The End of the Sun is a new fantasy adventure on Steam, but it also aims to delight you with a particularly realistic time travel experience.
What game are we talking about? The End of the Sun is a new fantasy adventure developed by a small indie studio from Poland, consisting of three developers. An official release is scheduled for the third quarter of 2024. Currently, you can play the demo on Steam.
What can you expect? You take on the role of an Ashter, a time traveler, and land in an old Slavic village. Here, the boundaries between reality and myths seem to blur, and you should be able to experience some mysterious things.
The End of the Sun is a story-driven adventure, and as you go through the story, you should be able to manipulate time to set the various fates on new courses. This way, you will gradually discover new fragments of the game world and story.
You will travel back and forth between different villages and homesteads. As you solve various puzzles throughout the story, the time of day, weather conditions, and lighting conditions change regularly.
Developers scanned real objects and buildings
The world of The End of the Sun is heavily inspired by ancient Slavic culture. To represent this as realistically as possible, their research took the developers to several museums. According to their own statement (via pcgames.com), they scanned various objects and buildings to incorporate them into their game.
With this, they primarily want to focus on realism in design so that this time travel feels particularly authentic for you as a player. In the trailer, you can get a glimpse of the different buildings and objects, and when you delve a little into Slavic culture, it becomes evident how much love for detail the developers put into the design.
