Explore, fight and survive in a eerie 90’s Polish lakeside town that has slowly been engulfed by something sinister
Polish developer and publisher Sonka has announced their upcoming psychological horror survival game, Holstin
Holstin is set in an eerie, isolated 90’s Polish lakeside town in which an ominous presence has slowly enveloped everything and everyone. A close colleague of yours came here, looking for answers to a newspaper story. But after a series of incoherent and troubling messages, all contact was lost. Now you need to venture into this psyche-shattering town to find out the truth and the fate of your friend.
The game is heavily inspired by the Resident Evil and Silent Hill series with the narrative team aiming for a darker Twin Peaks feel.

Holstin uses 2XD Rendering technology which allows the team to create real time lighting in a pixel-art game. A Steam demo will be released in January 2023.
Holstin will have full English and Polish voice acting and will be coming to PC and console sometime in 2023
