Decadant
A downloadable game for Windows
Step into a narrative-driven RPG where you'll walk the path of a hero climbing the social ladder in a world on the brink of change.
Would you alter the past if given the chance?
Gloomy St. Petersburg, February 1917. The nearly 200-year history of the Russian Empire is drawing to a close. The Romanov dynasty is losing its grip on power.
The aftermath? A civil war, a revolutionary experiment, approximately 4 million killed, and over 10 million dead from hunger, deprivation, and disease.
Could history have taken a different course?
Those seven days in February merely served as a trigger for the tensions that had long been building in society.
- Could the military have supported the emperor, preventing his abdication?
- What if someone other than Lenin had become the leading revolutionary?
How significant is the role of an individual in shaping history?
Imagine being born into a noble family in the late 19th century, during the Decadence era of the Russian Empire.
- How would you have grown up?
- Who would you have become?
- Could you have influenced the events unfolding around you?
- Whose side would you have taken?
