About ERLIK: The Ninth Branch

Set in a forgotten corner of Anatolia, this psychological horror experience draws inspiration from Turkish mythology and folklore to tell a dark, unsettling story about blood, lineage, and buried truths.You arrive at an abandoned village where time feels distorted and silence weighs heavier than sound. Houses stand empty, roads vanish into fog, and traces of violence linger without explanation. As you explore the environment, the village slowly reveals fragments of a past that was never meant to surface.The game focuses on environmental storytelling and atmosphere rather than constant action. Every location, object, and sound is designed to create tension and unease, encouraging players to observe carefully and piece together the narrative themselves. Horror emerges gradually — through disturbing imagery, sudden encounters, and moments where reality feels fragile and unreliable.At the heart of the story lies an ancient mythological presence tied to the land itself. As the narrative unfolds, the player is forced to confront unsettling revelations about identity, fate, and inheritance. What begins as an investigation turns into a personal descent, culminating in a truth that redefines everything you thought you knew.

Key Features

  • Psychological horror inspired by Turkish mythology and Anatolian folklore
  • A dense, atmospheric world centered around a desolate village
  • Environmental storytelling with minimal exposition
  • Carefully paced tension, jump scares, and unsettling encounters
  • A dark narrative focused on identity, bloodline, and ancient forces
This is not a game about survival alone — it is about confronting what lies beneath the surface, both in the world and within yourself.

It was so good that I decided to gift this game to 13 of my friends and unintentionally created a cult in the process.

Erlik is an interesting game, but it is a rough experience. The game feels more like a proof of concept rather than a full-fledged experience. The developer tries multiple ideas but never really sticks to one and with the short game time (could be beaten under an hour) it ends up feeling disjointed. Pros: -Music is pretty good. -The art of the mythological beings were good. -The humor was good and didn't feel like it conflicted. -Learning about Turkish mythology was interesting and could lead to interesting horror games. Mid: -Story is fine, but does suffer from the short length. It is a bit forgettable though. Negatives: -No settings menu. -Has some bugs and glitches. Things that should have collision don't. Such as: fences, cars, tables, and other objects. The intro cutscene seems to replay when resuming game from where you left off. -The PNG jumpscares felt out of place. -A lot of invisible walls to guide the player instead of making it diegetic. -The game just ends when you make the final choice. No final cutscene or text, just a "To Be Continued". -Quantity over quality with ideas. The inventory feels kind of pointless since you almost never need to use it. You get a camera…
