About

Hermitage: Strange Case Files is a paranormal mystery game set in a dimly lit bookstore where the line between reality and the occult blurs. Players interact with eccentric visitors, each entangled in eerie incidents ranging from ghostly encounters to cursed artifacts. The story unfolds through dialogue choices, environmental exploration, and logic-based puzzles that tie into each customer’s cryptic tale. Progression hinges on piecing together fragmented narratives while navigating a branching storyline influenced by your decisions. The game’s strength lies in its unsettling atmosphere and tightly woven storytelling. Each case feels distinct, with puzzles that challenge observation and deduction skills without overwhelming.
