Rime of the Ancient Mariner

Based on the 1834 poem by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Rime of the Ancient Mariner is a puzzle-horror game about escaping a cursed frigate and destroying the demon that haunts it.

You take control of a young sailor that has been trapped in the lower decks of a dark ship. As you progress toward finding an exit, a wicked being with a piercing eye becomes aware of your presence.

Gameplay:

Candlelight casts a ray of light through the fog and mirrors can reflect the light around the ship. This light is the key to progress.

A demon wanders the ship. Lingering in his sight will capture you in his domain forever.

Key Features:

• Demon pathfinding AI to locate and chase the player
• Various modules to manipulate a light ray
• Captivating storyline hidden around the ship as it's explored
• Authentic model/environment design based on 19th-century sailing
