The Parish

The Parish is a slow-burning atmospheric horror game. After recovering in hospital, you receive a letter asking you to travel to a parish where the old pastor is gravely ill and may not have long to live. You investigate the church, its people and its founder while trying to stay alive.

The parish and its people

The game features awkward conversations and the parish’s culture and wildlife, if you can find them. You can choose which sermons to give, and the choices you make during the story lead to multiple endings.

Staying alive

You can sprint away from creatures, and a door can be bolted and locked at night. You can also resist temptation by abstaining in a corner of the world. The old man’s pain medication is available to you, though he is not meant to know.
