Buy Heather Wreath: The Reporter PC key

Heather Wreath: The Reporter is a fixed-camera narrative horror game. You play as Edward Smith, an investigative reporter nearing the end of his career, who travels to the rural town of Heather Valley after being haunted by dreams of a 30-year-old murder and gruesome cold cases linked to the defunct Erickson Travelling Carnival. At the town’s rundown Erickson Brothers Estate, you solve puzzles, fight monsters and try to escape a masked figure pursuing you through the darkness.

The estate’s mystery

The estate is marked by rot and disrepair, and Edward’s investigation leads through a story of psychological thrills and symbolism. Scattered notes reveal parts of the estate’s past as you work to solve its mystery while Edward’s reality begins to fall apart. Crow feathers and a figure described as having six eyes are among the imagery surrounding the story.

Survival horror

The game uses fixed-camera gameplay inspired by 1990s games. You manage a limited supply of items and weapons while confronting monsters and solving puzzles. It is a prologue to Heather Wreath: Shoban, drawing on retro survival horror, 1990s slasher films and Lovecraftian horror.
