About The Parish

After slowly getting used to the monotony of the hospital, a letter is placed gently in front of you...

The scrawl is as embarrassed about its content as the old woman is to have burdened you with it.
It reads:

We are all so glad to hear about your swift recovery, the state of drivers these days worry us all!
Please can you continue towards that stead, the old pastor's ever so ill and we hear he's not got long left.
We know this is a big ask, with your condition, but this is a delicate congregation, no sense on how to be without their spiritual guide.

She stares, interrogating blinks trying to tease out your faculties.

You won't get another opportunity like this.
This is perfect.

The Parish is a slow-burning, atmospheric horror game about tackling the mysteries of this church, its people and its founder, preferably all while staying alive.

Game features:
  • Lots of drab, awkward conversations not at all inspired by real life
  • The ability to sprint away from the beasties!
  • Multiple Endings reflecting your choices during the story!
  • The rich culture and wildlife around the parish (If you can find any)
  • Free access to the old man's pain medication! (just don't tell him)
  • The ability to choose what sermons you give!
  • The ability to resist devilish temptation by abstaining in a corner of the world!
  • A door that can be bolted and locked during the night!

Short and slow game where you perform sermons and decide your nightmares and endings. You’re a priest sent to an isolated church up in the hills. The elderly priest there is ill and unable to execute the service, so you will have to handle everything. After a few weeks, the elderly man's ungratefulness begins to irritate you, and you start waking up with a bloody head. Controls are simple because the goal here is to create an atmosphere and guide you through the experience. All you can do is move around and interact with the stuff. You can also run, but you are not in great form and will soon run out of breath. And because the game is quite dark, you have a candle that never goes out. However, it is still only a candle, so it is not really useful. While interaction points are not visible, objects will receive a white highlight when you go close enough and hover the mouse button over them. If you prefer a more natural feel, you can turn off the highlights and rely solely on the hand icon. If you’re not sure what to do, the current objectives are written in the journal. But sometimes there is no idea what to do. One way requires you to ascend to the roof, but there is no indicat…

Good game with a good story. Only thing I didn't like was how slow the main character was when it comes to getting around but I enjoyed the game overall https://youtu.be/3iR45tZIUNM

A really nice and proper atmospheric horror with a touch of body horror (my beloved!!) Any indie game/horror enthusiast should give this hidden gem a try 10/10 I got spooked by my own reflection sometimes
