We spent the last year making a horror game based on the Hoia Baciu forest from Romania.
Hey everyone! We are Black Bear Studios, a small indie team based in Romania. We’re beyond excited to announce that the Pre-Alpha for our first project is officially LIVE on Steam!
Dark Realms: Mysteries of Hoia Baciu Forest is a first-person psychological horror game set in a place we know well - the real-world "Bermuda Triangle" of Transylvania.
You step into the shoes of Alex, a man haunted by grief and led into the woods by a voice that shouldn't exist. Can you survive all the horrors the forest has to offer?
A quick note: This is a very early Pre-Alpha. It’s the foundation of our game and it`s only the start.
Anyway, here`s the first trailer we`ve made. Enjoy it!
