Look, I'm aware that the phrase "indie RPG set in early modern Hungary" sounds almost excruciatingly arch and high-falutin', but for your own sake, don't touch that dial—Felvidek has the juice. I was already excited for this singular-looking JRPG-style project, but after making my way through its ~45-minute demo, I'm here to say it's a must-play.
Felvidek centers on Pavol, a grinning, heartbroken buffoon of a knight tasked with investigating the arson of a nearby castle in the Slovak Highlands of the 15th century. Amid violence between Catholics, the proto-Protestant Hussites, and Ottoman Turks, something uncanny and supernatural seems to be unfolding that involves Pavol's estranged wife.
