Women-Led Games Showcase: DOWNHILL

In Sisterhood Games' DOWNHILL, players will control a character who is aware she's being controlled by them. In the realm of Raghned, a realm where it never gets dark and humans and spirits live, Fade is the player's vessel. By using the dialogue options, they'll be able to communicate with the main character, including respect her wishes or impose their own.

Throughout the game, players can kill characters, but it's not a necessity. Decisions made will dictate who they are, whether merciful or not, and will grant them access to different skill trees. Fade can be revived in battle, skipping the need to go back to the last save as many times as the player wants, but there's a disturbing price to pay.

Here's what you can expect from DOWNHILL:

  • A self-aware protagonist who knows she's being controlled by a player.
  • Let Fade, the main character, have a say in actions or ignore her wishes and impose.
  • Decision-based gameplay, where what the player chooses will decide the outcome of a lot of elements, including what skill trees are available to them.
  • During combat, Fade can be revived endlessly, though there's a disturbing price to pay for it every time.
  • The morality-based system offers the ability to kill anyone.
  • Travel between two realms: the Dayworld and the Nightworld.
  • Solve puzzles.
  • A diverse cast of characters to meet, from spirits to shapeshifters.

If you're interested in the game, you can play the demo on Steam now!
