Not yet ready to fully dive in? You can experience the FREE demo first!

Occulto is an indie adventure game crafted entirely by hand — a world told through intricate illustrations, ambient sounds, and environmental puzzles, with no dialogue to guide you.

You play as Eliot, a young apprentice of magic, who arrives one morning for his lesson only to find his teacher has vanished without a trace. What begins as a search through a quiet village quickly spirals into a deeper mystery spanning ancient monasteries, hidden sanctuaries, and exotic distant cities.

Someone else is searching too — a shadowy Presence seeking a book of immense power. The clock is ticking, and Eliot must solve the riddles left behind before it is too late.

Enter the World of Occulto

	Eliot is a young apprentice wizard. One morning, as usual, he heads to his master's house for a magic lesson I’m late for my potions lesson… I need to hurry!
	Something feels off right away: why is his teacher not opening the door? The master does not seem to be home...let's investigate further.
	Inside the studio, everything is in disarray, and a note points Eliot toward the village church. What a mess! What happened here? .... A-ah, found a note! Let’s follow its directions!
	Eliot arrives at the Town Cathedral, but nobody seems to know where my teacher is. Mmm... How can I interact with the townspeople to find clues?
	Finally he finds someone who knows the teacher. But he doesn’t seem trustworthy… He’s offering me tea… but I don’t trust him entirely ... Something feels off!

The demo ends here, but the adventure is far from over.
Here’s a Sneak Peek of the mysteries awaiting Eliot:

	Escape weird magical passages Wow! I hope I don’t get nauseous…
	Encounter and help strange creatures This elf looks sad. Maybe I can help him!
	Search for clues everywhere! Found it!
	Visit faraway places It won’t be easy to enter this village…

The Vision Behind Occulto

There are many great point-and-click games out there. Here is what gives Occulto its own identity.

The world is painted in an old-fashioned style with oils, canvas, and pencils, then brought to life in digital form.
The gameplay is fully non-verbal, designed to stimulate logic, lateral thinking, and problem-solving.
The riddles are custom-built for Occulto, with puzzle ideas made specifically for this game.

For a deeper look at the puzzle philosophy behind the game, this video showcases some of the unique riddles we are designing.
