"Usher's Legacy: A New Visual Novel Inspired by Edgar Allan Poe"

MazM, the creators behind the acclaimed game Growing Seeds, have just launched an enthralling new short-form visual novel on Android titled "The Black Cat: Usher’s Legacy." This game invites players to immerse themselves in the haunting world of classic literature, specifically drawing from the macabre universe of Edgar Allan Poe.

Ever Read Edgar Allan Poe’s Work?

"The Black Cat" draws heavily from Poe's chilling short stories, including "The Black Cat," "The Fall of the House of Usher," and a touch of "The Tell-Tale Heart." This game is a journey through guilt, madness, and the blurred lines between reality and terrifying illusions.

If you're familiar with Poe's work, you'll recognize the themes of death not merely as an endpoint but as an ever-present force, intricately woven into the tapestry of daily life, just as Poe masterfully portrayed. "The Black Cat: Usher’s Legacy" encapsulates this essence, plunging players into a realm of creeping dread, concealed tragedies, and the confrontation of nocturnal fears lurking in the mind's shadows. The horror is psychological, delving into profound themes of evil, fate, and the inescapable past.

MazM's signature storytelling style shines through in this game, offering a narrative-driven experience enhanced by dark visuals and haunting music that perfectly complements the eerie atmosphere. Curious about what this game looks like? Check out the trailer below:
