Thank you for all the support during the beta phase. We invite you to experience the complete adventure!

The world has grown darker. And deeper.

After months of silence, Enkhirydion returns stronger than ever.

Developed by Lemonade Soft, this atmospheric 2D pixel art Metroidvania is entering its final stage of development — and you're invited to witness the last breath before the storm.

Step into the worn boots of Pedro de Triana, a former crusader who returns to a homeland devoured by demonic plague, twisted heresy, and the echoes of a cursed manuscript: the Enkhirydion. Explore desecrated chapels, secret catacombs, haunted libraries, and infernal mazes as you uncover a truth buried beneath ashes and blood.

Step into the cursed sandals of Pedro de Triana, a lone crusader returning to his homeland only to find it ravaged by plague, heresy, and horrors that defy scripture. What begins as a pilgrimage becomes a descent into a labyrinth of sacramental decay, where relics bleed power and the whispers of monks echo through catacombs long forsaken.

At the heart of this tale lies the Enkhirydion—an ancient tome said to hold the final rites capable of banishing the demonic scourge. But truth is never pure, and salvation never free.

🩸 A World Steeped in Faith and Rot

Explore a vast, interconnected map spanning haunted villages, frozen cemeteries, forgotten mausoleums, and the desecrated halls of a once-holy convent. Each zone pulses with atmospheric detail: the mournful howl of wind through crypts, the rustle of corrupted forest leaves, the distant chant of unseen monks.

Pedro’s journey is not linear. You’ll return to old places with new powers, uncover hidden paths, and piece together a lore-rich narrative that rewards curiosity and punishes complacency.
