Vasilisa and Baba Yaga is a spooky adventure set in a richly detailed world inspired by traditional Russian folklore. Players follow Vasilisa on a mysterious journey to the land of the dead, seeking the ancient power of fire that only the enigmatic witch Baba Yaga can bestow.

The narrative unfolds through a South Russian dialect, lending an authentic, village-tale feel, while an original soundtrack draws from folk songs of central and southern Russia to deepen the atmosphere.

Throughout the experience, a built-in encyclopedia offers insight into the mythical beings, customs, and rituals of Russian folklore, crafted with the guidance of a folklorist. This unique combination of storytelling, cultural immersion, and varied gameplay systems offers a haunting yet engaging journey into the heart of Slavic myth.
