MazM, the studio behind Growing Seeds, has released a chilling new short-form visual novel on Android: The Black Cat: Usher's Legacy. This game plunges players into the unsettling world of Edgar Allan Poe's classic tales.

Familiar with Edgar Allan Poe's Works?

Drawing inspiration from Poe's chilling short stories, particularly The Black Cat, The Fall of the House of Usher, and elements of The Tell-Tale Heart, The Black Cat: Usher's Legacy delivers a gripping narrative filled with guilt, madness, and terrifying realities that blur the line between the tangible and the imagined. If you're familiar with Poe's style, you'll recognize the signature blend of psychological horror and pervasive dread. Death isn't merely an ending; it's a palpable presence woven into the fabric of daily life, mirroring Poe's signature themes.

The game explores creeping dread, hidden tragedies, and the confrontation of inner demons. The horror is primarily psychological, delving into themes of evil, fate, and the inescapable consequences of buried secrets.

MazM's signature storytelling shines through, with a narrative-driven experience enhanced by dark visuals and a haunting soundtrack perfectly complementing the gothic atmosphere. See it in action:
