Originally released on PC to positive reception, this surreal title from Polish indie team FM Simple Games Studio is now available for console players, with publishing support from Ultimate Games S.A.

A Surreal Lovecraftian Horror Experience

Set in an alternate universe shaped by a dystopian new world order, The Order Of The Snake Scale draws heavily from the works of H.P. Lovecraft. The game thrives on themes of cosmic dread, primal fear, and the unsettling unknown.

Players step into the shoes of a detective investigating the mysterious death of a woman in the eerie town of Happy Rock. What begins as a murder case quickly unravels into something far more sinister, as reality itself twists under the weight of ancient horrors.

Gameplay That Honors Classic Horror

The Order Of The Snake Scale doesn’t just rely on atmosphere—it challenges players with a mix of mechanics that keep tension high:

  • Combat & Survival: Face off against grotesque enemies while managing scarce resources.
  • Puzzles & Platforming: Solve logic-based challenges and navigate treacherous environments.
  • Exploration: Traverse a partially open world, uncovering secrets hidden in the shadows.
  • Retro Horror Vibes: From its control scheme to its haunting soundtrack, the game pays tribute to classic survival horror while carving out its own identity.

The developers have also crafted original 3D models and a distinctive audiovisual style, blending retro aesthetics with modern design to create a uniquely unsettling atmosphere.
