Visual Novel Unveils Edgar Allan Poe

MazM, the studio behind Growing Seeds, has unveiled a chilling new visual novel for Android: The Black Cat: Usher's Legacy. This short-form game plunges players into the unsettling world of Edgar Allan Poe.

Familiar Poetic Horror

Drawing inspiration from Poe's masterpieces, including The Black Cat, The Fall of the House of Usher, and elements of The Tell-Tale Heart, The Black Cat: Usher's Legacy delivers a potent cocktail of guilt, madness, and unsettling ambiguity. Fans of Poe will recognize the signature atmosphere: death isn't merely an ending, but a pervasive presence woven into the fabric of daily life.

The game masterfully evokes creeping dread, hidden tragedies, and the psychological horrors that lurk in the recesses of the mind. Expect a narrative focused on themes of evil, fate, and the inescapable consequences of buried secrets.

MazM's signature storytelling shines through. The Black Cat: Usher's Legacy boasts a compelling narrative, dark visuals, and haunting music perfectly complementing the gothic atmosphere. Witness it for yourself:
