One-Eyed Likho for Windows

Save yourself from an evil fate

One-Eyed Likho is a grim first-person, adventure and psychological horror game developed by Morteshka. Drawing inspiration from dark, Slavic fairy tales and from games such as Silent Hill, One-Eyed Likho takes the formula of old-fashioned horror games and combining it with new formulas that greatly enhances the game’s horror immersion.

As a villager, you are bound by an evil fate that you are trying to escape from. Being stuck in a 19th century Russian village, you explore an unsettling and twisted land as you try to escape and uncover the mysteries before everything you fought for is naught and all too late.

Don’t go looking for evil

One-Eyed Likho is inspired by the dark, Slavic fairy tale called “The One-Eyed Likho”, who is an embodiment of misfortune and dark, evil fates in Slavic culture. It is a creature often depicted as an old, one-eyed skinny woman dressed in black. Recorded in the early 19th-century, players can now live through this dark fairy tale.

Players will embark on a journey throughout a haunting realm brought to life by the forgotten fairy tale of the 19th century. The game is rendered in an amazing greyscale graphic, presented in an immersive 4:3 aspect ratio. Investigative players will especially enjoy this game as the game has you investigate the secrets and learn the truth while teaching players the history of Slavic folk horror.

With its immersive psychological horror game mechanics and story comes with an Achilles heel. With it being inspired by and based on a dark Slavic fairy tale, players might be in for horrific encounters that may be a bit too much for the faint of heart. Combining the difficult puzzles, players might have a hard time exploring the game's setting.

Escape your fate, if you dare

One-Eyed Likho is an excellent example of a psychological horror game mixed with inspirations from older horror games and folk horror stories from one’s culture. Although the game may not be recommended for those with a faint of heart, it is a solid game for those who can withstand anything that the game has to offer.
