The Origin: Blind Maid

The Origin: Blind Maid follows a corrupt politician who flees justice into an inhospitable region filled with terrible legends. His assistant runs away with the car key he needs to leave. As he searches for her, he is forced through shifts in space and time back to the past, where he faces the Origin of the Blind Maid and tries to redeem himself.

Survival and combat

You use weapons sparingly because ammunition is scarce. Fight only when you have no choice and flee when possible to survive. Special potions from a millenarian ticket dispenser improve your abilities, letting you run longer without tiring, shoot without aiming, run and shoot, or carry more objects.

Crafting and enemies

You follow an old alchemist’s instructions to mix herbs and objects into temporary abilities and black magic for fighting enemies. The Chaos produced by The Origin has created cursed creatures: some resemble trees, some were accidentally created by the Alchemist, and others are evil beings called Chimeras in ancient texts.

A shifting world

The Origin can abruptly alter your surroundings to disturb your mind, so you must be careful when turning corners. You can use the protagonist’s earphone, despite his near-deafness in one ear, to hear voices and sounds from the afterlife and put them to use. Solving puzzles is also an important part of the action; some are complex but intuitive.

Endings and new game+

You can redeem or condemn the protagonist to unlock different endings. In New Game+, you continue searching for the other endings while keeping the skills you have acquired. A TPS mode is also included.
