The Mark of the Devil is a colonial-era horror/adventure IF game developed on Choicescript. The game is narrative-based and recommended for mature audiences.
Synopsis:
The year is 1722. A pestilence known as The Rot plagues the New World, and the Witch Trials have been raging for 3 decades. You are an indentured servant of the Church, seeking unachievable penance for a sin that cannot be undone; a pact with the Devil, sealed with blood on the eve of your 13th birthday.
In an attempt to save a child’s soul, the Church calls upon your help to save a possessed boy, which thrusts you into a perilous adventure that can determine the fate of the New World.
You will have the chance to perform an exorcism, travel west across a Rot-infested colonial America, choose who joins your group, and fight to keep them alive. You will have to face human foes along with devils, demons, and creatures of American Folklore.
