The popular horror game, Maid of Sker, is making its chilling debut on mobile devices. Developed by Wales Interactive, this terrifying title plunges players into a world of gruesome pirate lore, brutal torture, and spine-tingling supernatural mysteries. Initially launched in July 2020 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, Maid of Sker now offers mobile gamers a chance to experience its unsettling atmosphere.
Just How Frightening Is It?
Set in 1898 within the sinister confines of the Sker Hotel, a decaying establishment perched on the Welsh coast, players navigate a labyrinth of dark secrets punctuated by haunting Welsh hymns. Drawing inspiration from Welsh folklore, particularly the legend of Y Ferch o’r Sger (The Maid of Sker), the game unfolds a gripping narrative.
Players assume the role of Thomas Evans, drawn to the hotel by his girlfriend, Elisabeth Williams, to investigate her family's unsettling behavior. However, the situation quickly escalates as the true nature of the hotel and its inhabitants – a menacing group known as 'The Quiet Ones' – is revealed.
These formidable foes are blind but possess acutely sensitive hearing, making even the slightest noise a perilous risk. Unlike typical horror shooters, survival hinges on stealth and silence. The gameplay echoes the tense atmosphere of the film A Quiet Place. A helpful gadget provides temporary incapacitation of enemies, but it's a resource that can't be relied upon indefinitely.
