red Thread Games wrote:Draugen is a first-person survival horror adventure, set amongst the deep fjords and towering mountains of Norway's awe-inspiring west coast. The game is a dark and disturbing journey into the pitch black heart of Norwegian national romanticism, as seen through the eyes of an American nature photographer, botanist and entomologist.

The story -- inspired by Scandinavian literature, legends and fairytales, as well as Norse mythology and the Icelandic sagas -- is set in the early 1920s, and delves into the deepest, darkest secrets of a remote fishing community where every single soul has mysteriously vanished.

As the player explores the tiny settlement, gathering clues and memories, and unearthing the truth behind a terrible tragedy, they will learn more about the history of the village and its inhabitants. And they will come to see that behind even the most innocent of facades lurks the potential for malice.

But there is more to this place than meets the eye.

From time to time, a woman in black can be spotted in the distance. Who is she, and what is her connection to this place? Who is the little girl singing broken lullabies as the sky begins to darken? And when night falls, and those last few, precious drops of kerosene in the lamp feed a fragile, flickering flame, what hides out there in the darkness and in the cold, black sea?

Discover the clues. Uncover the memories. Decipher the past. Survive the night.


This one is from Red Thread Games, who include people that worked on The Longest Journey series and are working on the follow up, Dreamfall Chapters [ > ].

The originally planned Mac version seems to have been canned.
