Dread Weight Demo

Trapped in a crumbling mansion, it’s up to you to outsmart and outlive an ancient witch hunting you down. Scavenge items to set traps, solve puzzles and discover secret paths to avoid your demise. Don’t be scared: encounters with ghosts are rewarded in this horror visual novel.

-Merging real world history with European folklore, Dread Weight is an unexpected package you won’t soon forget.
