About Ancient Anathema
You have to play for a poor student who is mired in debt due to the death of his mother. The only best option was the work of a gravedigger. But during one of the shifts, the owner of the cemetery disappeared without a trace. Read notes, look for clues by exploring the cemetery and its surroundings.
Solve the mystery of the disappearance of the owner of the cemetery. And do not forget where you have to live a long night.
What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players report that Ancient Anathema is a brief walking simulator (15-30 minutes) with jumping scares and easy achievements, though some found it atmospheric. Major criticisms include buggy physics, poor guidance, cheap scares, and most significantly, the game contains KKK references and imagery that players describe as racist content and pro-KKK propaganda, making it widely considered offensive and not worth playing.
This game is pro-KKK propaganda, wtf. Disgusting.8 found this helpful
Garbage horror game. Dont bother. Im on a quest of at least trying every game in my library, of which I got plenty from all kinds of bundles, not all though. If you are interested in my journey, check out my other reviews :)3 found this helpful
Ancient Anathema is a 20 minutes walking simulator. The game has buggy physics, very cheap jumpscares and... multiple instances of Ku Klux Klan (KKK) references and fully dressed members dancing. I'm not sure what the goal is here, but this game doesn't have a place here on Steam. It's just a bad and bland game with almost no guidance and pro-racist content. Overall, absolutely not recommending this buggy and racist game.2 found this helpful
Game is teribble, i literally got stuck.
Short and atmospheric Walking-Simulator, with some Jump-Scares. Easy Achievements, 100% / 15-30min. Price-tag 4 €/$ is a bit expensive, compared to length of game, but with a good discount, well worth buying.
Just 100% completed the game! Its a nice little indie wanna be spooky walking simulator thats super easy to 100% complete and its free. Check it out!
