Saint Maker

About

Saint Maker is an adventure RPG with visual novel elements where you play Holly Beltran, a woman trapped in a convent plagued by eerie disturbances. The game blends point-and-click exploration with dialogue choices that shape Holly's survival. You investigate cryptic symbols, overhear unsettling whispers, and confront visions that blur reality and nightmare. Combat is absent, replaced by tense decision-making that affects relationships with other characters and the story’s outcome. The game leans into its eerie atmosphere and slow-burn mystery, with branching narratives that respond to your actions. It earned a 78/100 on Metacritic from 58 reviews, praised for its unsettling tone but criticized for pacing issues. Available on PC, Switch, and Mac since February 2023, it runs best on mid-tier hardware. Shorter play sessions work well, though the base game’s 8-10 hour runtime leaves some threads unresolved.
