An image brought to life
In The Penjukent Creature, you play as an archeologist who has come in contact with a person named Bertha who is in possession of an ancient artifact. It's a mural that dates back to the 6th century during the time of the Sogdian people and depicts a long-forgotten creature called Ebeğn.
You decide to spend the night in order to analyze the mural and read up on old text to know more about it. It's the middle of the night when you suddenly hear a noise in the house and proceed to check it out. Now, before you dive in to find out what's next, just know that gameplay itself is quite short, lasting only a few minutes. However, there are multiple endings you can unlock that encourage another playthrough.
Intriguing and engrossing
