Harvest Hunt is a single player, first-person survival horror game with a blend of rogue-lite elements, where every run is asking you to adapt in different ways in order to survive. Experience a dark folk-horror tale of a cursed village set in a suffocating atmosphere filled with dread, within the beautifully painterly rendered village of Luna Nova.
Ambrosia, the precious resource scattered around the cornfields, grows in strange ways and the hunger for it is strong. During the night, enter the cursed land of Luna Nova and harvest Ambrosia to keep your village alive. But beware, the Devourer is prowling the fields and is tainting it. In a race against the clock, turn off your lantern to sneak and hide, or fight and banish the Devourer for a bigger reward.
Tentacle creatures, poisoned waters and other dangerous calamities plague Luna Nova. But there is still hope. During the day, experience the enigmatic Whispers, a tarot-inspired system providing endless permutations of calamities but also blessings. Play multiple tense 10-15 minute runs over the course of 5 challenging harvest seasons where your abilities reset with each season and the Devourer evolves and grows stronger.
A pricey voodoo doll made of wood or a free rusty pitchfork? An ability to build hideouts in the fields or to heal you while crouched? Unlock a myriad of otherworldly weapons and abilities for your Warden and village and build your own deck to suit your needs. Will you sacrifice your own health to equip them? Choose your playstyle and survive.
An aristocrat far removed from wealth and ease, a priest left armed with his sacred verses; what led them here, and why do these ethereal Whispers haunt their every step? Embody a colorful cast of characters and explore the lives of these seemingly ordinary villagers through the eyes of a modern day Investigator plagued with the same curse and running out of time…
